Kennedy's Blog

Yippee! They've let me off the hook for my monthly editorial fix! A page that is often totally disconnected from confectionery, but there I go... I knew there was a real reason why I enjoyed it so much!

Generally, I haven't got a clue what to write about until minutes before I start hitting the keys, ideas surface from my mind and I ask myself why no-one has ever written about this before? I was talking to a good friend of Kennedy's Publications about the costs of Interpack - who isn't moaning about this two months before the show? Big deal. No, wait - he had an interesting point.

On his return from Interpack, with pockets emptied of Euros, Angus Kennedy gets the feeling that we are all becoming victims of the greed of the service industries.

Here goes. Mars and Mr Buffett purchase Wrigley's. I take an emergency night drive across Europe, through storms, to rescue one of the Kennedy's Interpack team. Or, Interpack charges £4.00 (8.00 USD) for a small glass of fruit juice. Which headline do I feel fired up about? Which of these headlines drives me to write in the early hours to deliver copy on time.
