Chill. i posted this sometime ago, and it started an echo-wide discussion on the use of petroleum byproducts in foodstuffs...few rocks were thrown, and we divided about equally on those who add the paraffin themselves and those who buy the prepared product, and pretend not to know that the paraffin is there...either way, these are good, and while you're at it, you might as well go ahead and make a double batch...
