Straight From The History Channel..Holiday Dish questions

[exploder321]

Ok...
Watching the History Channel can you answer the questions below...

What century did stuffing first appear?

Which was made first meat stuffing or bread stuffing?

Has Ocean Spray Ever changed the recipe for Cranberry Sauce?

What Year was Stove Top Stuffing Invented-Introduced?

When was Campblles Soup's Green Bean Cassarole invented?

How many estimated portions of Green Bean Cassaroule are served each year?

StoveTop Stuffing

is from around 1976. It's all right, but not a favourite of mine. Sort of like "Minute Rice." I don't buy it, but if a host/ess puts it in front of me, I'll eat it.

Green Bean Casserole is 50 or 51 years old now, (depending on your source.) I happen to love it, but friends who are hosting Monday don't love it, so I will make some for me in February. I add sliced water chestnuts, and another can of onions, and use the reduced sodium mushroom soup. I also add some sliced mushrooms, too.

Happy holidays--

Friend gave me a tip to use Golden Mushroom soup in green bean casserole. Doesn't make for a lite version, but sure is good!

Which was made first meat stuffing or bread stuffing?

Speaking of which, while eating (bread-based) stuffing yesterday a friend who just returned from Peru informed me that guinea pigs are the (equivalent of) *chicken* of/in that country. YUM!

Oh boy..... confirmed via web-search!

JOKE:
What is the difference bewteen a northern zoo and a southern zoo (in the U.S of America)? Southern zoos generally have recipes by the displays.

I can assure you, sir, that there are near zero here that would eat cat, given the avaialbility of beef.

 

[exploder3211]

In all seriousness, who in the hell would eat that?? It made my stomach churn

 

[toggleswitch]

OK people, PLEASE let's not get excited about this one.

Hello, Samantha?

 

[toggleswitch]

Anyhoo, at one of the stops this Christmas the man of the house was Puerto Rican and I enjopyed some great Carribean cooking.

Tried to taste pigs feet. Could not get past the gelatin looking stuff. I found the flavor, the consistenty and the texture of the garbanzo beans (chick peas) that were cooked with it less than fabulous, IMHO.

The other stuff was awesome.

 

[exploder3211]

The poor dog in the GE microwave..I have to assume that it's long been digested...

Alright, lets move on from the disgusting...

There are pickled pigs feet in jars here...YUCKKK to the nth degree

 

[exploder3211]

I am going to Kill You Daddy...Get rid of that! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Thats what my cats thinking at this moment as she's watching me with the cat thread
