Hi Dave,


 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.

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

 DD> IOW the bureaucrap who wrote the list had 'is own axe to grind. Or
 DD> didn't think that what I wanted to know was going to be important.
 DD> And, TBH, it may not be important to anyone but me and a few other
 DD> nutters.  Bv)=

You must have different expctations of what the USDA should have as
nutritonal information than what they put out. They try to cover what is
relavent to the majority of the population but can't cover the special
requests of the minority folks.

 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> I likes craisins, too. They go great in date-nut oatmeal and such.

I could, but won't, eat them by the hand fulls. Same with raisins.


 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 have different 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.

 RH> 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

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

 DD> The sweet-tart-zippy sauce is really nice.  Bv)= It works with goat
 DD> and mutton, too.

It would probably work on pork too. We're working on a bottle of cherry
chipotle bbq sauce Deborah gave us.
