I also wish that I had done more history in school, so I certainly support it being a focus. I did Australian history many times over but know embarrassingly little about European, American and even English history. I still need to keep working to educate myself in that area (despite being at university for 8 years and studying arts units at an undergraduate level!).<br /><br />It does sound like we are in a fortunate position with sugar too - that is interesting around our lower use of corn syrup. Definitely a good thing in my view.<br /><br />(I am ignoring the mac cheese because my tastes don't run that way!)Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06350144954173714085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-50545677311178084272012-08-08T06:03:21.578+10:002012-08-08T06:03:21.578+10:00Your cheesy cauliflower macaroni looks to die for ...Your cheesy cauliflower macaroni looks to die for Johanna.

And you're right, the USA has a lot of trouble with HFCornSyrup. The biggest problem with HFCS is that it is made from genetically modified, "round-up-ready" corn. The corn is just laced with chemicals, pesticides, fungicides, weed killer -- you name it...and it is in everything - even ketchup! So yes, it is a huge issue, but not a lot of people know, (or care!) You're lucky Australia doesn't have that problem!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-36653780001028402982012-08-08T01:51:09.972+10:002012-08-08T01:51:09.972+10:00Looks great.

Plus, I went to school with him - he was 2 yrs above me. <br /><br />Did you ever see a book called World Food Cafe? really good. I was just looking at a cauliflower cheese using coconut milk as well as cheddar last night. Sounds weird eh?
