[Sca-cooks] listing of ingredients...

I am stewarding my first feast this April.  I've been playing for 8 years and am in my third Kingdom to live it.  My question is this:  My Event Steward first wanted us to post my recipies.  I talked her out of that...then she said that she wanted me to post ALL of my ingredients on the website.  I told her that I wasn't sure that I wanted to do that either.  I felt that my menu and a link to ask me any question or voice any dietary or allergy concerns.  She still wants me to post the ingredient list at the event.  She said that she had seen this done in the North all the time.  I don't know...I'm a southern girl and have only played in Ansteorra, Glenn Ahbann, and Meridies.
   
  Is this a common practice in the North?
  Should I list even the unpronouncable ingredients?
   
  I think that she is mainly wanting a list of my spices.  I season to taste and at the last minute may want to add a little cinnamon to a dish.  
   
  Should I list every possible spice whether or not I actually use it?
   
  I'm confused!  Though I am a picky eater, I taste what ever is put in front of me and if I think there might be a strawberry on the plate, I avoid it like the plague.  These are things that I concern myself with, I have never gone to the feast steward and told them..hey don't put...I don't know...um...cheese in anything cause I might die.
   
  Is this a common occurance as well?  
   
  All we want to do is put together a period feast filled with foods that everyone will at least try.  I didn't realize that there would be acrobatic hoop jumping....lol.
   
  Thank you for letting me rant...and I would appreciate your ideas as to how best display all of my ingredients.
