  Remarks: This recipe can be found in many very old books, and may have come
  form the Old Norse language, where a heap of corn was known as Mugi. The
  word can be traced back through early English, where corn was refered to as
  Muge and later Muga. In it's ealiest form, it was probably made with yeast
  and honey instead of baking powder and syrup/sugar.
