Sorry, Jorge, I'm standing by my opinion that dried parsley is good only
for garnishing potato salad. You're wrong. I'm right. '-) If you
can't find fresh parsley in your local supermarket in the winter,
Sulphur is in bad shape! <grin> I can find it up here in south Canada
year round -- for less than a buck for a bunch that will last a month,
properly cared for.
