Kennedy had surged several times in the long contest. It surprised even us when he trounced Carter in New York. Expecting Kennedy to be defeated, I had originally...
Despite its heritage, the factory's future is anything but certain. Tsang's two sons aren't interested in inheriting the family business, and her employees don't have a command of the science behind the sauces. "If I die," says Tsang, "no one will make this kind of soy sauce anymore." Just as well she has plenty of life left...
