What is all this talk about cookies? Microsoft defines a cookie as "a very small text file placed on your hard drive by a Web Page server. It is essentially your identification card, and cannot be executed as code or deliver viruses. It is uniquely yours and can only be read by the server that gave it to you."

If you personalize pages, or register for products or services, a cookie helps the site remember who you are and then when you click to the site next time, the site can give you back your personalized page. That's really nice, but it requires the site to know something about you. Is that a good thing? Is it an invasion of your privacy? I don't know.

Cookie Central tells us that a cookie is not a program, or a plug-in. It cannot be used as a virus, and it cannot access your hard drive. Your browser (not a programmer) can save cookie values to your hard disk if it needs to, but that is the limit of the effect on your system.

So maybe cookies aren't a bad thing. At QFLEA, we have a different approach to cookies than most other sites. We love it when you visit. We love it even more when you buy something from one of our four hundred fabulous vendors. As far as cookies are concerned, we have one major priority. Chocolate chips! Yes, that's right. Chocolate chips. I do have my priorities and chocolate chips are my clear favorites.

Now don't get me wrong. I'd never turn down a Mallowmar, or an Oreo, or a Keebler chocolate sandwich cookie. I think those elves do a great job with the chocolate sandwich cookie. And Pepperidge Farm Milanos are terrific. But if there's another cookie better than a good old-fashioned home made chocolate chip cookie, I haven't found it yet.

QFLEA.com - The Virtual Flea Market does not leave cookies on your computer. We don't leave cookies anywhere. We find them ... we eat them! Is there anything better than a glass of cold milk and a chocolate chip cookie? Well, yes, there is. A glass of cold milk and two chocolate chip cookes.
