As part of its new Horizon line, General Foods is testing a partially dehydrated spaghetti casserole that can be eaten on Friday by Catholics because its "meat" is actually made of soybeans. "It has everything," beams Mortimer, "including religion...
...under the fluoroscope-worked it up into the aorta, the body's main artery. When it was close to the heart, he slipped a thin polyethylene tube over the dangling end, worked this up the artery, using the steel string as a guide, then withdrew the guide.
