I don't have the full Big Debate, as I think you know, however Isha if
you want a summary of the opinions of the the two factions and the
original recipe it can be found in this file in the FOOD section of
my Florilegium:
cuskynoles-msg (44K) 8/21/00 A medieval fruit-filled pasta dish.
Your comment might be that 44K (about 15 pages) is awlfully big to be a
summary. However, if I had turned the whole thing into a file it would
have been serveral times larger and I doubt you would wish to wade
through the esoteric details and counter-counter-arguments. It was
sometimes difficult for some of us to follow even while it was going
on.
