You said 'eating oxtail hardly seems American" I've expressed that
'Americans' do in fact eat oxtail In fact, it has become hard to find
and very expensive because certain restaurants and areas of the
country make specialties with oxtail. I do not need to show you that
most (what ever that is) Americans eat it. That's a ridiculous
statement like asking do most people on the mainland eat grits? No.
