OK,

this is getting stranger by the moment.

This string works:
10 oz portion broiled with Buzzs Season Sautéed Hamakua Mushroom

And this string works:
10 oz portion broiled with Buzzs Season Sauteed Hamakua Mushrooms

This string does not work:
10 oz portion broiled with Buzzs Season Sautéed Hamakua Mushrooms

The difference being that the last string contains the é and is one character 
longer than the first string.  If I add the character anywhere else it also 
fails.
