food

Rumor has it that Iggy Drougge may have mentioned these words: Hmmm... not sure if I should be offended by this... Despite the last name of "Merchberger" a healthy portion of my heritage is descended from exactly those who were here before the europeans arrived... American Indians, aboriginals, "red man", however you want to put it - there's a great deal in America that's indigenous, and you'd be amazed with the variety & quality of food that's available at a decent-sized American Indian pow-wow. Sounds just a deranged as what we Americans call "foreign" food, which at best is 1/2 Americanized -- at worst, it's not palatable. At the risk of sounding like Homer Simpson... Oooohh... Nutella... I've had it once, and that is some *fantastic* stuff... *Still* trying to get my uncle to send me some from Deutschland. I ask only rarely (because I forget to "pester" him) and he forgets to bring some back when he comes (he usually comes back to the states once or twice a year...). :-( Find a way to get me a jar or two, and I'll forgive that "indigenous" remark...
