Jeanne: Try the tapioca chiffon. My mom used to make it with lots of beaten egg whites and vanilla. That's how I make it. It's delicious. Love, Kathy

Joicy,this is interesting, I am trying to remember, didn't the apricot
pit rememdy, Laetrrile (discredited by NCJ) contain cyanide?
I hate tapioca pudding. We used to get this when I was in nurse's
training. Maybe I should give it another look! Still looks like fish
eggs though!
God Bless, Jeanne
