Hey, I've now got a topic for the Spring's restaurant and food topics on Austin360's BBS. To check out their page or log on go to http://www.austin360.com/ and click on bulletin boards on the image map. WER

try http://www.foodtv.com and austin.food newsgroup, which I just found out about a couple of minutes ago. WER

got links back to us up on http://www.escoffier.com/ Woo Woo!

Hey wer, didn't even know this topic existed...here are some of my fave sites: http://www.vegsource.com/recipe/ (vegetarian recipes) http://www.topsecretrecipes.com/ ("famous" recipes--such as all the soup nazi's recipes, Starbuck's frappucino, etc.) http://recipes.wenzel.net/ (various & sundry easy recipes)

i also know of a pretty good website for this topic. but i don't know how you make it red and linkable. plus my spider refuses to let me use it. i could remove some of the "already prepared food", take a picture, scan it, and insert the scan here. Spidey says she likes the idea now....woo-HOO (she said 'woo-HOO', it wasn't me) says she wants to write the caption (it'll explain how she prepares her food)

Why don't you just scan in a picture of Spidey? She sounds like she'll make an nice little cunk on a barbecued kebab . . .

Leplep, you just type in the URL starting with "http://".

To mark the final harvest of the 20th century, the Canned Food Alliance is celebrating the nation's fruit and vegetable crops and their swift journey from field to fork. As a salute to the harvesting process, the Canned Food Alliance is offering new recipes online at http://www.mealtime.org featuring a canned product from one of the 10 harvesting regions of North America. Farmers across North America are operating at peak production as they harvest their crops. For those fruits and vegetables that are traveling a few miles down the road to a cannery, the harvest season means being picked at the peak of ripeness and packed into a can within hours of being harvested in the field. Visit the Canned Food Alliance online at http://www.mealtime.org to learn more about the harvest season, including: - A map segmenting the various canning regions of North America and the crops they harvest; - An in-depth look at the step-by-step process of canning snap beans, including images; - A fact sheet explaining the history of the canning process; and - A quiz to test your harvest savvy. Enjoy the bounties of the season! The mealtime.org Team

What palates are they creating meals for? Western? Oriental? Kosher? Islamic? Vegetarian? All of the above?

From what I could see, anything. haven't really explored it enough yet. Seems you can put in diet requirements and they come up with suggestions. The bit i was looking at gave dish of the day - lots of combinations of dishes to choose from for a three course meal.

Three course meals?! Oh dear...*sigh*

Why 'oh dear', dear? You don't think I actually cook them do you???

I was afraid you might just be doing that exact thing! *whew*

Nevah!!! I only leave the computer to keep body and soul together *grin* Actually i have been known to .....

Haven't we all...?!

Well, perhaps the guy who bakes 7 chocolate cheesecakes to get one right... but, he is one of a kind...*smile*
