An important policy such as this needs to be in something that anyone can 
EASILY access, not in some obscure handbooks only for a few. As someone 
who has cooked a feast several times in this kingdom, I was unaware of 
this policy and have NEVER had it mentioned to me. If this policy 
includes cooking wine, then I may well have violated it all unknowing.  
None of the SCA groups I have participated in have ever bought alcohol 
for general consumption (we always thought it was against the rules), 
however buying wine for cooking has always been allowed.
