To quote Tracy LaQuey, from The Internet Companion:
"Neiman-Marcus says it just plain never happened. They've never sold
cookies in their restaurants; they don't even take Visa cards. Recipes from
their restaurants are given out free to those who request them. The same tale
has also circulated as the "Mrs. Fields Cookie Recipe." The story travels in
low-tech circles as well as the Internet, recently surfacing as a bogus letter
to Ann Landers. Try the cookie recipe; they're good! Just do your fellow
users a favor and post the recipe on your refrigerator, not on the 'Net."
(She's really right; I've seen this message three times in two years!)
