I have only had it a few times and it has always been delicious. You
have to like curry. Like any other type of soup there are many
different recipes. Some call for cream to be added at the end, some call
for coconut milk. Some have chicken, some don't.

I have wanted to make some for a long time. As soon as I get rid of the
last of my split pea soup I should try making some Mulligatawny.

I guess that's when selling whole wheat as the healthy alternative
started to become popular with advertisers. I still call it brown
bread when talking to hubby or family.

You've missed out a very tasty soup if you've never stumbled across
it. It's basically Indian style chicken soup - they aren't all
vegetarians. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mulligatawny My reaction
to it the first time I tried it was: Where have you been all my life?

We probably all have different bread histories, but when I was a kid
we didn't have freezers to keep bread in and it was a long way to the
bakery. Most families only had one car and housewives didn't have easy
access to stores. Milk and bread were delivered several times per week.

My mother used to make most of our bread. While I always preferred brown
if eating commercially made bread, it wasn't too much of a sacrifice to
home made white.

The only white bread I ever buy is from a bakery, a real bakery, not one
of those in store bakeries.

I corrected that misstatement several replies ago. I'd still bet they
either got it from Florida or bought it frozen. Even your link contains
the word "fall". Last time I checked, February isn't in the Fall.

Thanks for encouraging the asshole, Earl, whose only claim to fame is
being a trailor trash redneck like his buddy from Zephyrhills.

It isn't Spring (which the second link is about) either.

Correct, it's still Winter, despite the warm temps we enjoy almost year
round. Fish, like birds, pretty much know when to move/migrate from one
region to the next.

All fishing is seasonal... I didn't bother to check when flounder
season occurs in the Carolinas but I'm sure they run for several
months. Odds are good that all seafood served at The Club was frozen.

Asshole? Trailer (correctly spelled) trash? Redneck? You really have
no idea but I could pay cash for that free house you live in. I'll leave
it at that.

No, logically it would be whatever the common usage is. White or Wheat. It's said in every american restaurant every day, dozens of times. If you tried to correct a waitress on that in front of me, I would beat the mother****ing shit out of you.

Once again, you've proven what a imbecile you are. Do you trot out this tiresome nonsense when a waitress asks "white or wheat"? Oh that's right - you don't eat out. Just you and the cats and that garbage you call food.
