Guest guest Posted November 7, 2001 Report Share Posted November 7, 2001 Even if I have to wait a year after surgery that pork steak is going to be soooo goood. pre- adulthood that was my absolute favorite and I don't mind waiting just knowing that someday I can have it again without the guilt. thanks everyone for your words of caution.
