Nest: Day 20

Day 20
The good and plenty.

Old packaging.

The current packaging of Good & Plenty candy.

Repeat after me: good enough is plenty good; it doesn’t have to be perfect, it just has to get done. And other such cliches. They’re repeated often because we often forget.

Leave your perfectionist side behind!

Good & Plenty is the oldest branded candy in the U.S., but I’ve never liked its taste, its texture, and even its packaging. Thus, it proves my message of the day: Good enough is plenty good. Good enough to have kept this candy in business–since 1893.
