 DM>> ;() Russian make a nice threat mostly with water and gelatin.
 AH>> Alan said "treat"... not "threat".  These are different words, which
 AH>> have different meanings & are also pronounced differently.
 DM>> Treat - Russian "sud" or what?
:) 
 AH>           My knowledge of Russian is severely limited, and Uncle Google
 AH> was of no help there... so I must resort to explaining the idea in
 AH> English.  A treat, where Alan & I come from, may be a food item a person
 AH> rarely enjoys because it costs more money than they are willing to pay
 AH> except on special occasions &/or because it's incompatible with their
 AH> usual fat/calorie/carbohydrate allowance.
And threatment/treatment?

 AH>           WRT marshmallows, the original recipe... which included egg
 AH> whites & marshmallow root... was altered to make them cheaper & easier to
 AH> produce.  All the examples I've seen consist mainly of sugar, corn
 AH> starch,
What is corn starch?

 AH> and water.  There are other sweets I'd much rather have if I want
 AH> to go that route... [chuckle].
;)
