Nabs

Part of this article sounded like it was written by Lance and trying to make exclusive use of the term "Nabs." The term originated with Nabisco (note that "Nabs" is just a short variation of "Nabisco"). In my area, it is certainly used as a term for any company's snack crackers. Definitely not just Lance. If anything, when I hear the term I associate it with Nabisco, just like I think of Xerox when somebody refers to a Ricoh copier as a "xerox machine." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.66.239.141 (talk) 16:01, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Heck, I can't recall ever hearing anyone use this term for Lance crackers and I am from the home of Lance crackers. --152.27.33.1 (talk) 13:16, 28 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ditto from this North Carolinian. With the addition that I don't think I've ever heard anyone use the term "Nabs" for ANY snack crackers, no matter what brand. It's a term I am completely unfamiliar with.--Khajidha (talk) 21:38, 26 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Lance Ito

Would it be appropriate to say the company sent the O.J. Simpson judge some of its products during the trial? I haven't found a source yet but at the very least it was in The Charlotte Observer, and I once again have access to their archive.Vchimpanzee · talk · contributions · 15:51, 6 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Michigan Cherries

Does Lance still manufacture cherry-flavored candy wax balls called "Michigan Cherries"? What is the origin of the name?

First, you didn't sign your post. Always remember to type 4 tildes (~ symbol) to sign your post(s). Second, no, I believe they were discontinued in the '80s. Third, they were called Michigan Cherries as my home state, Michigan, produces the most tart cherries annually, and in fact, every summer, Traverse City in the northwestern Lower Peninsula holds a cherry festival, which in the early '90s led to Faygo releasing a flavor (sadly all but forgotten and long since discontinued) called Cherry Festival. It was SO GOOD! :'( 68.49.126.217 (talk) 22:40, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
