Though on the topic of hummus, tomatoes, and paprika preventing modern
Middle Eastern cuisine from being an adequate substitute for true "period"
dishes, is there a webpage or some other easily accessible resource which
offers a comprehensive listing of which foods *are* period?  I noticed
on Rialto and SCA-Cooks that questions keep coming up - oatmeal,
tomatoes, bananas, ad infinitum - and it would be really handy if there
was a webpage we could check *before* we asked.
