Re: Ancient Cuisine (Doormouse?)

  [About a decade ago I had read that some European animal rights
groups were in an uproar over a Dutch TV show showing how ancient
Romans ate. As I recall the story, the chef took a doormouse by the
tail, knocked it out by drowning its head in wine in a goblet then
toasted it over a candle fire to make an hors d'oeurvre. I went
searching for this in print and got these instead. I would appreciate
if anyone found the one I remember.]


Try "Dormouse" in stead of "doormouse"
