Subject: RE: Does it matter what music is called?
When I was kid I was impressed by John Caldwell's "Desperate Voyage". It's still in print and available here:
http://www.smallcraftadvisor.com/books.html
While trying to sail his small yacht solo across the Pacific, he was hit by a typhoon and reduced to a jury rig. The water destroyed much of his provisions, and what survived was in tins with the labels all washed off. He could never tell if he was going to get beans or pineapple.
I take it some of the posters here cook that way on purpose.
