Glad I'm not the only one who likes them (or even knows what they are!)... I know what you mean, though; too acidic is no good, and sometimes they can get too oily as well.

Been really really lazy cooking-wise. Thank GOD for Trader Joe's frozen dinners... Last night it was Chicken Gorgonzola and tonight it was Chicken Serenada, with steamed broccoli with garlic and onions.
