less of a problem in East Asia??).

 

They do sound nice.

Someone else on this list mentioned that the Chinese typically toss

everything into the same wok, in series, without washing it. To add

" flavour " . Any reason to hope New World don't do this?

fast-food veggieburger place (like V2 in Nottingham) that claims it can do

everything vegan (ok, everything on its rather limited menu) - including

" NoName Nuggets " ! The burger was good, but the worst thing was the flyer - " No

lentils and no meat " . I've half a mind to start a Lentil Appreciation Society

in protest!

May I just say:

 

Yay! Lentils!

You can get a lot of stuff like that at So in Birmingham too.
