by Kathy Wolfe This week, Tidbits studies up on some unusual names for some pretty common foods. You might find this info helpful the next time you’re dining out! • Folks down South are familiar with hush puppies, which are spoonsful of cornbread batter cooked in hot fat. Legend has it that they were used by hunters and fishermen who would toss the little morsels to their dogs to keep them quiet. Others say that Confederate soldiers in the Civil War fed them to their dogs on the battlefield to “hush the puppies.” • Other Southern dishes include burgoo (a thick stew of several types of meat and veggies), chitterlings (the deep-fried small intestine of pigs), and Hoppin’ John (a stew of black-eyed peas, salt pork, and seasonings). Hoppin’ John’s relative is Limpin’ Susan, which substitutes okra for the peas. If you order dirty rice down South, your rice will be mixed with ground chicken livers and bacon drippings, onions, and green peppers. • If you order fruits de mer while dining out, don’t expect to get a platter of fruit. It’s actually a dish of raw and cooked shellfish, including oysters, shrimp, lobster, crab, mussels, clams, and scallops. It’s served cold on a bed of rice.

Tidbits® of Sheridan and Johnson Counties Tidbits Presents the
HEALTH PAGE TO YOUR GOOD HEALTH By Keith Roach, M.D.
Shuffling of Feet Raises Red Flag --DEAR DR. ROACH: I am 85 and in good health, except for dizzy spells. It was said that I have vertigo, but I do not believe this to be the case. Meclizine is of no help. The symptoms are worst when I close my eyes: When I do, I feel like may fall. Other symptoms are shuffling of feet, dizziness and dizziness on standing too quickly. Is it possible I have Meniere’s disease? -- A.T.H. ANSWER: “Dizziness” is a very nonspecific term. It can mean vertigo, which is a sensation of movement when there isn’t any; lightheadedness, such as we can all get sometimes when standing too quickly; or a disorientation that can happen when blood sugar is low. Meniere’s disease is a cause of true vertigo, often with ringing in the ears and hearing loss. Shuffling of the feet is a red flag for Parkinson’s disease. Dizziness is a common if not universal symptom in people with Parkinson’s. However, only a thorough history and physical exam can make the diagnosis. If your regular doctor hasn’t been able to help, you might see a neurologist, who is an expert in making diagnoses about neurologic symptoms such as dizziness. There are many possible causes. The booklet on vertigo explains this disruptive condition in detail and outlines its treatment. Readers can order a copy by writing: Dr. Roach -- No. 801W, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803. Enclose a check or money order (no cash) for $4.75 U.S./$6 Canada with the recipient’s printed name and address. Please allow four weeks for delivery. *** DEAR DR. ROACH: My daughter was diagnosed with Lyme disease. I’m from Michigan, in a county with open spaces and lots of animals. Probably a tick caused it. Are there doctors who treat this disease in our area? Lots of people in this area have it. -- P.A. ANSWER: Lyme disease is caused by a bacteria, Borrelia burgdoferi, which in turn is spread by the blacklegged deer tick, Ixodes scapularis. I checked with the health department in Michigan and found that there has never been a reported case from your county. That doesn’t mean it’s impossible -- you are not far from some counties in western Michigan where Lyme disease is known to be present. It’s possible your daughter traveled, or it’s possible she is the first case in your county. Most cases of Lyme disease start with a characteristic rash, sometimes with fever or other symptoms. It can be treated effectively, in the vast majority of cases in early stage, with oral antibiotics, such as doxycycline. An infectious-disease expert can help confirm the diagnosis and make sure she is properly treated. *** DEAR DR. ROACH: You wrote about the health benefits of nuts. Does roasting them matter? A friend says they need to be raw. -- A. ANSWER: The data showing improved heart disease rates in people who eat nuts looked both at raw nuts and roasted. Many roasted nuts include more salt than you want, and some roast in unhealthy oils. Look for dry-roasted and low or no salt. *** Dr. Roach regrets that he is unable to answer individual letters, but will incorporate them in the column whenever possible. Readers may email questions to ToYourGoodHealth@ med.cornell.edu. To view and order health pamphlets, visit www.rbmamall.com, or write to Good Health, 628 Virginia Drive, Orlando, FL 32803.

UNUSUAL FOOD NAMES (continued): • Often mispronounced as “kwin-o-ah,” the correct way of saying quinoa is “keen-wah.” It’s the seed from a broad-leafed plant related to beets and spinach. Quinoa has more protein than any other grain, and is rich in iron, magnesium, phosphorus, and zinc, as well as a good source of fiber. Most folks prepare it like they would rice. • Ordinary pasta has dozens of different names to describe the variety of shapes and sizes of noodles. Vermicelli actually translates “little worms” from the Italian language, while mostaccioli means “mustaches.” Rotelle is the word for “wheels,” and linguine translates “little tongues.” We all love spaghetti, but did you know it literally means “strings”? Many recipes call for pasta cooked al dente, but what exactly does that mean? The phrase means “to the tooth,” meaning the pasta will offer a little resistance when bitten, still a little firm after being cooked. • Antipasto isn’t pasta, but is served “before the pasta,” and is a plate of appetizers, including sliced meats and cheeses, along with olives. Don’t confuse antipasto with pesto, which is a green sauce prepared from fresh basil, olive oil, garlic, pine nuts, and parmesan cheese. • What do you get when you order filet mignon? The name translates from the French, with filet meaning “thick slice” and mignon translating “dainty.” It’s 14 a piece of beef coming from the Sheridan small end of the tenderloin, found Good Health Emporium Leather on the back rib cage of the aniOutfitters • mal. Because this area is not weight-bearing, the tissue is not toughened by exercise, giving the Werco Ave. filet its tenderness. Similarly, beef tournedos are filets cut from the • beef tenderloin and often cooked Firestone Complete with bacon or lard.

UNUSUAL FOOD NAMES (continued): • Julius Caesar had nothing to do with the Caesar salad. It was first created by an Italian restaurant owner named Caesar Cardini in 1924 at his Tijuana, Mexico, restaurant. His version of romaine lettuce, garlic, oil, Parmesan cheese, Worcestershire sauce, and a coddled egg became popular with Hollywood celebrities when he opened a restaurant there, one that still operates today, over 60 years after his death. • Don’t confuse sauerbraten with sauerkraut. The former is a lowcooked beef stew, while the latter is spicy, fermented shredded cabbage. And don’t think that head cheese is any kind of cheese at all. It’s a gelatinous cold cut made from chopped-up bits of the head of a pig or cow, set in aspic. This unusual meat jelly often includes the tongue and sometimes the feet and heart of the animal. • Several desserts have unusual names including Brown Betty, which is a fruit dessert with a breadcrumb topping, served with whipped cream. The first printed recipe for Brown Betty appeared in 1864. Although Baked Alaska is named for our 49th state, it actually originated in France. It’s made from ice cream and sponge cake, topped with meringue. The dessert is then placed in a very hot oven just long enough to firm up the meringue, which acts as an insulator and keeps the ice cream from melting. In 1876, the head chef at New York City’s Delmonico’s Restaurant named the dessert Baked Alaska in honor of the recentlyacquired Alaskan territory. • Thankfully, grasshopper pie doesn’t contain any jumping insects, but rather is a fluffy dessert containing crème de menthe and white crème de cacao liqueurs in a cookie-crumb crust. • An unusual name for something so simple! Potlikker is the liquid left over after cooking green leafy vegetables, such as collard greens or turnip greens. Usually the greens are cooked with ham hocks or bacon fat. • How about a little scrapple? Introduced by the Germans in Pennsylvania in the late 17th century, it’s a mixture of pork scraps, corn meal, flour, and spices that is shaped into a loaf, sliced, and fried. Fans of this unusual food serve it for breakfast topped with ketchup or maple syrup. • What about all the sauces we order on our dinners? When you order your steak smothered with béarnaise sauce, it will come with a creamy sauce of egg yolks, butter, shallots, vinegar, wine, and tarragon. Eggs Benedict comes covered with Hollandaise sauce, an emulsion of eggs yolks, butter, and lemon juice. Your fish dinner might be served with remoulade sauce, similar to tartar sauce, a mayonnaise mixed with pickles, horseradish, anchovies, and capers, flavored with curry. • While in New York City, you might want to try an egg cream, which ironically, contains neither eggs nor cream. It’s a fountain drink made from milk, seltzer, and chocolate syrup, a concoction dreamed up by Brooklyn candy store owner Louis Auster in the late 1800s. • Ordering bangers and mash while in Great Britain will get you a dish of pork sausage and mashed potatoes, while bubble and squeak will be a mixture of mashed potatoes, and boiled cabbage, fried until brown. Yorkshire pudding might sound like dessert, but it’s really a batter of eggs, flour, and milk baked in meat drippings until puffy. If you order “toad in the hole,” your Yorkshire pudding will contain bits of sausage.

Volunteerism Revisited --DEAR PAW’S CORNER: You recently updated readers about ways to help pets, including volunteering at shelters. Another place to volunteer is at an assisted-living, or senior-care, facility. Many residents have their pets and sometimes aren’t able to exercise them enough, and they appreciate someone to take their pets on walks or to help bathe them. There is even a need of “babysitting” if the owner goes in for a procedure. -- David P., via email PLUTO DEMOTED DAY August 24 has been observed as Pluto Demoted Day since 2006. Why did this happen? Follow along and learn about the discovery of what was once considered a planet in our solar system. • From 1930 until 2006, Pluto was classified as the ninth planet in our solar system, joining Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. A 23-year-old astronomer from Kansas, Clyde Tombaugh, was a researcher at Flagstaff, Arizona’s Lowell Observatory in 1930, when he discovered the celestial body that would be named Pluto. An eleven-year-old schoolgirl from Oxford, England, proposed the name of Pluto, after the Greek god of the underworld, with her suggestion beating out scores of other submissions. • Pluto consists of one-third water and two-thirds rock. It’s only about 1,600 miles (2,575 km) in diameter, smaller than the Earth’s moon, only 66% of the moon’s diameter and one-sixth of its mass. Pluto’s surface temperature is -380 degrees F (-229 C). • Pluto is part of the Kuiper Belt, a region of the solar system beyond the planets, similar to an asteroid belt. After the discovery of Pluto in 1930, astronomers began to speculate about the existence of more such bodies in the region. In 1992, the second object in the area was found. More than 1,000 more objects have been discovered so far, and an estimated 100,000 more are believed to exist. • In order to be classified as a planet, a celestial body must meet three conditions: It “must be in orbit around a star, while not being itself a star, be massive enough for its own gravity to pull it into a nearly spherical shape, and must have cleared the neighborhood around its orbit.” (continued on last page)

DEAR DAVID: That’s a great idea! While not all assisted-living facilities permit pets, many do, since they often have residential facilities in which the residents have varying levels of independence. Most facilities have a volunteer coordinator; if not, there’s always an activities director. Contact information for a facility near you can be found on the Web or in the local phone book. According to AARP’s Create the Good organization, senior-care facilities have a great need for volunteers at many levels, from simple visits to say hello to more involved care or administrative assistance. To volunteer, you generally will need to pass a background check and follow the facility’s regulations about visits and volunteer activities, including pet care. You can learn more at www. createthegood.org. If there isn’t a pet-friendly senior-care facility in your area, you still can reach out to seniors in your community. Talk to seniors that you know in the neighborhood on a regular basis to make sure things are going OK, and ask if they ever need free pet-sitting from time to time. Or, look for senior-care organizations locally and ask if their clients have pet-care needs. Send your questions about pet care to ask@pawscorner.com. (c) 2015 King Features Synd., Inc.
NOTEWORTHY INVENTORS: Lots of things we take for granted were invented by Canadians whose names have long been forgotten. Let’s pay tribute to these clever individuals who brought us some of life’s necessities. • We’ve been eating instant mashed potatoes since 1962, thanks to the invention of chemist Edward Asselbergs, a graduate of the University of Toronto. In 1960, Asselbergs was working for the Canadian Department of Agriculture and began developing a process of cooking, mashing, and dehydrating potatoes that would later be reconstituted by adding hot water or milk. That wasn’t Asselbergs’ only accomplishment – he was also responsible for the invention of an infrared apple peeler. • Folks living in snowy climates can thank Alfred Sicard for his invention of the snow blower. As a young person, Sicard would frequently watch his neighbor use a threshing machine to harvest wheat. In his later years, Sicard experimented with a similar idea, using blades to clear roads, and in 1925, he built his first working snow blower. Within two years, the community of Outremont, Quebec, was using his contraption to clear its roadways. Sicard’s company is still in existence, a division of SMI-Snowblast of Watertown, New York. • Two newspapermen brought us one of the greatest board games of all time. Photo editor Chris Haney and sports journalist Scott Abbott were playing Scrabble in 1979 when they decided to invent their own game. They came up with trivia questions in six categories – Geography, Entertainment, History, Art & Literature, Science & Nature, and Sports, and called their invention Trivial Pursuit. Their creation has blossomed into a television game show, online game, arcade game, and home computer version. • Lewis Urry graduated from the University of Toronto in 1950 with a degree in chemical engineering and went to work for Eveready shortly afterward. We have this creative engineer to thank for the invention of both the alkaline battery and the lithium battery, which he developed while working at Eveready. • We might not call our money “greenbacks” were it not for Thomas Sterry Hunt, a chemist and mineralogist who came up with the idea of using chromium as the base for a green ink to print bank notes. His formula was a substance that could not be removed by acid or alkali without destroying the paper. Although he patented his invention, he did not receive much monetary reward from it. • Toronto-born Alfred Gross invented several communications devices, including the first modern walkie-talkie. While aboard a cruise boat on Lake Erie in 1927 at age nine, Gross met the radio operator and was allowed to listen to the boat’s transmissions. A life-long fascination with wireless telegraphy was the result, leading to his creation of the walkie-talkie during World War II. In the following years, he patented a Citizens’ Band radio telephone pager, and cordless telephone. Unfortunately, before he could market them successfully, his patents expired, and he failed to make money from his inventions. • Another war-time invention came from Newfoundland native Cluny MacPherson. As a medical doctor and principal medical officer for the First Newfoundland Regiment of the St. John’s Ambulance Brigade during World War I, MacPherson devised a method of protection against poisonous gas, the world’s first effective gas mask. He fashioned it from a German helmet seized from a captured prisoner, adding a canvas hood with transparent eyepieces. He treated it with chlorine-absorbing chemicals to counter the chlorine found in the gas.

PLUTO DEMOTED DAY (continued): • “Clearing the neighborhood” refers to a planet’s ability to remove smaller bodies near its orbit by “collision, capture, or gravitational disturbance.” It is this condition that qualified Pluto, because it has other objects in its orbit, as well as moving into the orbit of Neptune during its 246-year revolution around the Sun. • Now and then, Pluto’s orbit actually takes it closer to the Sun than Neptune’s, although Pluto is farther away from the Sun. • In August of 2006, members of the International Astronomical Union gathered together in Prague to determine the status of Pluto. It was voted to demote Pluto to a dwarf planet, joining four others recognized by the IAU – Ceres, Haumea, Makemake, and Eris. Pluto is the second most massive of its kind, behind Eris, the largest. At one time, Ceres had been classified as the eighth planet when first discovered in 1801 between Mars and Jupiter. It remained in that category for about 50 years, until astronomers began to discover more and more similar bodies in the same area, and reclassified Ceres as an asteroid. • When Eris was discovered in 2005, initial reports called it the tenth planet, setting up a debate in the IAU as to what constitutes a planet. One proposal suggested including Charon, Eris, and Ceres in the official list of planets. The term dwarf planet was suggested, although many astronomers refer to these bodies as planetoids. On August 24, 2006, Pluto was officially demoted when it failed to reach the criteria agreed upon for classification as a planet.
