There seems to be quite a few posters here that get their knickers in a knot when an American poster refers to a food, spice, currency, quantity, or location that doesn't identify his country of origin. I, myself have been the victim on occasion. I have had to (gasp!) type a store name into Google to find out its location! On that note, I invite any and all to post the name of the country from which tou are posting. I'll be first. Scott.
