BOIL-IN-BAG
(by Barry Popik)

   Oh all right, I'll do every item on rec.food.historic.  Maybe not, but
this person is way off.
   I'll do the stuff for Grant Barrett tomorrow.

Well, in Germany it appeared about 1970, under the name "Reis-Fit".But the
company who presented it doesn't claim to have invented it.So who was the first?

Thanks!-Carsten
