Oh, yes but I am a peasant plus. The plus means other smoked
food.

Not a racist comment nor was it meant to be. The truth is that are ancestors
came from Africa, like around 80,000 yrs ago. Our ancestors developed in
different ways, heading north they lost the skin pigmentation in order to
profit from the a lower exposure so sun light. The Euro-Asian super
continent populated early on, modern man replaced the Neanderthal by
30,000 years ago in Europe. North and South America received humans maybe
12,000-13,000 years ago.

The Euro-Asian super-continent produced the grains, other plants and
domestic animals. I think that only the turkey was domesticated from
the Americas, although some plants were obtained. Central Africa represented
a block to transference of new species from North to South. Virtually none
of the large animals could be domesticated (Zebras, Rhinos, Hippos, etc),
hunted by not domesticated. Still nobody has succeeded in saddling up
a Rhino!

Not by preference but what is the choice these days?

Smoked salmon comes a wide spectrum of quality, the best is
sauvage, from points north.

We like herring, there are stores in Paris which sell the stuff,
from Iceland.

You don't see too many ostriches saddled up for hunting foxes.

Gawd Magda, I thought we were going to get a forecast of imminent
global warming from Mixi, for a moment. :-)

Nominal June warming would be much appreciated in these parts.
