Moroccan Barbecue


This is a new flavour in Morocco. And this is also the first time that I see the Arabic name written first (and with bigger letters) than the French name.

If you have a look at the gallery, you can see that usually it is (was) the opposite. Also in the Omani boxes. I wonder how it is in the rest of Arabic countries...

Sincerely a Cow



Envelope given by FinnBadger (the USA) and send back to Kate (the USA). I have always wanted to write a postcard in round!


24 non-LVQR portions

Sent by Heleen (the Netherlands)

Folded box which arrived inside a nice envelope with cowstamps:




Side-side

Sent by Heleen (the Netherlands)

She sent this box unopened (Heleen's style, I mean) to attract my attention to how many languages they use in the side-side. Why they use these and not those languages in the different countries remains a mystery for me. In this box bought in the Netherlands you can read all these words for portionsportionen, portions, porties, portioner, porsjoner, porzioni, μεριδεσ and puntjes.

See also the different faces of VQR: eye-opened, eye-closed, blinking... 


VQR truck & old VQR

Sent by John (the UK)

Collage made by John. He added in the back the picture of the old boxes. The cow was slightly different, the portions were just 6 in each box (so bigger!) and what I love is specially the slogan: Bel et Bon (='Beautiful and good', but Bel is also the name of the brand).


Ah, and don't forget to look at these cowstamps!



Chalet

Sent by Heleen (the Netherkands)

I have never seen this brand, with such variety of favours! On the back Heleen stuck the labels of all the triangles. I guess she ate them... not without certain consequences.



White Gold


The cow of these box of or blanc (='white gold') is not exactly laughing...
