I tried 28 dips and spreads from Trader Joe's to see which would be the best for a Super Bowl party. As a regular connoisseur of Trader Joe's salsas and spreads, I decided to try some of the chain's most popular dips. AdvertisementThe pimento cheese dip basically was comfort food in a containerTrader Joe's pimento cheese dip was soft and flavorful. VERDICT: I may not be an expert on Southern dips, but Trader Joe's pimento cheese option tasted like a winner. So it was unsurprising that Trader Joe's upgraded version of this familiar favorite turned out to be one of the standout dips I tried.

As chief growth officer for PepsiCo Foods North America, Raval has to balance the short term with the long term. Continuing to build out and accelerate agendas around longer-range planning across supply and demand, and using technology to help us be more granular. I think this was manifested in longer-range planning across supply and demand, as macroeconomic factors created an imbalance at times.

REUTERS/Nacho Doce/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsNov 16 (Reuters) - Cisco (CSCO.O) tumbled more than 12% on Thursday after cuts to its annual forecasts raised fears that excess inventory with customers was sapping new orders in its mainstay networking equipment business. Cisco blamed the weakness on a slowdown in orders in the first quarter, saying "customers are currently focused on installing and implementing products in their environments". "Now, they've exhausted their excess backlog and the business is stepping back down to lower revenue run rates," Jefferies analyst George Notter said in a note. Cisco trades at more than 13 times its 12-month forward earnings estimates, compared with the industry median of 10.98.

The decision on Monday is mostly symbolic and seeks to encourage other Spanish ports to follow suit, the secretary of the OEPB union, Josep Maria Deop, told Reuters on Tuesday. He said he was convinced there were military shipments from Barcelona because "it's a port that moves all types of goods".
