Hi Dave,

 DD> Do they let on how much of that 100 grams of weight is water and how
 DD> much is sugar/pulp/etc.? Statistics such as that can be misleading
 DD> while telling the literal truth. As Bennie Disraeli said ....

 RH> No, but do you squeeze the water out of strawberries before eating
 RH> them?

 RH> Didn't think so. Just indicates that strawberries aren't as much sugar
 RH> as you thought--they just taste like they're full of it.

 DD> Someone/thing is full of it.

 DD> The "statistic" *IS* misleading. What is the ratio of sugar to other
 DD> solids. Water, in this instance, is irrelevant as it has no food
 DD> value.

Categories given are food energy, protein, carbohydrate by differrence,
total lipid, sodium, total dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals and more
data. The latter includes water, ash, total sugars, saturated fatty
acid, monosaturated fatty acid, polysaturated acids and cholesterol.


 DD>  --->8 SNIP 8<---

 DD> Sauerkraut, sauerbraten, etc. are different categories of grub from
 DD> what we have been nattering on about. I fail to see how they relate
 DD> to cranberries, coffee, or tea.   Bv)=

 RH> Likes, dislikes, and foods that pucker. Actually, there is one form of
 RH> cranberry that I do like--craisins.

 DD> Wouldn't it be a boring old world if we all liked the same things and
 DD> had the same enthusiasms? BTW - much of my lemon consumption is as
 DD> lemon juice squoze into a glass of iced tap water to cut the
 DD> chlorine/chemical taste. No sugar at all.

 RH> I'm glad we all havedifferent tastes. That way somebody we know that
 RH> likes peanut butter can have my share and I'll eat his share of
 RH> brussels sprouts.

 DD>       Title: Rheinischer Sauerbraten
 DD>  Categories: Exotics, Wine, Fruits, Marinades
 DD>       Yield: 6 Servings

 DD>    1000 g  Horse rump roast

 RH> Beef is better. My mom tried using venison once and it was rather
 RH> strong; I imagine horse would be on the same sort.

 DD> I made a venison sauerbraten for the Y2K picnic here in Spring-A-Leak.
 DD> I was either moose or elk rump provided by Georgia from a friend who
 DD> harvested it in Canuckistan. Horse-meat (from what I remember) is
 DD> different from beef but not strongly flavoured nor "gamy". Of course
 DD> not all venison is "gamy" either.

Part of it could have been my mother's method of preparation.

 DD>       Title: Loin of Venison with Cranberry-Chipotle Sauce
 DD>  Categories: Venison, Chilies, Fruit, Sauces, Wine
 DD>       Yield: 8 Servings

Looks like you've done this before. (G)
