It does seem that way. Whether that's due to changes in the taste buds with age, or the soup itself, I don't know. When I make it now, I put in a slug of pureed tomatoes (canned whole tomatoes in juice, run through the blender, and put through a sieve). That cuts the sweetness and enhances the tomato flavor.

Of course if there had been a baked ham, thewas always ham sandwiches and near the end, ham salad sandwiches. Another sandwich I loved was liverwurst and onion with mayo and mustard. Only our housekeeper ate balogna. None of the rest of us liked it. I don't remember the brands of store bought bread when I was a kid, except Wonder Bread, which my mom wouldn't buy. The bread she did buy was much better.

Mark, I think you're telling us your elder Sis was an evil troll who was setting up your early death so as not to split the inheritance. <G> Do you have heart problems? If not, you are a fortunate survivor of some good food. This high fat stuff is typical of where the weather gets *really* cold. If your family ate these foods, they are like my forbears. The ones who couldn't survive died off. You then have good ancestors. Your diet should consist of Herrings, Salami sam- miches, slathered in butter, lots of sour cream, and so on. I think you know the drill. Is your heritage Scandi? If so, I hope you enjoy those old dishes, except maybe for Ludefisk. Alex who has to draw the line somewhere..... |

Kilpatrick's, as far as I remember, was one of the first breads to go National (US) taking advantage of mass production methods, and providing sliced bread to the market. At least that's what my fuzzy memory recalls. It didn't transition very easily to a consumer that had choices and was gobbled up by a competitor and then asset stripped. As far as OM's olive loaf; my memories from childhood also ranked it higher than I think of it nowadays. I prefer Boar's Head olive loaf but don't appreciate paying $13.95 / lb. so it's only purchased when it goes on sale. As far as the Miracle Whip and Mustard mix, I got that from my Sainted MotherT who was an East Coast Gal originally. The Sylvania shipped her out to the Left Coast and she never looked East again.

Not sure about the toast, but bread 'n' butter 'n' bacon is pretty fine. And of course, the butter should ooze out if it's on toast -- the way it dribbles off the English muffin and runs down your arm. Felice |

This is a great thread. We seem to have eaten some stuff, and lived
to tell about it, and sophisticated up enough to argue about which end of an onion to cut first. Cool. The beet eggs are picklin', stocked up on sardines, tomatoes are just finally coming in, don't know what is going with the radishes. Between that and the dead animal parts the trucks keep bringing to that place up the road, there will be sandwiches. B |
