I'm liking this idea. Wonderful if the great state of Ohio would still insist you go inside a burial vault. We're so progressive here.

I don't know how I feel about this. At the CIA (Culinary Institute of America) I baked a pork loin in banana leaves. It was a great recipe that I don't think I will ever be able to repeat now.

. Because I think would be perfect in an oven for about 2 hours at low heat. Maybe I'm being a little harsh on
, seems too much like torture (especially since isn't dead yet).
