My wife puts A-1 on black and/or purple hulled peas. My in laws showed up unexpectedly one time and drank my good beer and expected hoe de oeuvre (sp). I drained the liquid from a cottage cheese container, mixed A1 into the curds and served it with ritz crackers and a Lowery's shaker and past used by date mini carrots. They ATE it. Now they REQUEST it.
