Hi Michael,

 RH> Citrus Magic ones (the ones I can use). Otherwise, I hit the that
 RH> aisle of the store as fast as possible; it's usually the same one as
 RH> fabric softeners, laundry detergents and other perfumed cleaners. Yuck!

 ML> Never saw the point of fabric softeners and perfumed cleaners.
 ML> Clean is clean. Perfumed is perfumed - and in my mind is
 ML> associated less with clean than with unclean.

I'd much rather have the unperfumed stuff, but some people associate
"good" smells with cleanliness. There's probably some sort of unpleasant
smell associated with some products that manufacturers associate with
uncleaniness and feel they have to add the perfumes to cover it up. I'm
glad tho that they also make an unscented version for those of us who
can't deal with the heavily artificial (mostly) floral scented products.
Some years ago when scent strips in magazines were big, good
Housekeeping offered a scent free version. I was able to change my
subscription to that one. Also, Steve knows that if advertisments
stuffed into the newspaper have perfume samples, the whole ad flyer goes
into the trash can, preferrably before I encounter it.

 ML> I brought 70 pills to Australia with me, and I've used 16 of
 ML> them. I've been a good boy, and Aussie cheese isn't all that
 ML> great anyway.
 RH> Saving them then for the picnic? Did you try the 10 year old cheddar?

 ML> You've seen by now! Handfuls of the things. Mozzarella,
 ML> 4 kinds of Cheddar (up to 8 years I think), cream cheese,
 ML> and so on. And only modest grepping, thanks to the miracle
 ML> of modern chemistry - I have doubts that the pills would
 ML> qualify as natural under any criteria.

Better living thru chemistry? I don't drink much milk any more but have
no problems dealing with dairy in the yogurt, cheese and ice cream I do
consume. Steve buys or makes almond milk; I do use that in small
amounts.

 ML> This recipe goes with the previous post, though you can
 ML> take wine vinegars, no?

I do use the red and white wine vinegars; the alcohol content is not in
them. Red wine vinegar is part of my sauerbraten marinade.

 ML> 1 Tb best quality sherry vinegar

Not yet tried this one tho I've seen it/read about it.
