Dill pickle chicken wings
Dill pickles are good for grease splatter burns. I keep a jar in my kitchen for first aid. ð Mustard works good too. I know people that love dill pickle anything. I am not one of those people. ð I do share your likeness for blue cheese tho. ð

Beef Suet
I've been cooking for most of my life as well. Twenty years of it, I actually got paid for it. At home since it's just me, I like one pot meals. And sometimes even eat out of the pot. I read or watch tons of recipes, then condense them to suit my liking. As a great cook once said; A recipe is but a road map. Shows you where you are and where you want to go, but it's up to you to choose the scenic route or the shortcut, as long as you get there.

The history of Spam
Most of this video is all bout the history of Spam. While also including an old recipe of cream cheese and spam. The video creator wasn't too impressed. But did his homework on where Spam came from. I thought interesting. The history of Spam

What Did You Eat Today?
Grilled 4.59 lbs of chicken leg quarters. Ate all but one. Had a cup of almost decaf. What I mean by almost. I buy cheap decaf and add a teeny amount of Folgers reg. Sometimes I have decaf, sometimes I have almost decaf. Just enough caf to keep the caffeine monsters at bay. .... Then sometimes I grind some beans and get the full effect.

What Did You Eat Today?
For lunch at work, I had a five egg pizza. ie, omelet with pepperoni and a few slices of mild cheddar. Usually I find a knob of butter in the kitchen but not today. And I wasn't gonna open a box so I opted for coconut oil. Musta used a lil much as a couple hours later I could've threaded a screen door and not touched a wire. That'll teach me. Brought home some baby back ribs that's thawing out.

Gout!
When I have a flair up, that's where I get it also. In the left big toe. The last flair up I had, I had ate about a quarter pound of kippered beef sticks. I'm gonna go with maybe it was all the black pepper in it. ? I don't know for sure. Maybe it was some other chemical in it? I haven't had it since and have stayed away from kippered beef as well as black pepper. I know black pepper is high in oxalates . Have since switched to white pepper on occasion. ... Us people that are susceptible to gout and/or kidney stones need to lower the oxalate count as much as possible.

What is your favorite way to eat/prepare eggs?
I get my eggs from two batches of chickens. One friend, his wife spoils the hens and the yolks are a dark orange. The other friend, I don't think his wife does anything except feed them. they're pale compared to the other friend. They have darkened up somewhat since I been taking them old produce from the store. But they're eggs and they do eat. I haven't paid for an egg for a couple years, except for the delivery of produce scraps.

Glyphosates
A lady came in the store today and bought a bag of oats. I asked, Gonna make cookies? She said No, gonna put it in my smoothie. And she had all the confidence she was doing the right thing. I've never had a smoothie. Had a slushy once. And looking back, the slushy was probably better for me than a smoothie.

Salts
Last year I put one of my Magnesium complex tabs and a Potassium tab and some sea salt in a mortar and pestled it to dust then dumped it in my water jug. I only did that on really hot days that I was outside for an extended period. .... I had read up on all the recipes for DIY electrolyte mixes and figured I already had measured doses in tablet form. Is it the right way? Did it work? Who knows. But it didn't hurt and was way cheaper.

What Did You Eat Today?
On days I work, they urge me to have lunch or I will surely starve to death. ð So I usually have a four egg omelet cooked in butter with pepperoni and added butter and sometimes cheese. I call it my egg pizza. On most of the rest of the days, I eat Omad. I've done a four day fast three times over the years. Usually it's a 48 give-er take hour fast when the urge strikes me. And I too wish I had skipped the years of Dumpster diet. I blame Mom. She always said to Clean your plate. And I did, no matter how high I piled it. ðĪŠ

Switchin teams (sorry everyone)
I bet that's neat! I had a friend that liked to play MS flight simulator. (RIP) He also flew a cessna for real. They say you can use Wine or Steam to play MS games on Linux. (No, not that kind of wine) The only games I play is basic Solitaire on my phone. .... I do still have and old Windows XP with Command and Conquer I sometimes turn on. I'd have to blow the cobwebs out of it if I ever fire it up again. Sometimes I miss the old XTs with 20 meg hard drives.

Switchin teams (sorry everyone)
I went from winders 7 to Linux Mint. Refused to try windows ten. I have two laptops with Mint and one Chromebook. Have an Android phone and have most apps uninstalled and mainly use F-droid for apps. I have no ads nor spam. I remember the TRS 80, the Sinclair 1000, the Tandy 1000 and Compac and IBM. Had one of the first laptops that was the size of a sewing machine case. And just as heavy. ðĪŠ

SPAM... in a can. Not the kind in your inbox
I bought a case of Vienna sausages and a case of spam from the little Mom/Pop grocery I part time at. Dated Oct 27. And figure if kept cool, would probably go alil further. Already got bout a half case of corned beef which I prefer over the spam. But hey, Spam might would beat the alternatives. .... I don't know if the Vienna sausages will make it till next year, much less 2027. As I have a soft spot for them.
