Looking for anyone who knows what "Blueberry Grunt" is.  Whole family is from Nova Scotia where aparently it was an old favourite that "everyone" knew.  I've yet to find one single person from down home or elsewhere who have herd of it!   Mom's made it all my life, hate to find out that the whole family were spy's pretending to be upstanding Easterners when they were actually gathering intell for otherwise unsavery persons.
