Thanks for piping up, Peter! I was beginning to feel like it was me against
the world. :)

>>>Egg yolks, in particular, seem to me an ideal baby food...

>>What???!!!

You're probably right about the larvae. Bone marrow might be a contender as
well. And the Eskimos get lots of milage out of dried salmon roe for their
little ones. The list of raw baby foods is so long it's a wonder anyone
ever went to the trouble of cooking them.

Of course, the ideal baby food is breast milk from a properly nourished
mother, eh?
