You know, I was fully an adult when I realized that soy sauce was made with soybeans?

(Of course, soy sauce in packets often isn't, but that's beside the point.)

So I can be forgiven for only realizing just now the hidden gem in rising grain (including corn) prices....

Less high fructose corn syrup all over the place!

Seriously, once you get out of the habit of eating lots of foods with that, it tastes really obvious and disgusting. And it sneaks in a lot of places, too.

Walloon

Connie:

While using the great oracle (google) to search for Walloon resources I ran across a post from you. I am curious, did you ever locate any Walloon learning resources in French or English? I am not interested in the common or standard Walloon, but Walloon from a particular region of Wallonia, e.g. Western or Central.

If I do, I'll run to post about it, but there doesn't seem to be much of a market in educating me.
