Dear Julius,
In Southeastern and Central Brazil we eat the leaves of Xanthosoma
sagittifolium (people call it "Taioba") and it is delicious (I liked it
even when I wasn't an aroid specialist!).

Dear Eduardo! Good to hear from you! Please send me your E-mail address,
as I sent you a long letter a week ago but it was returned to me yesterday as
"address unknown". I sent it to --eggon@guarany.cpd.und.br , and like I
said, it came back. I will re-send it as soon as I hear from you.
I hope that you enjoyed my discription of the Trinidadian dish, "calaloo",
but wonder what our Australian friend must think! Come visit me sometime and
I`ll prepare some for you, I promise that you`ll love it!!
I look forward to hearing from you--- Julius. ju-bo@ msn.com
