================================
-> RH> 101 uses for LimeAway?  
-> 
-> Grin, I wouldnt use that except in a tub or shower, but same concept.
-> 
I end up with Bon Ami or something similar.

-> True.  I just grew up on this version.  To me, the other tastes subtly
'wrong' 
-> as if you added something you shouldnt?  Just a habit from youth.

Like garlic in the Philippino version, or in boeuf bourgunon[sp]. 

-> style'.  Thinner tips and the ribbed ones are 'Kyushu Japan style' which
have 
-> gained popularity up norther japan now (or so I am told by the locals,
that 
-> the ribbed ones come from here and got popular when others saw and used
them).

I've never seen ribbed ones.  Have you ever seen the cheater's chopsticks? 
They're one piece of plastic, with a loop at the top like a safety pin.   

-> (On the mochi cakes) might be wise.  They arent all that hard, but Don's
got 
-> weak teeth and cant eat these except if they are soaked to soft in soup.
They 
-> soak up the liquid pretty fast and will turn to 'crackery mush' in about
2 mins
-> 
-> or less.  If you like crackers in cream of mushroom soup, try them that
way!

Or in dashi, better yet, if I ever manage to get around to making more.
 
-> Grin, well it's our favorite one here.  Heck if i can tell the brand but
it's 
-> not 'hot' yet very flavorful.  The 'optional additions' many would add
here to 
-> that one would be about 1TS rendered chicken fat, or 1TS 'hot chile oil'
(ora 
-> bit less to taste).  We normally do not bother and just add boiling
water and 
-> then eat as is.

Sounds good to me.  I've eaten the Korean version enough times to have some
respect for that chili oil.
 
-> because they dont sell it, but because it sells out fast.  If you like 
-> Philipenne Adobo, this is one of the things the ladies here use it for.

Sounds like interesting stuff. 
 
-> with your lunch.  They look like little toy things a child would want
for a 
-> dollhouse but are meant for real use.  Oh, and not dishwasher safe (will
melt 
-> and the hole is too small to clean that way).

Into the dishpan they go, then.
 
-> -> of the octopus candy? (evil grin).
-> 
-> RH> (slurp!)  I love peppered dried squid. Octopus ought to be good too.
-> 
-> Dunno if it really is Octopus!  Charlotte grabbed the 2 little packs
that look 
-> like tiny things off the candy isle and said you would like them and she
likes 
-> them (so got her some too but she ate'em before i got a taste test). 
Umm, 'kid
-> 
-> tested and approved' will have to do?

I'll eat anything once.  I even almost bought one of those marshmallow
concoctions made to look like a hamburger.  
 
-> Oh the blackish-grey stringy dry things are mushrooms, not seaweed if i 
-> remember it right.  Sorry, got those a bit ago so would have to dig out
my old 

That's what I thought.  They'll probably end up in my rice pot.
