Funny. I understand that’s similarly the purpose of aquavit when dining in Scandinavia on delicacies that persist mostly as dares.
I wonder if there are any probiotic cultures in it that might be of any value today?

I’m pretty sure Islam is antibiotic in the macro sense, and the muzzie thugs will burn down the house of anyone suspected of having aquavit.

Not if we send them back where they came from so they can go back to burning down each other’s houses.

Would unhomoginzed and unpasteurized butter have DNA from the cows in it?

Good idea, pretty sure it might... that’s a pretty old sample though... the carbon ratios (12/13) are what is used to ballpark whether it’s meat or milk.

Is it something like Vegemite?
If this stuff is edible it may be the ultimate survival food. Anything that lasts for 2000 years must be good stuff.

The reason I’m wondering is that there’s a fair sized group of farmers and ranchers that are interested in heritage livestock.

Akavit- caraway flavored paint thinner. Burns with a lovely blue flame, though.

"Bog butter?"
To: Rurudyne
I can’t believe it’s not Bog ButterThat's hilarious, I'd forgotten those old TV commercials.
Can't say as I've ever heard of bog butter before today, but I never fail to learn something clicking on a Sunken Civ thread.
To: SunkenCiv
you may be onto something there... she does look soft and creamy

To: ExcursionGuy84
Let’s not tell him about the bogs and bog butter!
Years ago someone made the mistake of telling Chuck Norris about the Sahara forest.
