[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 272404"] Sure. In the case of FVF, tinned is better, bulk is cheaper. Something's going on when it gets tinned right off the bat that [i]isn't[/i] going on when it's going months through the pipeline just wrapped in watertight but gas-permeable plastic, and that translates into a noticeable difference. Jarring bulk once you get it starts the clock at a much later point and, consequently, there's a different outcome. Assuming a [i][u]minimum[/u][/i] of two years either way (sealed tin / sealed jar), tinned stuff has some of the smooth, polished quality that German Virginias have ; jarred bulk is edgier -- like the edges of its flavor aren't folded over and back into it the way tinned stuff is. Pretty good indeed, either way. But different goods. FWIW :face: [/QUOTE]
