wrote: Tigsnona wrote in message .. . A news item the other day listed countries that appealed to tourists. Canada was way down the list and came out only marginally ahead of Iraq! I couldn't believe it. Is the climate a problem for tourists? Or has Canada priced itself out of the market? The survey was internationally-based and reputable apparently. TigsNona I have been to Canada many times and although I find nothing wrong with it in particular, I don't think it would be very high on my list as a future vacation destination. Canada is a terribly bland country. The people are just so nice, and everything is just so clean and proper. There isn't much that I find of interest or fun. Even Toronto, who most people seem to rave about as a destination seemed rather dull to me when I was there the last time. I guess it's just one of those things you have to experience first hand to understand. And the food is pretty crummy too, generally speaking. Those people put BUTTER on their sandwiches. I have put butter on my sandwiches forever. The English do, and the sandwich was invented in England. What else makes the ham, or tuna, or lettuce or tomato etc stick? Mayonnaise? Sandwiches I ate in the USA were saturated with mayonnaise, which rendered them sickly and sweet and simply ruined the tuna or other fillings. could never get used to that - although the Tim Horton's Doughnuts are fantastic.

Butter and mayonnaise are positively revolting. Rancid grease. I never understood how people can smear that pus onto their food and then voluntarily eat it. miguel -- Hit The Road!

And it's not real mayonnaise, but something called "Hellmans". More suitable wallpapering. |

Because they taste good (to most people) Butter is the root of most great sauces, I don't know what the French would do without it. I use Olive Oil most of the time for health reasons, but in many dishes, butter is a must. I hope so. I'm keeping my fingers crossed mk5000 "YOU a PETA supporter?!? LMAO!!!!!

Miracle Whip is the non-real stuff, aka "salad dressing." -- Trudi |

Never said there was no difference in taste. However, prepackaged food isn't all fake, either. -- Trudi |
