What Was That Cheddar?
Those readers who actually read the entire account of our staggering Thanksgiving feast might remember

Wrapped Cheddar from California. Since we were told it's the only cheddar produced this way in the
U.S., I'm suspecting that's the cheese we enjoyed on Thanksgiving.
The whole issue, in fact is worth picking up. They highlight artisanal producers, sustainable fishing,
and a host of other foodstuffs that are soundly produced and much better than their industrial counterparts.

the other dishes, and I would be remiss if I didn't mention everyone who contributed; I did not do the
entire dinner myself.
