Thanks. I got to thinking about it and did recall mention of the slant test tubes in biology 101, 50 years ago. I took a microbiology course about 4 years ago and we used only the petri dishes & standard agar.

I feel like making ice cream now.

It looks like pistachio pudding. You really need the selective media since Mycobacteria grow very slowly compared to other organisms. The added items keep others organisms at bay.
