Agreed. (G)I won't shoot the piano player, nor the player piano.There have been piano players I've been

That way of thinking works with few ingredients,
mostly garlic.

It may or may not; I don't concern myself
with that most of the time.

Hah, chicken Caesar seems to me to be a
very invitation to disappointment!

Depends I suppose on the kind of irregularity of
the cutting, but in most cases jaggedy is going
to mean hand-cut.

So the amount of whatever-it-is that leaches

I'd rather have too little garlic than too much cilantro.
