+ all the additives and hormones. but i think it may get passed down through the generations too.. food is funky in the USA.
do you understand that most of the health problems that people face in the western world such as diabetes, cancer, stroke, obesity,high blood pressure, etc. are caused by unhealthy diets laden in sugars, simple carbs, processed foods and unhealthy fats?

USA has a mix from all corners of the earth.. poland's mix is a little bit more limited, but yes, it's similar.. maybe why we're allies.. many things in common.

there sin't one Polish look out there. there has been lot's of blood mixing over the centuries. lot's of blood from asia and other parts of europe. just look into whom the poles fought over the centuries and you'll see who we're mixed with. the only thing that's common is the higher cheek bones.

there are many "black" breads.. hard to tell what the one you tasted was like. and this being in Mass., that bread might have been a MA-PL bread anyway.

Food / What exactly is Polish Bread? [91]
recipes 2 and 3 are some of the closest i have seen to describe the polish bread. i don't think you can make it in a bread machine though... partially because of the hot water and/or the egg white.. which is sometimes brushed on after the second water sprinkling.
from what i have also heard is that the oven needs to be of a certain type or construction.. what type i have no idea..
however, one of these days i am going to give it a go in my dutch oven. i'll let you know how it comes out, if it comes out. :D

Language / "Poles" or "Polish people" - which is better to use? [200]
beacause they are actually netherlanders.

If people from Poland are called "Poles," why aren't people from Holland called "Holes"?
beacause they are actually netherlanders.
“Pollock”
that also = pollack and there are a few other veriosn too. btw. pollock is also kind of a fish.
Show me an english dictionary that states that then !!
