Internet Cookies
On 07/17/2013 in Question
Many times when surfing the internet I get a message saying that the site wants to send me a cookie. Doesn’t it get expensive sending out all those cookies? Is it safe to eat them?

Beware of strangers bearing gifts. Unless it’s Mrs. Fields herself, chances are the cookie you’re being offered carries a hidden price, an obligation to perform some service at a later date. Sites have a way of pretending to be cheerful givers, when actually they’re grasping and needy takers of any attention you can give them. Remember, mailing lists, even e-mail lists, are a commodity that can be sold to those people who call you up during the dinner hour and try to sell you everything from credit card insurance to Nebraska vacation homes.
