One important disclaimer: it's been about a year since I read Pfanz's 
book, so be forewarned I might give that book shorter shrift than its 
due.  And as always, "I don't claim to be no expert in this field" - 
although I'm (slowly?) trying to get there, so caveat emptor (for 
sure).

(snip of good stuff)

Thank you - excellent stuff - BTW, I always buy Kosher hot dogs.

Best,
