2 things to mention here (why? just cuz I wanna), my MIL is from Finland and says the butchers looked at her like she was crazy when she was trying to get a bucket of blood to make blood pancakes....

 

The other is that when my sister and mom went to live in Ireland for a while, she said that no matter what she did, she couldn't get the food to taste like home.fraggle <EBbrewpunx wrote:

(except for fried twinkies..i believe thats a russian plot..)

 

because of the pissoffthebrits treaty of 1804 all food products of north american origin and sent to the british isles have to be of the nastiest nature....

any time a british tourist enters america, the US governement assigns a team of handlers who watch his/her every move...all food eaten er seen has to ascribe to the aforementioned treaty

Speaking of which, my daughter cut her finger a couple of weeks ago, when she went in to get the stitches out, the doc noticed she had lost 5 pounds. She only weighs 90 now. She explained that she's going thru a painful breakup and just isn't all that intersted in eating right now, but it's not a permanent thing. The doc gave her a huge lecture about torturing herself and since she's depressed should go on meds right away. Ugh! What rubbish. Anouk Sickler <zurumato wrote:

Doctors over here are too lenient at freely throwing drugs at what they label as depression. Drugs aint always the answer, but it is a quick solution for the doctors. Bad Medecine.

It is said that the blues were born out of the plantations/cotton fields/slavery, with most (all) the slaves coming from Africa, using African, phrasing / music as a starter.

Obviously, in the land of the plenty, takeaways appear to be cheaper, petrol is cheaper, and portions and cars are bigger. Which would explain the sterotypical American obese tourist.

We Brits have a tradition of smaller portions - probabaly being an island and food not being so plentyful etc having something to do with it. Unfortunately American habits seem to be invading us. Thanks for Mcdeathburger and others like them. Im sure that there is something that you Yanks gave us Brits that wasnt harmful?, but having no memory doesnt help.

Today my daughter and I were coming home from a baseball game when we passed a SUV parked at a restaurant. Across the back of the SUV the letters spelled out The Pampered Chef. They are a place that will prepare gourmet food for you. They were parked and assumabley eating inside, a Denny's.peter hurd <swpgh01 wrote:

I thought that the defenition of a new invention is

when someone makes something work right efficiently. you know,

function.

 

davinci drew models of airplanes, but the wright brothers made it work.

 

but as for the other inventions.

 

I have been brainwashed by ths american school system

again, into thinking we are the smartest, best inventors,

I have never, question these things and just took it for granted.

 

 

I know that some machinces weren't invented in one day, by one person.

 

I am interested in giving credit where credit is due.

I meant what we now call power, you know light. I was always told

I thought it was Henry Ford and his mass produced model T. but then,

again, I don't like to read a lot about cars. I don't really like em.

 

Like I said, I learn something new. Don't tell my husband,

He worked for Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, and BMW, for the last ten years.

I cannot begin to describe what kind of a car maniac he is. He

has even been to the Mercedes Plant/factory in Germany.

I think it is a matter of CENSORING outside info, you know, not

Edison took Marey's concepts and improved them, but he wasn't the inventor.

Ford was a long way behind those people. Mass produced cars were first in

France with the Panhard company in the 1890s. I notice that Fraggle has

already posted some stuff about earlier cars which I didn't previously know!

Ah well.... Mercedes Benz is named after Karl Benz's daughter - they are one

of the originals. Jaguar is one of the early English automobile

manufacturers, but were bought out by Ford a few years ago.

Seventh Day have a vegetarian store up in Angwin. Lots of "weird" stuff. The vegemite like stuff, and a bunch of other stuff that is 75% salt are "weird" stuff. My ex-mil from h*ll insisted that we all eat the same stuff that she brought back after a day up at Angwin.

 

I've rarely eatten meat, never ate much beef, at all, but I was looking for a steak by the time she got through in the kitchen. If it wasn't salt on your salt, it was either watery or burned to a crisp! Guaranteed way to turn someone into a carnivore!

 

Of course, things have improved since then. Back then (the 60s) everything was canned. Canned fake hotdogs, canned fake hamburger patties, canned fake chicken pieces (nasty gray looking things!) and so forth and so on.

No Idea what the last two are?

Alot of what you have listed seems to be Mexican influenced? i.e. Mole, Tortillas, salsa, corn recipies?

Corn was grown up and down the east coast and throughout the southwest and lower half of the U.S. Corn tortillas were used up and down the coast and throughout the southwest. It was called by various names but were what we know as tortillas.

 

In modern times, salsa and mole have become synonymous with Mexican cooking. However, the act of chopping up tomatoes, onions and peppers and putting them on foods goes way back and the area known as Mexico was not the defining area.

 

Bean bread was made in some form or another up and down the east coast and throughout the south west. It is very filling and you can spice it up in all kinds of ways.

 

The Cherokee call it tu-ya ga-du and they put it in corn husks and then drop it in to boil.

 

Succatash is an east coast "thing" but is eaten throughout the U.S. It is mainly corn and lima beans. There are just about as many recipes as there are states. Generally you saute some onions (usually a bunch of scallions thinly sliced but shallots or red onions can be substituted but must be finely chopped) in butter/margarine. Add in about 10 oz baby lima beans and cook approx. 5 minutes. Add about 10 oz whole kernel corn (I add more corn and use white corn), salt and pepper to taste, stir another 3 minutes. Add in aout 1/2 soy milk or veggie broth and simmer about 3 minutes. In the usual recipes they use heavy cream. To get the same effect, add a little corn starch to thicken. Some folks substitute green beans for the lima, or edamame or fava beans.

 

Hush puppies are generally seen as a southern thing. You make a thick corn meal batter, drop by spoonfuls and deep fry them. Serve hot and drizzle with maple syrup.

 

To make vegan hush puppies, I would add about an extra 1/2 to 1 tsp. baking powder and some additional fat and depending on which egg substitute you use, maybe some applesauce. You want your hush puppies to be light and fluffy. Made the vegan method, non-veggies and vegans will still love them!

Re: dang

I am intrigued. Can you provide more details on bean bread, succotash, hush puppies?

No Idea what the last two are?

Alot of what you have listed seems to be Mexican influenced? i.e. Mole, Tortillas, salsa, corn recipies?

Isnt mole the one with cocoa in it? which is from down Mexico way?

 

I think what you call Lima beans are what we call butter beans, and can be used for anything from a smooth white sauce in lasagne to dips etc.

 

Please send me a hush puppie sounds nice!

Mole means sauce. A lot of the Mexican moles have Mexican chocolate in them which is not the same as having chocolate in them. Whole different taste!

 

Yes, our lima beans are what y'all call butter beans. I prefer "baby" limas. Mature limas, to me, are like eating a crayon <g> Around here I notice that when they are green we usually see them called limas, when they are yellow I'll see them called butter beans and when they are red (usually a little spotted) they are frequently advertised as calico beans.

 

I don't think the Hush Puppies would ship too well %-{ They are best served hot.

I usually find that the butter beans that we get ( large ones ) have tough skins so dont use them very often.

O.K. if they dont ship too well, I`ll have to start walkin`
