Wow, you reallly sacrficed your body for us readers with this Taft Diet! Just the idea of eating all that meat in one day is making me feel rather nauseated. And sorry for the poor possum who gave his life for research. But to get my mind back on something more appetizing, I AM looking forward to your recipe for the "four color cream fruit pie."

I'd guess muskrat, but it isn't the season right now.

So a recipe came across in a email called Captain Country Chicken. Has history with the spice trade thru the South wayyyy back in the day. 1850's. A cook that cooked for Roosevelt. It's all very sketchy but I made it. It was good but was wondering WHY IT WAS MADE INTO A MRE FOR THE MILITARY in early 2000 because a fave of a very years later now deceased President.
