...holler come and git it, these steers come running," Yoder says. "They like it more than the tall, lush grass in springtime. Even when the bread is moldy, they still like it just fine." Ted Thoreson, another Missouri cattleman, offers his steers spent Lipton tea leaves and contaminated flour. Says Thoreson: "The truth is that cows can actually convert most any kind of waste to food...
...supermarkets in the Midwest and Southern California, as many as 250 items can be bought in bulk, including flour sugar, mixes for cakes and breads, pie fillings, dried beans, rice, pasta and spices.

The fatalities included 40 adults and about 70 children-20 having died from the bombings and as many as 50 from the cold...

Many restaurants, like Manhattan's Four Seasons and Le Français, in Wheeling, Ill., use them as garnishes for meat and game or in a cream sauce. Owner-Author George Lang of Manhattan's Cafe des Artistes insists on serving them as a separate course sauteed in olive oil or butter: "They are too precious to use as a vegetable...
