Understood.  I tend to take my starches in fairly small doses in such
places myself, even if I don't really need to... rather have room for
the rest of the goodies...  :)

Gotcha... understood...  :)

 NB>> Funny how little things can make or break... :)
 ML> That's not a little thing!

For you, ok...  ;)   I had something the other day that I think you
wouldn't have liked... I'm pretty sure the seed I saw on the surface was
caraway... sure tasted like it to me, too... ;)  At an asian restaurant,
Mongolian lamb on a stick was on offer... my girlfriend, intrigued,
ordered it...  She only tasted garlic in the spicing, it also had a very
definite taste of caraway to me...  Fortunately, it doesn't turn me off
like it does you.   :)
