Indeed I remember "Jaeger Schnitzel mit pfifferlinge" on the menu at
the Student Prince in Springfield, MA back in the 1960s. Pfifferlinge
is chantarelle. I imagine, but don't know, that they imported them
canned at that time. But, they do grow in the Northeast, so they might
have gotten them from a forager.
