I don't "get" people who don't like lima beans! I love them. But like
Elaine, they have to be fresh or frozen. Since I can't find fresh hulled
limas I prefer the big frozen Fordhook ones. They sort of "burst" in your
mouth when you bite into them Add some butter, a little thyme, salt &
pepper - they are great!

I do "get" Thai tea, at least Thai iced tea. I just don't care much for
tea.
