You using a different kind of sumac than the rest of us? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumac#In_food

I stand corrected on that one. I assumed it was sumac bark, and you know what they say about assumption. It makes an ass out of u and mption.

The bit about powdered sumac (bark?) being a powerful dye for marble is pretty interesting. I wish there was an example photo.
