boiled custard

That looks like what is called in Kentucky, "country ham bacon". It isn't really bacon at all, but cured smoked ham , thinly sliced. http://www.keeneshams.net/products/bacon.htm I Googled for that link, I don't know if they ship to Canada.

This may be off-topic and unnecessary, but here his a page that explains Starbucks lingo(what's a "venti"?). http://www.quicksilverweb.net/sbucks/sbcharts.htm Here is Starbucks' nutrition info page: http://www.starbucks.com/retail/nutrition_beverages.asp I don't drink coffee, and I've never been to a Starbucks,but I saw the first link and I thought it would be helpful.

Thank you.

Here are two recipes for boiled custard similar to my mother's. http://food4.epicurious.com/HyperNews/get/...s/15/4/1/7.html http://www.cooks.com/rec/doc/0,1640,147177-227202,00.html It isn't really boiled, but cooked in a double boiler. I guess the name is meant to differentiate it from a baked custard. My mother heats the milk first, then beats the eggs , then tempers the beaten eggs with a little hot milk. The egg-milk mixture is slowly added to the remaining milk, then the sugar, salt, and vanilla are added. The custard is done when it coats the back of a spoon. Refrigerate then serve(in small glasses, it is very rich).
