From a site on Internet, by a self-styled food and wine expert:
"Go into Milan, Rome or Florence and millions of Italians will tell you that both the Americans and the French are ignoramuses - that the true frappe is made by whipping or beating fruit-flavored sherbet into an almost liquid state and then drinking it through a straw"

So, I was more cosmopolitan than I realized.

You wouldn't believe the trouble Yahoo DSL is giving me.
First, using Edit...Copy in one window would not Edit...Paste in the second window.
So I tried Edit...Copy in the same window as this post,
and it still would not Paste. So I tried keyboard command
tsuwm told me about, and I finally got it pasted. I'm so pissed I didn't bother to make it clickable.
I hate Yahoo DSL.
