THUMBPRINT COOKIES

   I was in my local Food Emporium (under the 59th Street Bridge) and it was crazy on Sunday.  "Thumbprint cookies" were sold there.  I'd posted "thumbprints" from 1963, but this is earlier.

According to marketing analysis reports, if you are an aging member of the Pepsi Generation (late 20s, most likely a woman, turning a bit yuppie around the edges), you probably are about to try one of the hottest new consumer products in years - the wine cooler.

If, on the other hand, you are in your early 20s, a member of a racial or ethnic minority and a male, marketing nabobs say you're already a confirmed cooler drinker. Or you may be in your late 40s or early 50s, male or female, a jogger or tennis player, trying to cut down a bit on the hard stuff and looking for something with a refreshing taste. If so, you're probably reaching for a wine cooler right now.

No wonder the numbers look so good on this astonishingly popular product. Wine cooler sales went from zero in 1980 to over 12 million cases in 1984. Coolers accounted for over 20 percent of all California wine shipments last July; this year the percentage is predicted to be even higher.

Giants E.& J. Gallo and Joseph Seagram & Sons have come out with coolers, and advertising spent on the three major brands - California Cooler, Bartles & Jaymes (Gallo) and Seagram Cooler - easily will top $25 million this year.

Cooler scoffers say the drink, a simple blend of wine, fruit juice, fruit flavorings and carbonated water, is a flash-in-the-pan, like the pop wines of the late '60s and early '70s (honk if you remember Annie Greensprings). I don't think this is true, for at least a couple of reasons. The coolers taste better than the pop wines (which still are selling very well, thank you, in places like Joplin, Missouri, and Duluth, Minnesota). They're much more refreshing and, generally speaking, not as sweet. Also, the lower alcohol content (ranging from about 4 to 7 percent) appeals to the health-conscious crowd.
