That's a Ukrainian thing.

I grew up in Saskatchewan and have never heard about it until I had Christmas with my wife's family where its a tradition.

It is boiled in honey with walnuts scattered on top (at least the way my mom makes it). Its actually quite tasty.

Section 29

Was a dish named after one of the sections on the family farm in Saskatchewan that was almost too hilly to plow. Section 29 was basically a rich beef stew in a big pan with biscuits baked on the top. Somebody commented that it looked like that hilly section and the name stuck. (circa 1910)

I think we are talking about "buckwheat kasha", Either whole grain or cracked buckwheat cooked like rice. Has more flavour than rice.
