I have eaten Indian food a few ...Very interesting. I have eaten Indian food a few times but never attempted to cook it myself. Have cooked and eaten duck several times (just roasted it just like a chicken). I have read that duck and goose fat are much prized among traditional cooks. At any rate, I believe that animal fat has been rather UNFAIRLY demonized! I believe we definitely *need* to eat animal fat. For one thing, I have cured kittens' dry eye problems by feeding them oily fish (tuna/salmon mashup, mackerel, and sardines); I just pick out the vertebral bones and mash up the rest of it. Eating more fat also helped my own dry-eyes problems (especially butter and coconut oil). EFAs are wonderful things. So far my favorite Asian cuisine has been Thai food. . Glad to hear that you and Alan (and your puppy) are all doing well! We moved to Kingman, AZ this past May. I have been looking for a job, since I was abruptly terminated from the job I brought with me here.
