When I was visiting England with my chorus I was I believe that the Romans ate mice, but even during the darkest hours of wartime rationing we never had to eat them! Ann - I think perhaps you mean a pudding we call 'mousse', which is a French word for a sort of pudding made with cream. I serve up a lot of puddings here (in England) because my family demands them, but mostly they ask for Jam Roly-Poly or Spotted Dick - both of which are puddings made with suet. =============================== Tom Holloway The Chatback Trust Tel: 01926-888333 Fax: -435534 chatback@rmplc.co.uk URL: www.rmplc.co.uk/eduweb/sites/chatback/
