Yeah... I don't get that as much information about the food from the
Club as I get from commercial labelled products.

The last time I was there I asked if I could take a look at the kitchen.
At first the DRM (dining room manager) was all enthusiastic. I'm sure
we can arrange that! Next thing I knew someone from the kitchen told me
no. Liability insurance and all that. I can understand that. I'm not
sure they've ever had anyone ask to see the kitchen before. <G>

What I was *really* wondering was whether or not they have microwave
ovens in the kitchen. LOL
