Greencracked brittlegill. A variety of wild mushroom which, as its name implies, is a sort of olive green with darker green markings and with creamy brittle gills. Most brittlegills resemble other ones that are inedible and some will cause gastric problems. You can normally detect what type it is by the flavour. A tiny tasting will immediately reveal whether or not it is edible, but it is worth spitting it out immediately if you detect a bitter taste.
A slab-shaped cheese from Normandy with a firm paste and yellow rind. It is a farmhouse or dairy cheese from Auge, similar to Pont l'Évêque, with a spicy tang.
Bonnezeaux is smooth, sweet white wine produced in Anjou from Chenin Blanc (or Pineau de la Loire) grapes on the steep hillside on the right bank of the Layon near Thouarce, within the Coteaux du Layon. This aromatic Coteaux-du-Layon ages extremely well. (AOC).
