The Gov't decided to make that an impossibility and made the manufacturers add salt (sodium? whatever) to the wine so that it wasn't drinkable and could only be used for flavouring/seasoning. Bunch of winos died in the weeks following, but the rest figured it out.
So if you've got a recipe, cut back on the salt if it's got cooking wine in it too.

I'm looking for a neck tie with the Canucks as a design, does anyone know where to get one?! Preferably local but even online is ok! I can't find it anywhere!
I've found some of other teams but no Canucks ... 
(I think this one is ugly, but just a sample lol)
