That’s why Koreans use clay pots for kim-chi?
extremely painful moochelle flatulence
If it was only 170 years, then color me unimpressed, but 190 years? That's saying something!
:-P
No, not quite, they did the test in 1939, so it was only 115 years.
Only 115 years? How lame...
“Ham and MFer’s fer trade and I keep the peaches and pound cake !”
I must have been the only GI who liked ham and mofos
That’s why I’m looking into dehydrating....storage space.
I’ve canned (jars) of fruits, veggies and meats and they do tend to take up a lot of space. I like the idea of several pounds of, say tomatoes, transferring into a pint jar - as chopped/slices or as powder (for sauce/paste).
I recently decided to replace my long term tomato sauce needs with powdered tomatoes. My wife and I prep for the our children and grandchildren in mind and have a tough time rotating all the tomato sauce requirements.
I dehydrate everything out of our garden that isn’t used. I store it all in zip lock bags and freeze it. Uses very little space and tastes totally fresh.
>>I’ve had sauerkraut eat its way out. <<
Next time feed it something that will keep it calm...
Yep, she is excellent on dehydrating...
Do pay close attention to her double bagging suggestion... I have even put paper towels in dehydrated food... Hey, have the towels to use later after they kept the sharp edges from puncturing the bag and the mylar bag...
Plus, if you have tomato powder, you can make it as thin or thick as you want. I like to take a couple of small flat bread sandwich rounds, and put tomato sauce with pizza seasoning on it and loads of veggies and cheese for a quick toaster oven pizza for lunch.
Trouble is you only need a tiny bit of sauce out of the cans you can buy. With the powder, you wouldn’t have that problem, and also don’t have to worry about the acid eating through the can.
The bottom of the Missouri. River probably doesn’t change temperature by 5 degrees in ten years. That is very important to long term storage of food and ammo.
Oh I just liked peaches and pound cake more , ham and lima’s were ok....cheese spread and John Wayne bars clocked and cocked the gastrointestinal process etc ...all good !!!
..... Hungry “is” as ya well know....stay safe troop !
those little samples packs of mayo you can get at almost any deli aren’t refrigerated, and my Cousin still uses the ones she picked up 2 years ago.
Might be worth looking into.
They aren’t packaging foods as well as they used to. Some cans now have pull off tops like coke cans. Some are as thin as coke cans. Some are paper with little bits of tape securing the opening. Some come in plastic tubs with foil tops and others in foil bags which can easily be punctured or come unglued. I got some foil bagged tuna for free or I wouldn’t have brought it home. It isn’t going into the pantry because I don’t trust something punching a hole in it. Despite rotation for expiration dates, this is going to be eaten first.
I’ve had Velveeta go bad before the expiration date. Now, it goes straight from the grocery store to the freezer.
Check out imstillworkin’s youtubes. She explains the details of dehydrating and dehydrating and gives the why and why not through her tests.
