Chicken Inspection at a Chicken Plant

Tina @trbr22 (79) • United States 2 Mar

I can tell you a little bit about chicken that may make you never want to eat it again. The chicken you buy is 6 weeks old. No matter the size, it is 6 weeks old. That's as old as they are allowed to be before slaughter. Then...

Remember Sunday TV Viewing?

celticeagle @celticeagle (172553) • Boise, Idaho 2 Mar

I remember when I was a child I looked forward to Sundays and Disney. The World of Disney. Sometimes it would be a movie and other times it would the story of animals in their natural habitat. It always amazed me how they filmed...

Would you classify salt as culinary essential or overused additive?

Anish Asokan @RevivedWarrior (3758) • India 20 Feb

Salt has been part of our cuisines for centuries by enhancing flavours and preserving food. Many cooks still consider it as essential seasoning as it brings natural taste to ingredients and balances flavours. In most dishes,...

@n.J Adding a moderate amount of salt can make a dish savory. Too much sodium is bad for the kidneys.

Is immediate fix better or should repairs be delayed for better outcomes?

Anish Asokan @RevivedWarrior (3758) • India 22 Feb

I have a friend who ensures that anything is damaged, he would have it fixed at earliest. He does not rest till the broken item is back to normal or replaced. One of my neighbours on the other hand has been quite the opposite, he...

Chayote Squash

Marie @Tampa_girl7 (52076) • United States 22 Feb

Yesterday while I was in the produce section I saw these squash. I had never seen these before and was clueless as to what they were. They look like they have a mouth and this through me off a bit. My son loves to try...

@n.J One of my favorite vegetables. When I was a kid I detested veggies. But one day I caught typhoid fever, a dish with chayote and ground pork was served at the hospital where I was confined and it was delish. Since then, my mom would prepare this dish once in a...

much2say @much2say (57337) • Los Angeles, California 3 Feb

My mom and I take a tai chi (Chinese form of exercise) class for seniors. I would think that adults who take an exercise class do so because they actually want to workout their bodies. There is Karl - an older man we met who...

@n.J I was studious but talkative. I know other students were more talkative than I was but they were not scolded. Until now, I can still vividly remember some rude remarks I got from my former teachers.

Does making the bed matter?

Fleur @Fleura (31261) • United Kingdom 21 Feb

I get up in the morning and fold the covers down to air the bed - one of those old-fashioned pieces of wisdom that turns out to be backed up by modern science. Making the bed – i.e. putting the covers back in place right away –...

@n.J It is scientifically backed that making the bed every morning benefits one's mental health. Since childhood, I always make the bed every morning and want my daughter to develop this routine.

A cool clothing hack

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (42772) • United States 22 Feb

Ladies, you know those ribbons that are attached to the shoulder of tops or blouses sometimes? They're to hang the top on a hanger so it won't poke out the material in things that are jersey or cotton. But I always hated when the...

I should open an urgent care clinic

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (42772) • United States 22 Feb

I tell you what, bud, I could operate one better than the one in our town. We were so excited last year to get an urgent/quick care in the closest town, ten miles from us. But whoever owns it has no clue how to run it. A while...

@n.J What's the point of "urgent care" if patients need to book an appointment? It doesn't make sense.

Are you more frugal now than you used to be?

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (41649) 22 Feb
