I don't want to "stir up" trouble, (Lies!), but what the heck does "Ovaltine" mean, exactly. They're always just foisting these names on us, with no explanation. Why don't choosy mothers stop to say, "You're not getting any of that; it's got ovals in it". How can they sell it; why wouldn't we be suspicious, if nobody knows what it is? "It's Ovaltine." Yah? So what?

If somebody who goes to grocery stores knows who makes it, I'll call and ask them. Or we can let Holly or jp smell the bottle and chuck it for em.

"saltine", which is in my dictionary, shows no origin. Cheating bastards. I hate when dics do that.

Did I mention it's grouchy February for me? Sorry.
