[Sca-cooks] Myth of Spoiled Meat

[Elise Fleming]

Greetings!  If anyone would like to have some facts to explain away the 
myth of spoiled meat and spices, take a look at Doc's "Drummond's Rotten 
Meat: When Good Sources Go Bad".  It's at 
http://www.medievalcookery.com/notes/drummond.pdf and, while some of you 
may have already found it (and his web site), perhaps there are a number 
of others who might appreciate having a logical and well-written article 
to back up our contention that spoiled meat being covered up with spices 
is just a myth.  I am absolutely impressed with the article and how the 
material is presented.
