Cindy Renfrow tried it.  Hope she is reading and can tell you about her 
experience with it.  I haven't been able to find _any_ pine nuts 
locally so I haven't tried it.  However, I found what I think is a 
picture of it in the Cleveland Museum of Art!  It is solid, not runny 
or gooey, and cut into large squares.  IIRC, Cindy had problems with it 
"setting up" and becoming firm, rather than tacky.
