Recovering a Beloved Chicago Candy and the Story of the Family Business Behind It

Lanzi Candy's Cashew Nut and Rice Crunch was once sold internationally and on American Airlines, all while made out of a small family-owned factory in Chicago. A documentary follows the business's story and a quest to recreate its most popular treat.

Juggling Concessionaires: NAC 2012 Annual Convention

The finale of Curtis Zimmerman's keynote at the 2012 NAC Convention last week in Tampa was teaching a roomful of concessionaires to juggle - not the figurative juggling of their daily operations, but literal juggling. Can you find yourself in this video? For those who learned, are you amazing your friends and colleagues?

I haven't been to the Park West in years but have seen many great concerts there. I keep getting invited, but most of the time I do not know the bands. Do you? You and a guest are invited to attend Pink Talking Fish on Friday, December 14, 2018. All you have to do is click "RSVP."
Hello. We are trying to reach and partner with concessionaires at NBA arenas, specifically those not associated with the general concessions company (e.g., Local Restaurants, etc....). What is the best method to connect with them? Any help you can provide will be helpful. - Ticket Buyers Sports and Entertainment Staff

Electronic Liquor Electronic liquor may become a tool to end alcoholism https://i0.wp.com/electronicliquor.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/arkaycollec.jpg?zoom=0.800000011920929&resize=176%2C220This Innovation could simply revolutionize the way we drink. The ArKay E-drink is the name of the product, is a small molecule placed inside the drink. In contact with the tongue, the drink sends stimuli to the brain, the illusion operates, and the mucous membranes of smell and taste saturate and make the consumer believe that he is drinking alcohol. Beer, wine, strong alcohol, everything is possible. But beware, no drunkenness, no adverse effect, this is the advantage of the ArKay E-Drink. It reproduces the taste of the liquor but not the negative effects of alcohol. Beyond the enormous progress in public health, the concept is also of interest to the moderate consumer. John Taylor participated at the e-drink tour in March without alcohol, so he is particularly interested in ArKay E-Drink to reduce his alcohol consumption. This week, he went to the only bar that distributes the Arkay E-drink in Texas called “The Alcohol Free Liquor Store”. There an electronic liquor bottle costs $50. Richard Simmons, the head of the establishment, said: “We distribute the bottles in the US, we really believe in the potential of this new product and we really think it will change the habits of consumers.” As surprising as it sounds, the brain is totally lured. To the eye, it is water but the taste is there. John Taylor is one of the few American to have tested the concept. He is convinced: “What is crazy is that by drinking it, we really feel the liquor to be extremely precise in the mouth, we really taste the liquor, a true copy of the original one. On this copy of Vodka, I have the side very pepper spicy, a little menthol, a little vanilla, I have very notes Peppered and a lot of kick and burn, and it’s crazy! ” WWW.ELECTRONICLIQUOR.COM
