Good morning from Eden,
Alys Katherine wrote re gunthar's request for info on Roman foods "If you're
not in any rush about the research, what might
be available in the records about Pompeii and Herculaneum?"

Along this line I'd suggest looking at 'Art, Culture, & Cuisine'  by Phyllis
Pray Bober.  (The University of Chicago Press, 1998.)  ISBN 0-226-06253-8.

I've only had time to skim it so far, but the section on roman cuisine looks
like it has a lot of content re foods from both Pompeii & Herculaneum.  My
first glance was inteterseting enough that i plan to use it as a tour guide
for my visit to Pompeii later this year :->

Also if you have heating facilities for these "food booths" the tarentine
meatballs from apicius are VERY yummy.
Eden
