Hahahahhahoohohohohehehheeeheheeheehack hack hack. I much prefer your title! (Though I wonder if Secret Spice is Sporty Spice's (from the Spice Girls, duh!) long lost cousin...:) And maybe make it ": The Secret Spice" in tune with "The Secret Vice". Also, as much as I've been the one to bring up the topic over and over, I would like you to write the forward/introduction. Explaining what conlanging and conculturing is, what the recipes and descriptions are about and for, and so on. Would you? And finally, get me some submissions, all you people out there!! Like I said, in your conlang would be great, but a general survey of the culinary habits of your culture would be fine too! Recipes only in English are fine (I'm including John Cowan's meatloaf, for example, and Christophe's escargots, even if they're not entirely conculture related...). If nothing else, send me your recipes and I'll translate them into Aelya or Tatra or something. Or I'll hold them hostage and bug you with a vocab word a day until all the vocab for the recipe is done, and then bug you to translate it! I would really like to see this happen folks!
