Perhaps not the whole world, but I’m many/most countries, the larger structures, like government and business, absolutely are anti-intellectual. Nice to have an academic friend group, but that doesn’t change the fact that capitalism makes education less accessible in order to rely on an undereducated workforce, and then politicians push it even further for the sake of easy control.
I use a chamois cloth, seems to pick up oil/smudges even better that microfiber and need less washing. Also super easy to wash when it does need it. I basically just cut a dollar bill sized section off a natural off-brand sham-wow and it works better than anything else I’ve used
Yeah that seems bad lol. I feel like there has to be an option in between $200(creami) and $7000(pacojet) that can avoid chunks of plastic though
Why? Not challenging, just wondering what the pacojet does that other machines can’t
True if sealed, I meant the type of kool-ade you mix yourself, which gets gross after not very long. With this wrapped in paper, I’m doubting it’s air tight.
Master vitners and precise quality control, of course
A product intended to be sold that way. Steak and slim jims are both beef (in theory), but I wouldn’t recommend storing them the same way…
I’m far from guaranteeing that the popsicle from the picture would make you sick, I’m just saying I wouldn’t trust it with no telling how long it sat around melted before refreezing, and almost definitely not something processed for that type of storage.
No. Candy is heated to extremely high temperatures while processing and has a low water content, which are very important for its sterilization and entirely different from something like this. And candy still goes bad if you wait long enough… Candy is more equivalent to something like fruit preserves/jelly, which use heat and sugar to sterilize and preserve, yet which still have to be refrigerated to maximize shelf-life/minimize contamination. So you’re right that sugar can be used to preserve, but only by following a very different process.
Being wrapped in plastic has absolutely no effect on it. The bacteria likely to colonize are already in there, but keeping it frozen keeps them from multiplying, unless it melts. And many such colonies (botulism, for example) thrive in hypoxic environments, so being wrapped can actually make it worse. And corn syrup or any other substitute is just as bad as sugar.
So you’d drink weeks-old kool-ade if it hadn’t been refrigerated? Water and sugar is an ideal breeding ground and food source for a vast number of different bacteria.
That’s the minesweeper generation
No way, never. That’s just not who I am.
A “little bit” doesn’t begin to cover it…
I think he probably meant laserdiscs
Didn’t assume, I explicitly said “any other religion or belief,” and used the example of Christians based on overwhelming statistical prevalence in Ireland, where this photo was taken. Nice try to deflect, though.
So can we use any quote from any Christian person (hundreds of years ago or today) to accurately sum up the beliefs and nature of all Christians? Or of any religion/belief? If so, I gotta tell you, Christianity isn’t gonna come out looking so hot once we break out the quote books…
Source?
Nah, if that were true you’d see lots of moldy spots. After all, it’d be spoiled.
