Good god, yes! It is even a featured food at vigils these days! (NOT 
MINE THOUGH!) We even decorate our maple bars with bacon! I hear they've 
been trying to make liquor with bacon! (*bleah!*)

Gunthar needs to come visit (Sport of Kings, dude!). He's break his diet 
and we'd be forced to keep him!

Nah, we're generally more creative than that. There was however, many 
years ago, a feast of infamy that became known as the 'Rabbit T*** 
Feast' because there was raisins in EVERYTHING. I was really hungry, and 
I just couldn't do it...

Haven't seen/heard of anything like that in decades though.

> Or headcooks do a good job in An Tir on making feasts that most people can eat?
Generally, yes. Most of them at the least avoid modern foods, and many 
make a pretty good attempt at period recipes. It's been quite some time 
since I stopped for food on the way home from a feast.

No more than usual, Stefan. :-)
