In all of the politically motivated back and forth going on about whether SPC Ardmona really are too generous to their workers, I thought it interesting to note the submission the company made last year disputing the Productivity Commission's decision to not offer any assistance. (Go to the second link here - it's a .pdf that is hard to link to directly.)
The company sounds really annoyed with the PC, and I have to say, it reads as if they have good reason.
In the meantime, one would hope the publicity might lead Australians to go out and buy some of their product. I certainly did last week - the 60c premium to buy a can of diced tomatoes from them instead of the Coles Italian sourced brand seemed the least I could do.
And perhaps it's also time for SPC to wheel out Margaret Fulton for a new edition of her "Canned Fruit and Meat Recipe Book" which appears to have come out in 1971, possibly as part of newspaper or magazine one suspects. (It was apparently only 15 pages long.)
I sound as if I am being sarcastic. But honestly, canned peaches are pretty nice, and we should eat more of them.
