Since the web site in question is  specifically geared toward being
encyclopedic in depth, the recipe for the particular treat should be posted.
There are several tens of millions of people that view the eating of beef with
disgust.

  <<Or mayhaps there is one of your recipes M'lord.  >>

My apologies in advance but this particular statement is total garbage.  The
recipes I have posted to this list are immanently edible. Hopefully, I will
not be taking any particular interest in the family cookbook of the Borgias at
the time you attend any of my feasts. both my recipes and advice are sought
after by many people both in and out of the SCA and I find this statement
extremely offensive even if it was meant in jest. :-(

<<There are a lot of Chihuahua owners...  :-)>>

Your point being?  Without Chihuahua owners there would be no Chihuahuas which
would put a real roadblock in the path of those seeking to recreate Aztec
cuisine.  Just because social attitudes in the USA are particularly boorish,
it is not a platform from which to declare any particular edible substance
from consideration.  The propensity for Americans to view anything out side
their own cultural experience as weird or insane is at best ludicrous and
laughable.
 
 <<Hiding in the stream,

I wouldn't hide in that particular stream if I were you as I intend on
dynamiting it to harvest the fish population.
