Now see, I'm the otherway around. A plate is a plate is a plate to me, but
I can't pretend that obviously OOP food isn't what it is. Though I do have
a pretty low threshold of "period enough" and if the mashed potatoes seem to
be served just to fill an empty spot in a meal that otherwise involves some
effort at period cooking, I can live with that.
