I just thought it was interesting to read that whole grain products had a negative impact as well.

Ann, it's in Steve's post above (right above Zach's) in the quote box. It's from the site he posted a link to.

Steve, what an interesting project. That must be exciting!

+ 1.1 Eastern (Eugene, Enzo)
+ 1.2 Northern (Niko, Pearl, Peach)
+ 1.0 Tanimbar Island (TQ)

Well, unless you really study the carepage, you'd probably guess superworm! (which is exactly what is happening!)

I don't think I voted until silkworms was put on there....but I'm not certain. I was sick - that's my excuse.

For those interested, I was goofing around on Ebay today, and there are a few auctions for Silkworms and Butterworms.. I know both are a little hard to come by.. But they are both available on ebay.
