Very many people and they are right, because bechamel is just butter, flour
and milk.
And Mornay sauce is bechamel plus cheese and, as I discover today, egg yolk.
Then one can shove anything in theyr sauces and call them as one likes, but
bechamel IS just a sauce (mine is not white) with milk and roux.
