It's a chef's worst nightmare: to wake up one morning to find that food

has lost its flavor -- that every morsel to cross your lips tastes

bitter, metallic, and inedible.

This problem should become much less.........at least I surmise this after

seeing what a pound of Pine Nuts, often used in Sicilian and nearby territories

in cooking, cost at Whole Foods. The price yesterday was $44.00 a pound.

Regardless, it is information I didn’t know so, thanks.
