Abstract
Travel broadens the mind, they say, and this week we have an international flavour to our collection of food facts as we hop from one country to the next.
* There’s no meat in Glamorgan sausages – they are made from cheese.
* The main ingredient of the dish Scotch Woodcock is not a bird but a fish – the anchovy.
* The name of the Italian pasta Vermicelli translates as ‘little worms’.
* The sweet cocktail syrup Grenadine is made from pomegranates; India is the world’s largest producer of the fruit.
