Among the dislikes was "humanely raised veal." Ms Child didn't find the tenderness or milk-fed taste in humanely raised veal. To a person schooled in taste and texture, hrv doesn't make the grade, she said.<BR/><BR/>Here is a quote from one of her books: "Today, both in this country and abroad, top-quality professionally raised veal is nurtured on milk and milk by-products under carefully-controlled conditions..." Julia Child from In Julia's Kitchen with Master Chef's (Alfred A. Knopf, New York, 1995)<BR/><BR/>Of course, we know what those "contolled conditions" really are.... or if you don't, go to http://www.freefarmanimals.org/Bryanna Clark Groganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13235333928055873948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16132334.post-1146052964751090632006-04-26T05:02:00.000-07:002006-04-26T05:02:00.000-07:00Broccoli?
