OK, I get it. I don't have any Germans, Irish or Italians in my
background so much of what is comfort food here is unknown by me. My
mother was a grown up picky eater, so if she didn't like it - I never
tasted it until I was a late teen to adult.

Some things are just too gross for me to even think about - like head
cheese (which is more than likely the inspiration for square loaf deli
ham).
