In the odd delusion that I liked the stuff (remember, I used
the last in SOS, it was so salty), Annie got another pound of
it for my lunch when I got off the plane; so I now have the
label in front of me. It says

 047134 009057
 WEGMANS LONDON BROIL

 keep refrigerated - ingredients: contains up to 10% of a
 solution of: water, salt, sodium phosphate, dextrose,
 autolyzed yeast, sugar, beef extract, natural flavor (beef
 extractives), coated with: salt, dextrose, caramel color,
 dried garlic, dried onion, spices, autolyzed yeast extract,
 natural flavor, extract of lemon. Contains sulfites.
 Allergens: may contain egg, fish, milk.

 Pack date 07/01/12.

Peculiarly, the package contains two different kinds of meat
sliced from different chubs - one, more or less as I had described,
with little grain and little flavor (except salt), the other, with
that stringy quality that we know and love from bottom round,
somewhat tasty, not too salty, rather tough and got in between
my teeth more than usual.

 NB> I trust it didn't carry the Weggies "Food You Feel Good
 NB> About" label, tho.  

I wonder if there's a label that says Food You Feel
Suspicious About?
 
 NB>> ... DOCTOR: "First the good news. Your name will go down in
 NB>> history...." 
 ML> I heard a crueler version of the punchline, which goes,
 ML> "First, the good news. My name will go down in history."
 NB> That IS cruel...  and not nearly as humorous...

But more accurate. I figure Caesarean section was the last
condition to be named for a victim rather than the diagnostician.
And even then, it was the victim's son.
