Food Then

I remember food was a lot simpler back in the day or maybe we were fancy and didn't know it.  Either way remember when we called:

Sour cream, sour cream and not Crème Fraîche

or

White sauce, white sauce and not Béchamel 

or

Cream puffs, cream puffs and not Profiteroles

or

Green onions, green onions and not Scallions

or

Green beans, green beans not Haricot Verts

I wonder with these fancy names if kids sit up and eat their food better?  "Come on, honey you need to finish your Haricot Verts before you can get down from the table?"  I don't think so.

A bean is a bean is a bean!
