Steve,
I want to know who is eating my share of sugar! Himself and I might ingest 65 pounds a year together. Making most meals from scratch sure beats buying packaged convenience food, which must be loaded with that stuff.
Silversage, that article was very interesting. I was amused by the comment that Beef Stroganoff fell out of favor in the 1970s. It was one of my Mom's regular rotation meals, and was what I cooked for Himself's very modern, career-woman aunt when she came to visit us early on in our marriage - probably somewhere around 1976. When I told Himself I was making Beef Stroganoff all he could think of was the Stouffer's on the Square in Shaker Heights, OH.
He was surprised at how good from-scratch could be - AND Aunt Ann was duly impressed.
And, thanks to you, I seem to have acquired another food blog to read when I have time...and remember. The "remember" part is getting harder.
