Hey, you're right! And who the fu*k needs warm food? I've eaten cold liver box ("maksalaatikko" in Finnish - a traditional Finnish fast food) for years... BTW, some of the traditional Finnish dishes are perfect for one-handing and fast-fooding. Maksalaatikko already mentioned (if you don't know, what it is, it's smashed liver and some raisins in a box). Some other good candidates are perunalaatikko, lanttulaatikko, porkkanalaatikko, mammi and lihaperunasoselaatikko (different thingies in a box). They're perfect: They're already in an easy-to-use box. They can be eaten warm or cold. The boxes are small, so they easily fit next to keyboard even on a crowded worktable. And because of this, you can eat them with other hand while surfing the net with the other. They're not liquid, so you don't mess up anything too badly if the box gets fallen over. > but then I get dirty looks from all the Finns who were > raised to use fork + knife even when it's something > totally mushy like meatloaf or mashed potatos. Finns should get back to their roots! We didn't need fork and knife back in the year 300! Those damn Christians spoiled it all... ---> Jarmo Lundgren Multimediatsaari Helsingin Sanomat, Verkkoliite p. 09-1227555 / 040-5345868
