OTOH, in the Triangle we do have A Southern Season, Fowler's Gourmet,
eleventy-zillion Asian food markets, etc., so that if you *do* want
to cook up some Salty Dou Hua, or a Thai curry, or a West African
palm-oil-based soup, or some feety Gorgonzola, or just scarf down a 
couple of gallons Devon Double Cream, in that dark night of the soul 
when it is always three-thirsty in the morning, you can do so with 
ingredients you've laid in from local groceries.  (Plus, if you
don't mind scaling electrified fences, you can get really, *really*
fresh lemur steaks, even -- nay, *especially* -- late at night.) 

On The Third Hand, vippysoo is within hailing distance of the
Texas Tavern in Roanoke, so maybe Blacksburg *is* the culinary
place where it's at, after all.
