J’Accuse!
Getting my letter to the editor published in Time Out Chicago was not the fame and fortune I had hoped! Now that ambition has died, this is what Heather Shouse, whom I have tepid feelings for, writes in rebuttal:
Congee is definitely a Chinese class; as are fish balls, but unfortunately we didn’t have room to include every comfort food from each country we covered, so we went with one.
Ahem, Ms. Shouse, I believe that I wrote in my email that your “fish balls” were patently offensive to the definition of “comfort food by country” because they were REGIONAL and UNPOPULAR. It’s like omitting mashed potoates from the U.S. in lieu of Terra chips. Anyways, she is wrong, I am right. Amen.
