LD Sledge says: I cooked this recipe tonight and found my piece de resistance, my magnum opus, mon tour de force, mon chef-d’oevre. OMG it was magnificent. It is a recipe that my sister-in-law had from A friend who was raised in India and whose father was in the embassy. The friend was given this recipe by an Indian who made her promise she would never give it to but 2 people. The recipe finally Found its way To my ex sister-in-law who sent it to me who was under a no covenant not to disclose. Thank goodness. I had this for dinner back in 1964 and never forgot it.

Popular lollies, sauces and dressings have been found to contain nanotechnology that the national food regulator has long denied is being widely used in Australia’s food supply.
For many years, Food Standards Australia and New Zealand has claimed there is “little evidence” of nanotechnology in food because no company had applied for approval. It has therefore not tested for nor regulated the use of nanoparticles.
Frustrated at the inertia, environment group Friends of the Earth commissioned tests that found potentially harmful nanoparticles of titanium dioxide and silica in 14 popular products, including Mars’ M&Ms, Woolworths white sauce and Praise salad dressing.
“FSANZ kept saying there’s no evidence of it, we’re not going to do any testing. But all 14 samples came back positive, indicating widespread use of nanoparticles in foods in Australia,” said the group’s emerging tech campaigner, Jeremy Tager.
“?Everybody would want to think food is tested and assured to be safe before it hits supermarket shelves. FSANZ is conducting a living experiment with people. It has inexcusably failed in its role as a regulator.”

Dieneke was diagnosed with blood cancer myeloma at 67 years old back in 2007. This form of cancer is typically fatal, killing nearly 3,000 people a year in the UK. In attempt to combat it, she took on three rounds of chemotherapy along with 4 stem cell transplants. She experienced nothing but pain and relapse throughout this process.
After the repeated failure of the aggressive treatment she was receiving, she decided to give something new a try, something a bit unconventional, something that became her last resort – she started taking 8 grams of curcumin a day (the active ingredient in turmeric).
According to Sanna Heikkinen from the University of Helsinki and the Finnish Cancer Registry, the practice of dyeing hair can increase the risk of breast cancer. Heikkinen studied 8,000 women with breast cancer and compared them to a control group of 20,000 women. She noted a 23% increase in breast cancer risk in those who dyed their hair regularly.
