Food & Drink - 8 February 2007

I've been recommended for a high cholesterol test, and really just want to know why. I don't really care, but it just seems odd- y'know, as a vegan I consume no animal products, and I don't think that I've really ever knowingly consumed a tropical oil, or at least I haven't often. But they recommended me for the test because of heredity, and I was wondering why they thought that high cholesterol would still be an issue. Can anyone explain?

I noticed that they can be cooked for hours in stews and soups but never turn to mush and break down like regular potatoes. Why is this?

Last night I made cupcakes and icing from scratch. The icing was made with 8oz of cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar. After I frosted the cupcakes, I forgot to put them in the fridge and they stayed out all night.

Are they okay to eat still, or is the icing no good? They are for a friend's birthday dinner tonight, so I need to know if I have to make new ones!

I've had this at several resturants and have yet to make a decent one myself. Lets keep it simple please no bells and wistles, also I like it with diced onion (that's the way I've had it). Please note what's best...fresh or frozen spinach (the fresh was too mushy before), and is fresh or grated parmesan best (the fresh stunk to high heavens and wasn't as cheesy as the resturant style).

Please be specific about this - I know it's a lot smaller but I was wondering how much smaller. If you could give me both sizes in ounces, that would be LOVELY! Thanks for your help.
