I'm mostly S&T of Bing's AI sidebar bot. Scroo that. I have a good idea
how to conduct a search without that silly bugger's suggestions.

My first search engine was AltaVista. In many ways I still miss it.

Actually they leave my shoes alone They will, if POed at Dennis drag all
of his footwear out of his closet and scatter it about the premises. But
little gnawing on it.
This little gem is a famous and well-received in a spreading area of USA
as poutne is an Canuckistan .....
I cannot eat a whole one any longer. And have trouble getting wrapped
around a "pony" show (half-size) if truth be told. Bv)=
8 sl Bread; toasted
8 oz (to 12) meat(s) *
Hot french fries
Paprika
------------------------------HORSESHOE SAUCE------------------------------
12 oz Shredded American (mild
- Cheddar) cheese
2 tb Butter
1 ts Worcestershire sauce
1/4 ts Dry (Colman's) mustard
1/4 ts Ground red pepper
2 Egg yolks
1/2 c Stale beer
* Original meat in a Horseshoe was ham. Any meat can
be (and probably has been) used. My favourite is half-
hamburger and half crispy bacon. Seafood also works
well on this delight.
In a saucepan, melt together cheese and butter over low
heat. Stir in Worcester sauce, mustard and cayenne. Beat
the yolks and beer together and add to the sauce pan.
Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture thickens
and begins to bubble around the edges. Makes 4 cups.
On preheated dinner plates, arrange 2 toast slices each.
Top toast with meat. Pour a generous amount of Horseshoe
Sauce over meat.
Encircle each sandwich with hot french fries. Sprinkle
paprika (or cayenne) over sauce.
Makes 4 servings.
