Have you ever really
considered what
goes into a meal for
thousands?

of a day passes at the

offices of Camp Tamarack
without some world leader
calling for Harvey Finkelberg.
There he is, hard at work trying to
plan a summer curriculum and line
up those counselors when he's inter-
rupted.
"It's Bill Clinton on the line," his
assistant calls.
"Him — again?" And Finkelberg is
forced to pick up the phone, though
his response is always the same, "I
can't give you that information."

1/16
1998

Two minutes later it's Boris Yeltsin,
or Tony Blair, or Benjamin
Netanyahu, or maybe Eva Peron
come back from the dead. It's that

important.
They all want the same thing, of
course.
Camp Tamarack's recipes.
Now, at last, secret files
obtained by The AppleTree
reveal the complex measurements
and precise ingredients that go
into a Tamarack meal — fed
each day to thousands! But
keep this to yourself. Or, at least
charge a bundle for it if anyone
asks.

Lunch,
For A Bunch

The hands-down favorite meal at
Camp Tamarack is a lunch of
grilled cheese and tomato soup,
Finkelberg says.
"Here's how you make it:
take one piece of processed
cheese, put it between two pieces
of white bread and grill it.
Now do that about 4,000
times.
"Next, open a tin — a large tin
of tomato soup. Pour a whole
bunch of these into a big pot and
warm."

Ready for more?
"Corn on the cob is popular, too,
Finkelberg says. "To make that, get
5,000 pieces of corn, peel it, boil
it, and serve."
If you've managed to survive this,
proceed directly to the much-loved
ice-cream sundae.
"Take some vanilla ice cream,"
Finkelberg says. "Add caramel or
chocolate sauce, some sprinkles,
maybe some strawberry sauce and
more chocolate sauce."
Ah, complete satisfaction.
