Schwan's Service Really Delivers

If you don't live in the Midwest, particularly the less-populated parts of the Midwest -- or you don't have a child who attends a grade school with a vigorous fund-raising program -- you probably don't know about Schwan's, the home-delivery food company.

In Green Bay, Wis., where I live, I see the little goldenrod-yellow trucks with the big white swans on their sides all over the place. They deliver frozen foods -- mainly desserts and frozen dinner foods -- at all times of the day and night, and their drivers are probably some of the hardest-working guys in the food-delivery business. The foods they sell would fry the eyebrows off our good friends at the Center for Science in the Public Interest, but I have a good friend who says, "I don't know what I'm having for dinner until my Schwan's guy shows up."
