My aunt Orvie always brought this to the holiday gatherings. I imagine if you have never had it you could have quite a look on your face right now. But hey, it gets cold in ND and you need something to keep you warm and full, you can imagine in the old farm days, this would be simple available food. I think it is comfort food to the max!
