    EEEEeeeewwww!   CAN or POWDERED  gravy??  Stefan,  where did we go
wrong??  Have you missed an episode or digest somewhere?   It was bad enough
that I had to politely say "no, thank you" and NOT make a face when my
Sweetie's sister(s) took perfectly good Turkey drippings,  poured out every
bit of fat they could discern, only to mix in waaaaay too much cornstarch to
make some gelatinous glop they called "gravy."
