sionnach commented on the word funistrada
An imaginary food name invented by the U.S. armed forces to see if participants of written food surveys were paying attention or just answering randomly. In a 1974 survey respondents ranked funistrada higher than eggplant, instant coffee, apricot pie, harvard beets, canned lima beans, grilled bologna, and cranberry juice. Two other imaginary foods fared less well - buttered ermal and braised trake.

Reminds me of a dish I had in Tuscany many years ago: funghistrada - a nice baked dish of mushrooms, eggs and bread... Ahhh... the '70's.
