When baguettes were first introduced, the poorer Lao fed the bread to their pigs, so adding the baguette to the Lao diet as a staple was no easy task. Eventually, as the social status improved, they adopted bread, butter, and cheese."...yay!<br /><br />Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/3590710<br /><br />Still doesn't answer my egg question ;)Snaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15800305875871746333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1987983270909615123.post-27311036168563200782011-08-18T21:46:57.984+07:002011-08-18T21:46:57.984+07:00@MJ Klein farout, thanks...now I have something el...@<a href="#c5077108515846118986" rel="nofollow">MJ Klein</a> farout, thanks...now I have something else to investigate ;)....and then what?
