looooong ago. which is a pity, because the biomass from cane is a *much* better source of energy than corn ever will be, plus real sugar is not nearly the heath crisis that HFCS is (HFCS shuts off the chemical receptors in your brain that let you know you've had enough to eat. if you eat a lot of HFCS, you always feel hungry, so overeat... usually junk with more HFCS) lee

Food science? Cool. :-)

I do clinical work. Hospital lab.

What are the jobs like in your field?

Other than the current pay rate, I'm getting bored after 20 years.

After aquavit shots (Note Plural) or glog.

I've not had it cause I can't find it. A friend was over in Sweden doing work stuff when after work the host offered some. My friend being Vietnamese was put off by the can being opened under pressure release. However he ate it to the amazement of his hosts. His comment to me was very much like fish sauce.

I'm very brave when it comes to new foods, but there are just some things I have to draw the line at.

Sorry hon'!

But believe it or not, there are worse things that are considered "food" in some cultures! ;-D

I think that, so far, this one has to be the worst:

do NOT NOT NOT click on that link unless you have a VERY strong stomach!!!

Sure made my top 10 ! Still thinking about telling some folks to check it out if in the area. Might be good and I wonder how long folks have done such a thing. We were having dinner a few years back when my kids noticed there were worms on or in our broccoli . I said yes and proceeded to eat it with gusto.

Things we see can be worrisome but the stuff we can't set bother's me. E-Coli comes to mind.

Looked about for this Gem.

Eukkkch.

Whatever floats your boat babe. If you want maggots drilling thru your intestines...

Cheese is interesting stuff but I refuse to risk dying for it.

Nah - the egg was worse. My grandfather taught me to eat raw eggs and truly disgusting smelling cheeses. I've eaten suckling pig. I've even tried ducks feet but I don't think I could handle the egg.

Omelet expounded:

My oh my, omnivores are adventurous, aren't they?

I can only speak to wineries but ice cream producers have labs too. The job really depends on the winery size. Small wineries pay the least but usually fairly lax working conditions that allow you to do things other than in the lab. Large wineries have large labs and bureaucracies, which means that you are payed well but micro-managed to death.

I've worked the harvest for the last five years. That's 4-5 months of work (two of which are overtime intensive). In Jan. I draw my unemployment and do some substitute teaching (secondary physical science credential). Otherwise I plan the garden and do a lot of cooking. I'm sure once I get too comfortable a permanent job will come along.

Good gods! And I thought I was bad enjoying pressure cooked poultry feet and calves feet, and raw eggs. :-) Not to mention the Barbacoa (mexican spiced shredded cow face, slow cooked) with cheese breakfast taco I get every Saturday morning from Los Gallos in New Braunfels for both me and dad. ;-d

Never had suckling pig. I presume that was roasted?

Sorry so long for the reply. It's been a rough week.

Mom loved Limburger. I'd never and still won't go near that stuff!!!

ROFL! Some are, some aren't. ;-)

As much as I like chicken feet, I DO draw the line at some things!!!

Heh! Before you talk "micro-management" try health care which is managed to death (literally sometimes) on several levels. It's almost like a chess game sometimes.

Sorry dear, but that sounds like fun. :-)

Once the morgage is paid off in 4 years.

If you don't mind, could you e-mail me more details?

Please?

That actually sounds interesting. I'm getting bored with Hospital politics.

Come on - anything cooked in pressure cooker is good.

Hmm - maybe....

And it was delicious! So dang tender!

Me too! Want to swap kid woes off list?

My FIL liked that....

Cheryl

Limburger.......MMMMMMMMMmmmmm good! :-)

We've done lots of chicken feet......good too. With noodles. And smashed taters.

My wifes' Grandpa ate something though that we didn't care much for. He ate boiled pig ears. Too danged gristly for us.

Stinky Charlie

Unless you over-time it!

The collagen content of it has some very good health benefits. That's also the major plus for calves foot jelly.

I've heard that it's exceptional

I'm game! I work in a Hospital lab. With the cooler weather hitting, it's getting to be our "busy season".
