Thread Name: BS: The Recipe From Hell
Subject: RE: BS: The Recipe From Hell
This reminds me. Mom would get recipes from the Agricultural Extension agent every so often. Two memorable dishes were liver and kidney teriyaki (meat was diced, it was horrible). We renamed it liver and kidney harakiri and she never made it again. The other was a dessert, concord grape flavored tapioca pudding. The recipe created enough to feed a small army. It probably made the disposal bilious to run it down the drain. As a funny aside, a junior high school English teacher offered up a mnemonic device for remembering the difference between spelling "dessert" and "desert."

"Dessert has two esses, and you can remember there are more esses because you want more dessert." But not with this pudding!
