Yup, Got it.

New problem though. On line:

newclass = new.classobj(classname + '_' + food, (mixin, main), {})

received "TypeError: metaclass conflict: the metaclass of a
derived class must be a (non-strict) subclass of the
metaclasses of all its bases". This had not happened when
was written using 'normal' style like:

class (SaltyMixIn, Main): pass
