Last year while campaigning in Iowa, Barak was complaining to a crowd about how the price of food has gone up . His example was the price of arrugula at Whole Foods.
Well the odds of anyone even knowing what arrugula is in that audience was kinda low. And in all of Iowa, there isn't one Whole Food store.
Arrugula is a lettuce that isn’t easily found in most grocery stores. <<<
I am laughing and thinking that I did it again, changed the name of something, the weed that i planted is in the mustard family, a longish serrated leaf.
But then I disgusted my neighbors and they thought that I was nuts to pay good money to buy weed seeds for things like purslane and amaranth LOL bought several of them.
I did not have those weeds growing here, never mind that they may grow some other place....I like them.
I won’t comment on obama, and of course, I will not be voting for him.
Nothing surprises me, well some things, I had to laugh at how many of the “traditional southern food dishes” come from Africa, not a surprise, but it would be to many.
Early in the thread there are links to interesting African sites with recipes.
