by Monda on Mon Dec 22, 2008 09:13 PM PSTFirst of all did you not ask for 5 food items? The man who won, listed an entire webpage! Besides he's mixed some of the Iranian garm/sard items with those recognized in the Chinese medicine as yin or yang (some I believe are differnt from ours through tebb sonnati). For example, since when do we Iranians consider coconut, fig or banana as sardi??
I don't want to sound like a sore loser nor have I researched John Ronald's food items to consider him totally incorrect. But I am an Iranian foodie and someone named Ronald clicking on a full page of foods as garm or sard, is bugging the heck out of me :o)
Can we put this issue to scrutiny by those such as Ebi aka Hadji, Nazy Kaviani, IRANdokht, American Wife or Majid, bajenagh naghi, Iranian Reader, and many more who sound way more Iranian than Mr. John Ronald?!
If I am proven wrong, then I will be grateful to Mr. Ronald as well as the iranian.com community for motivating me to study a subject before opening my mouth :o)
Cheers,
Monda
