Eatin' People

Penguin Group Australia has made a mistake. An Australian pasta cookbook was not properly proofread. My mother would not approve. Her red pens still bring back nightmares. I had the best grammar of any third grader in Winslow Township Elementary School #4 thanks to her.
But my mom did not get to proofread that book. But she would have done a much better job, even if, "...proofreading a cook-book is an extremely difficult task." according to Bob Sessions, head of publishing for Penguin.
A recipe in this cookbook calls for something quite peculiar - salt and freshly ground black people. Not pepper. Damn Aussies.
