The secret is Jersey greensand.

Doesn't cause cancer, does it? (asking for a friend from Brooklyn).

Who knows?

If you look on the labels for stuff, according to the state of California, just about everything causes cancer.

If anything, one would think having most of the minerals that have been depleted from most soil would improve your general health.

For many years, farmers and gardeners have been fertilizing the soil the soil with just NPK, and manure, adding no minerals, maybe just lime for Ph.

Adding rock dust and/or Jersey Greensand supplies the minerals.

Tomatoes, beets and carrots taste sweeter with the added minerals.

Maybe studies need to be done to see if this has anything to do with cancer.

If the studies are done in CA, no doubt there will be a connection found.

I'll stick with the rock dust and Jersey greensand no matter what.

As Jocelyn Elders said (and the one and only thing I agreed with from the Clinton administration), we're all going to die of something sometime anyhow.

Yup. Northern NJ is still largely Italian American and breakfast sandwiches made with peppers, tomatoes,and cheese are very common.

The one thing I don’t like about Rutt’s Hutt is their awful beer selection. Bud, Coors Light, Miller bleeeecch...

I’ve actually never had one there; I see people drinking it from these small cups, but I’m there for the dogs.

That selection doesn’t tempt me, either.

I managed a Callahan’s (the one in Bergenfield) when they briefly decided to franchise their brand. Had to train at the original in Fort Lee. Serving at lunchtime was truly baptism by fire. Imagine 8 or so employees inside a squared off horseshoe about 20 by 20 taking orders being screamed out by a mob of people completely swarming that horseshoe, having to do all the totaling up in your head and sharing a single register with those other 7 employees - for about 2 hours straight! It was madness. It was fun! It was actually some of the best training I can remember getting back when I was 22 or so.

It was FAST food, too. Those dogs, fries, burgers, sausage and pepper sandwiches came out of that kitchen in hurry. People don’t get that kind of service anymore.
