While we're on the subject, is my favorite french dish "Bourgignon" (sp?) just made of the left overs of meat? I heard this but I don't know if the source was credible.Comment

It's actually illegal in the EU to brand anything as "Champagne" if it doesn't come from the Champagne region.Originally posted by DRoseDARs

Never cooked it, so I can't say. I don't think it has to be leftovers to taste good, but this looks tipycally like the kind of dish that used to be made of leftovers in the days of yore.Originally posted by Bereta_Eder

Though, there are some danes around the world that makes exellent wines - at least one in spain and a couple in france.
Well, since you are so easy to lure into eating danish feta, then it probably wouldn't be a problem to do the same with the wine.Originally posted by Bereta_Eder

With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

*sniff* God bless the USA, where any upstart hick can make a "champagne" that sells for less than bottled water, and makes you blind in large doses. O America, teh beautiful!Originally posted by Spiffor

not here though. Not only can sparkling wines made in the style of champagne be called Champagne, but so can sparklers made using bulk methods, so that the ones made using the traditional methods are labeled "methode champenoise" to distinguish themselves. I presume the higher end California stuff drops the name Champagne, to avoid sounding like a low class copy (and cause some of the higher end sparkler makers are owned by French firms)Originally posted by Spiffor

and of course anything thats white and offdry can be called "chablis", but even mid range wines dropped that habit - California wines of any quality have for long been named after the grape variety - a trend that has apparently spread to France in recent years."A person cannot approach the divine by reaching beyond the human.

cough coughI will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

also of course the US has (im not sure if its at state initiative - I think so) geographic appelation rules. A wine made with grapes from Napa County can be called Napa. One made from certain regions within Napa County - Napa Valley, Carneros, etc can take the name of the subregion.
We dont have a system of "classes" like Cru Bourgeois, Grand Cru, Cru Superior etc.
We should have one, appropriate to our society.
in order
Cru Soccer Mom.
Cru Yuppie.
Cru Venture Capitalist
Cru Republican Donor

This explains the "Norfeta" I tried last week. The local producer(s?) must be having to label to get around this.
mmmm. Norfolk Feta. Not salty enough for my tastes.Exult in your existence, because that very process has blundered unwittingly on its own negation. Only a small, local negation, to be sure: only one species, and only a minority of that species; but there lies hope. [...] Stand tall, Bipedal Ape. The shark may outswim you, the cheetah outrun you, the swift outfly you, the capuchin outclimb you, the elephant outpower you, the redwood outlast you. But you have the biggest gifts of all: the gift of understanding the ruthlessly cruel process that gave us all existence [and the] gift of revulsion against its implications.
