Is it true that Ukranians eat deep-fried chunks of pork fat?<BR>

Yes. It is called "salo." Russians eat it too. It is disgusting. The book<BR>
they've been trying to ban in Russia on pornography charges is called "Gay<BR>
Salo."<BR>

DEEP-FRIED would be downright civlized. Some places in Russia treat their Honored guests to big hunks of RAW meat fat either poking out of sausage or, even worse by itself.<BR>

For my taste, without knowing whether "lavender" instead of "light blue" ruins any key images, I would call the book "Lavender Lard." Just as long as I don't have to eat the stuff, no matter what color.<BR>
