I really miss the Hickory Farms stores. They always had a great variety, and samples! It was at the mall, not just during Christmas but a permanent store. It was always crowded on weekends. Mom would take us to the mall several times a year for clothes and lunch at Frank's (a slice of Sicilian pizza and a small Coke, and a single scoop of lemon Italian ice in a paper cup for dessert). We'd always stop by Hickory Farms for samples, a small Summer Sausage, and a 1/2 pound of a Smoky Bar (smoked cheddar/swiss blend or something like that).
