      _SLOPPY BUT FUN_
      (Boston Herald)
   The ice cream cone is 50 years old, but it will never be middle-aged.
   Chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, maple walnut, pistachio, lemon sherbet,
fudge whirl or cherry ripple, it will make anyone feels a little giddy and a lot
younger.  Jimmies or not, its magic stays the same.

AMERICAN CHOP SUEY

   This regional American dish is not in DARE?
   John Mariani gives no date.  From a post today on ANS-L:

     American Chop Suey ~ Found in school
    cafeterias, this delightful
     dish doesn't resemble anything American or
    Chinese. It's
     macaroni with meat and tomato sauce.
