tired
Dear Joannusmolen I bought your Mais Flips in my local health food shop in the UK recently, I have seen them for a few months but was reluctant to purchase them because of the packaging, please, please change it, the face of the beautiful black woman smiling is ruined by an inexplicable covering of salt (?) on her face, it is unnecessary and degrading, surely you could have the same portrait without the covering... the contents of the packet was interesting and I would be happy to buy Mais Flips again but only if the image changes.from someone who rarely sees herself positively represented and is tired of it, thank you in advance,
