As I understand, originally, we made beer, and the "Yeast Extract" was
the crap left over. We could either a) feed it to the pigs or b) spread
it on our bread. I have always assumed that a) didn't work out. The
pigs turned their noses up at it and we went with plan b.

Although the Yanks did buy it off us. What's that line in Miss Saigon?
- "I can sell s**t to the Yanks and get thanks!"

No. I was in Atlanta, Georgia. Not *too* far from Downtown. I'll email
my host and find out.

Cheers,

Sean
