I've had bacon like that over the years, but rarely. I always though the meat was bad until someone said it tastes TOO gamey. What ever. I tried three times to be fair.

I ordered salmon roe from Lummi Seafood Market on May 25, 2026. My credit card was charged immediately for the product and shipping, but the order never shipped and remained in "Confirmed" status. I made numerous attempts to contact the business by phone, email, and text to obtain an update and after several day/ weeks, I later requested cancellation. I never received a response. After weeks without shipment or communication, I had to dispute the charge with my credit card company to recover my money. Unfortunately, this was a very frustrating experience.

It was ready for quick and easy pick up on time! Got a parking spot right in front. Board was a big hit and we are planning on purchasing MORE boards for Christmas (which we will be hosting). Can't wait to branch out and try more items off the menu. Everything was super fresh and was so artistically arranged it was hard to break into it but we of course got over that haha! The cheeses, meats, fruits, nuts...everything more delicious with each bite! So beautiful and even garnished with fresh flowers! Highly recommend this business and we can't wait to go back!

Yeah Baby Boards is a surprise in downtown Ferndale, a fun place to learn about charcuterie as well as a place to buy premade boards and sandwiches. We had a great time learning to make a charcuterie cup, owner Crystal was kind, patient, and made assembling the piece fun. These boards are amazing, they're packed with healthy and mostly local ingredients. Crystal has a style that ensures everyone who receives a board is impressed with the aesthetics as well as the assortment of veggies, fruits, and Italian meats. I will definitely return o Yeah Baby Boards, I think their charcuterie boards will make great gifts that will amaze the recipients. And Yeah Baby is a great place to get together for an activity doing something fun.

The time that Adam took looking up the exact ring and where it was was so impressive and kind of him. I've never had a bad experience in this jewelry department or the grocery store. I highly recommend if you're looking for some beautiful jewelry and extremely helpful staff to go to the Fred Meyer on Baker view Road. When the ring arrived, I spoke with Persia and she was so helpful in making sure that it was the right ring and I truly appreciated her help as well.

I admit that I haven't tried any of the BBQ sauces and I don't plan to. Here's why: they may have…read morewon awards and all but from reading the labels on Mild and Spicy BBQ Sauce bottles the fourth ingredient is high fructose corn syrup. After all that is known about the detrimental HFCS is not a natural sugar. It's just a cheap sweetener and a money saver for the food company that uses it. It can cause a variety of digestive and health problems. In addition to HFCS, regular corn syrup is used. Brown sugar is the 2nd listed ingredient so this tells you that these sauces contain a lot of sugar. There are very good BBQ sauces out there which don't use all that sugar and don't use HFCS. When I'm not in the mood to make up my own BBQ sauce, those are the ones I search out and buy.

This cheese from ferndale is literally the best I've had. I've been to Europe a couple times, had many imported cheeses etc. I stand by this assessment. These guys grow the feed for the cows, milk the cows and make the cheese at the same farm. That is so beautiful and impressive, and a great example for others stiving to produce a quality product. Anyways. I am obsessed with their mozzarella. Once you try it, you will be too. 10 stars out of 5 Stars. 200% achieved. Epic.
