  • I like this idea. Although I think there are times throughout the week when someone might want to post a question on a Thursday but can’t because it’s not the correct day of the week. And make them megathreads so they can be referenced throughout the week.

    I think themed days for techniques, methods and practices of cooking would be fun. How about something like Ferment Friday or meal prep Sunday (I know it’s stealing from Reddit but eff Reddit, Spez or whatever the case may be)


  • It’s been going on since the founding fathers signed the eclaration eclaration of independence. They were all landowners and some even had slaves. The Constitution was written not for equality or the redistribution of wealth but for the rich, landowners to keep it and keep everyone else away from it.

    It’s become more obvious now as wealth has grown so incremently with the top 3% having more than some countries and are now at the point of untouchable, able to control so much of what’s happening should be no surprise.

    Europe did it when first colonialized the New World, claiming Manifest Destiny taking land, wiping out civilizations of people all under the name of god.

    It’s generational with the belief to not trust the government. They’re trying to take it from you.

    While one side tells you they’re trying to take it from you, the other side is telling you, they’re trying to take it from you.

    The problem is, they are.









  • I wish I could say that good judgement will eventually win out. The only way that to happen is if Tuberville is out of the picture. For him it’s not about his beliefs. He doesn’t have any. It’s all about the attention he’s getting and the power he’s wielding.

    He’s a very small human. Don’t forget he was a football coach and just about every football coach has the old Vince Lombardi mantra drilled in their heads, “Winning isn’t everything. It’s the only thing”. It’s all about winning. Decency doesn’t matter.









  • I have family deep in Appalachia where education isn’t much of a priority there, most drop out to help farming, coal mining and helping the family whatever way they can.

    One man I knew who dropped out at an early age was probably the best mechanic I’ve ever seen. He could fix just about anything, cars, appliances, you name it.

    One instance I recall was that there was a boy with either downs or on the autism spectrum. Back then there was no distinction but I digress. This boy had an old, beat up and very cheap 8 track player that he absolutely loved and couldn’t ever part with it. The mechanic was able to keep it working for years and years.





  • It depends on want to pursue. Currently I’m thinking about fermenting yellow fatalliis and lemons and creating some sort of marmalade with saffron.

    Another idea I have is bacon jam with habaneros (habaneroes?) and fermented cherries.

    A little tip; I know it might go against the grain of everything you’ve heard about fermented foods and probiotics but when you’re ready to bottle it, heat it to a very slow simmer for only a couple minutes. Your hot sauce will have a more nuanced, well balanced flavor. Another benefit is that you are essentially pasteurizing your sauce making it shelf stable. There are plenty of other ways to get those probiotics and considering how much hot sauce you’re putting on food it’s only a small amount
