Very nice, Shelby...and cute mouser!

Yes.

You can't safely count any residual nitrite in the bacon in terms of botulinum toxin control when smoking at low temperature because it's an unknown (and likely very low if recommended nitrite limits and a cure accelerators have been used) without laboratory analysis.

I use a grill basket placed directly on the coals. Anyway, here's the Alton Brown video.....

Can't remember this ever happening at the same meal but I can remember left-over rice or bread being converted into rice or bread pudding for subsequent meals even though dessert wasn't all that common at our house.

Caveat Emptor! It's marketing hype...just a label...take or leave it.

After criticism, Whole Foods defends food rating system...

Ketchup on a hot dog? Horrible flavor clash!!! I absolutely, positively never put ketchup on hot dogs! Never!!! My favorite dog: "Texas Hot"...beef dog, chili sauce, mustard, fresh chopped onion on a steamed roll!

We certainly do eat some meals together. My diet is somewhat restricted for health reasons (unfortunately) and the better half is picky...so it's just easier to prepare meals separately a good bit of the time.

I live with a very picky eater. I see no need to make a big deal of it. We eat most meals separately.

FWIW, Toma Verde is a fast-maturing cultivar.

Find some seeds and start some plants, it's not too late. We have about the same first and last frost dates here and I haven't started mine yet...there's still time.

No way!!! Kumato is Sygenta crap! I'll wait for the good stuff! "To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven."

Almost every day, sometimes 2 at a time. Cheesemaking, sausagemaking, tenderizing cheap cuts, etc. etc. etc. Tough Cuts: Transformed https://www.chefsteps.com/activities/pork-steaks#/!

Same in this neck-of-the-woods. Folks have really opened up to new things. 20-25 years ago, most folks wouldn't look at a tomato unless it was a red oblate globe, red beefsteak or red cherry.

Thanks. I'm well aware of those markets. The farm (which I sold in December 2013) was about 55 miles from Ithaca...in Pennsylvania...too far for my farm business model.

Yeah, I think it's funny too! Ramps are an ubiquitous pedestrian food here, the woods at my farm were full of them! I wish I could have got $5 a bunch for them...let alone $16 a pound!!!! That's crazy!

I watched the first show a couple nights ago...I thought it was quite good.

$74.99 w/Prime Amazon prices often fluctuate.

Always eat SPAM just before and after midnight to conveniently distribute sodium intake over 2 days in respect to the recommended allowance.

Yeah, that website sucks! Here are the 'menus.' Sample Dinner Menu http://media.wix.com/ugd/453aca_b2790301edde4a0b96212ff64825df0d.pdf Sample Brunch Menu http://media.wix.com/ugd/453aca_317286022b5c4942bca3df52033774d3.pdf

Fried dough...butter and salt while frying.

I have one of those worthless things!!!!

I've lived with this issue for many years. The smells don't bother me, what bothers me is the fatty film that tends to form on stuff in the kitchen, especially up high.
