Crafted

The vitamin and mineral supplement Airborne is “crafted.” In fact (or in adspeak), it’s “specially crafted.” I am reassured to know that the powder in those little packets isn’t made of random ingredients. Can Emergen-C make that claim?

Elaine caught crafted last night, when I wasn’t paying attention to a commercial. Thanks, Elaine.

  3. This afternoon I saw a commercial for the Mini-Clubman, which is not only "crafted," but "crafted" in Oxford. The term "en masse" is even used.
