Industrial salt in the Great Lakes area is cheap. There are a couple of salt mines in the area, and I remember Cleveland had a salt mine under Lake Erie when I was a kid. Just barge it out to any of the ports on the Great Lakes, and viola! Cheap salt. So, the local municipalities can pack salt on the roads, and reduce…

I have multiple food allergies, but not peanut. I have always viewed it is my responsibility in my allergies, not the people around me. You really can’t control what other people do in a public setting in regards to food. Would it be nice if people didn’t feed their kids allergens while in a shopping cart? Yes. Don’t…

Can we take the Goodyear executives for the past twenty years in an RV road trip / goodwill cross country tour, say with some G159 tires. Careful not to overload the RV.... and make sure the executives are properly balanced.

Hollandaise should not be neon orange.

Yes, you can stuff thousands of disposable gloves into a box, and most people would just wash their hands instead of using the disposable gloves. So less waste than special packaging.

So, now the snack companies will supply the machines, and anything without their upc code goes to a delay?

To brie, or not to brie, what was the question?

The rustbucket test misses the boat on testing against a standard. The test needed three data points, the original test, the later rustbucket test, and a third test of the same age car, relatively free of rust. There may be a difference between just new and aged vehicles, but that was not tested. Components get…

Why work in the kitchen?

Disposable gloves if you are worried. No more packaging nightmares to help fix a problem that should not exist.

I do not care for lima beans. Ugh. Either way to starchy or cooked to mush does not taste good to me. My kids have had it once at the house, and I did not cook them.

Sounds like the performance royalties at venues tracking songs played, and leveling fines. Great for the governing body, uneven for the artists.

You are paranoid, but that doesn’t mean gluten is not out to get you. I would recommend moving away from the bakery, getting a gluten tester to see if you are getting accidental cross contamination from your normal diet, and get your doc to get you a tube of clobetasol propionate 05% for topical relief for the…

Yep. I avoid pizza places, KFC, and bakeries where flour can be in the air, never mind eating there. I cleaned out a cupboard when I first figured out I had celiac, and stirred up flour, and ended up sick with symptoms, sans the gastrointestinal issues. ...it was an interesting wake up call on celiac causing more than…

Yes, gluten is available, peanut is preorder.

Hmm. Testing to verify is great. I don’t see the same standard getting passed in the current environment in the USA.

Recipe missing the fermenting step to make garum.

Labels help to keep gluten free. Foods can still be unexpectedly cross contaminated in the production process. There currently are no government requirements to test to certify the finished product is gluten free in the USA. I would be surprised if testing was a requirement in other countries, due to the added…
