Why can't they make something that tastes good using vegetable oil, egg yolk, vinegar, salt, monosodium glutamate and spice? And the other question: What is it? |

Most places will just let >you have a few for free. Huh? An opened jar of Hellmans can sit in the fridge for a year or two, even longer. Yoose are the filthy slobs who dip your dirty utensils in the jar and contaminate it. Jarred mayo doesn't need refrigeration until opened... it sits on the store shelves with no refrigeration. The unopened jar in my fridge says best if used by 10:2028... I keep mayo and other condiments refrigerated from the time they come home, hard to break old habits. The unoppened go into the basement fridge until needed... I have several bottled salad dressings, mustards, etal in the basement fridge. Canned fish is kept in the basement fridge, we like tuna, sardines, etc. cold when opened to eat. The basement fridge is always full of unopened foods; pickles, olives, jams, coffee, tea... I don't remember all that's in there until I look... canned beverages too... costs less to run a full fridge. It's top freezer is kept filled with meats I intend to braise, frozen veggies, butter, foods I cooked, etc. We found having a second refrigerator freezer serves us better than a seperate large stand alone freezer. For just the two of us we don't need a seperate freezer. If we have extra grocery money it makes a lot more sense to keep it in an interest bearing bank account... we rather use the market's refrigerators/freezers. We don't see any point in filling our freezer with meats just because they're on sale, meats are on sale every day in the US... and frozen steaks are no longer fresh meat... it's very dumb to fill a freezer with tender beef steak... those pinheads would be smarter to use a roll of twenty dollar bills to wipe their butt. About a month ago we had a day and a half power outage in this area... was a windstorm and lots of downed trees broke utility wires. There were several crew outside with chainsaws clearing trees... by the next day power was back. We seriously considered getting a whole house generator. We checked into the costs for equipment and installation, becomes involved with 3 different sets of trades people; electrician, propane company for special plumbing, and moving company to set it up, that Generac thingie weighs about 600 pounds and they just drop it off at the foot of your driveway. By the next day we changed our minds about the generator. We cook with gas, and it's no biggie to have no TV and PC for a couple days. We have LED lanterns and flashlights, plenty of batteries, so we had plenty of lighting. A large generator requires monthly maintenance, another expense. During winter months we really don't need refrigeration. If an outage is during warm weather we can live without AC for a few days. My wife came up with the generator idea but when she added all the costs she changed her mind. Since we're on a well we'd have no water for some time, but she drinks bottled and seltza, I drink bottled and Sprite. I told her to save the plastic gallon jugs from all the milk she drinks, we can fill them with water and store them in the basement, only need about a half gallon to flush a toilet, and don't really need to flush each time you pee. During warmer weather we have more water than we can ever use flowing in the creek, easy to dip out with a five gallon plastic bucket... there are fish, frogs, and other critters living in the creek, I'm sure if boiled it's drinkable. The $14,000 generator idea is forgotten history... we've lived here twenty years and this was only the second time we've had a power outage... a generator would be as dumb as a clay tile roof. |

If that was true, they wouldn't hesitate to say that. I think they're solidified beetle farts. A very natural flavor. |

> Never mayo on an Italian sub for me. Only oil and vinegar. I use both. Mayo on both sides of the split roll, then Italian salad dressing on the onions and tomatoes. The italian dressing has both oil and vinegar but also the italian seasoning. No big deal though. We both like what we like. I only ate 1/3 yesterday. Planned to have the rest in the evening but didn't so....that will be lunch for today along with some salty Lay's potato chips. Maybe my last bowl of chicken noodle soup too. |
