Moving from California to the Midwest 14 years ago, I was sad to find out we could not get Mother's Cookies in our stores. My favorite were Taffy. I would get them shipped from family :))) Today when I saw them in Target I was thrilled. I needed a snack before I got home. I bought the Taffy. I opened them on the road was dumbfounded by the taste :((( I will probably return them for a refund or just toss them. Sincerely, Discouraged in Illinois
