Now THAT sounds good. I had a Reuben at a deli yesterday and
strongly suspect they ran out of the nice hand-carved corned beef.
The stuff seemed to be sandwich meat, which I hadn't noticed
there before.

[Mexican oregano]


I dunno. I use Mexican oregano and California laurel just
like I would the old-word herbs of the same name. They are
stronger and different flavored. They're what grows around
here and they are fresher.

I would like to get really fresh versions of the European varieties,
but even at Penzey's they are not as fresh as the local varieties.

Greek oregano fresh from the garden is definitely a different herb with a
somewhat spicy edge to the taste.

I've raised some which I think are just ornamental variations, golden
oregano for example. I don't notice anything distinctive about it's taste
but it does have a nice color.

I've also seen "Dittany of Crete" mislabeled as Mexican Oregano. Most
unfortunate.

A couple years ago a loved one was in the hospital for over a week.
This particular hospital had pretty good food as far as their featured
entree of the day went. Most everything else was as you described, as
is almost everything at some hospitals. http://www.ssmhealth.com/ssmstmarys/Pages/home.aspx
I'm going to see if I can make my physical therapy appointments closer
to lunch time since they're right across the street from the hospital.

According to wikipedia it's Lippia graveolens. This comes with the
usual caveat about wikipedia - It has a lower error rate than printed
encyclopedias and it's generally good enough for me but I would want to
double check in a botany library it it was for a written prescription.

Old world oregano is supposed to be Origanum vulgare and old world
majoram aka sweet marjoram is supposed to be Origanum majorana.

Same order, different family, genus and species.
