Guest guest Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 Hi Angela, I was able to get in touch with our roving oregano expert - Butch - and he said the following: " ... It simples means .. compacted .. small, compact heads it has .. check it out in any book. Difference twixt it and any other Origanum is negligible .. matters what the percentage of carvacrol is ...

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 Thanks Chris and Butch. I happened to see that Latin name on the labels of several companies selling Oregano, without any further information about the contents, and just got a trifle confused. I did look it up, but to add to my confusion, the information I found said that it is 'Sweet Marjoram'. Oy, so much to learn. But plenty of time. :-) L & L, Angela Wed, 15 Sep 2004 12:01:06 -0500 " Christine Ziegler " <chrisziggy RE: origanum compactum Hi Angela, I was able to get in touch with our roving oregano expert - Butch - and he said the following: " ...
