Re: How best to ripen avocado

The bowl was sweating, so I took off the plastic. Started pouring in the salt I bought, and there are little specs in the salt. I'm really paranoid about bugs after my recent infestation. Any chance these are sale bugs?

Re: How best to ripen avocado

I took the avocado / banana out of the plastic bag. It was getting damp inside (though not as damp as it had been when I tried without a silica pack. I can try doing the bowl with salt... I guess salt would also kill any bacteria / be clean/reusable. So maybe a salt-bed in a bowl is a good idea. Moi...

Trick for dry hands and washing dishes.

So I had been getting really dry hands, to the point they were bleeding on the knuckles, and I couldn't bend my fingers. Hand cream was a problem because once you cream your hands... you can't touch anything without getting it slimy/gross. I realized if I put cream / oil on my hands, then put on lat...

Re: How best to ripen avocado

I've been thinking about using paper-towel, actually. Maybe a newspaper (would the ink not be a problem?) Part of me is still worried about weevils, although I know they don't eat fruit, and I'm 99% sure they're gone, the traumatic experience moving in has made me paranoid. I've got an avocado with ...

Re: How many raw eggs are too many (not for acne)

So do you think this is a matter of too much cholesterol? I'd been assuming it was my body telling me I'd had too much bacteria.

So I'm thinking 5 in the morning and 5 in the evening. I'm trying to gain weight, and eggs (even the most expensive brand) are cheap here).

How best to ripen avocado

My tried and true method has always been avocado in a paper page with bananas (and maybe some other fruit I want to ripen). It works really well. However, where I'm currently living, paper bags actually don't exist. People at the shop look at my like I've got 2 heads... I've read some other ways, an...

Re: How many raw eggs are too many (not for acne)

I notice after 5, I don't feel like eating any more. So then do you suggest stopping at 5?

Re: Specific gut bacterial strains.

So... my skin problems have cleared 98%. I think it's due to the probiotic (which I'm soon to run out of and won't be able to buy refills!!), but I'll list everything I've been doing (sorry, pretty non-wai). probiotic 8 raw eggyolks Omega 3 capsule (actually, they smell rancid... I should probably c...

How many raw eggs are too many (not for acne)

Hi, So I'm not taking the diet for acne (and am very.... not strict, though I still believe the principals). My question, I'd like to take 12 eggyolks a day, in order to gain weight, and have energy while working (I can work with juice etc.) Is that overdoing it? Will that number of eggyolks cause h...

Re: Specific gut bacterial strains.

Right; so these bacteria would only be an issue for someone 'supplementing' bacteria. OTOH, supplementing sometimes makes sense (if you're not getting something from your diet, or have some imbalance to correct). I've been taking this, https://newrootsherbal.com/product/id/1965 because it has Bifido...

Re: How to make cooked food junkies eat raw egg yolks

Recently updated my eggs a bit; when it's convenient, I'll actually remove the yolk completely from the white, to make sure the whites get totally cooked, when add the yolk in after the whites are finish. At this point you can either "sunny side up" without any uncooked whites, but raw yolk, or scra...

Specific gut bacterial strains.

I've been reading about gut bacteria, for general knowledge but also because I've read that it can be beneficial for psoriosis (Bifidobacterium infantis specifically is said to help with this). But I was surprised to read that some bacteria may contribute to histamine (over) production, and should b...

Re: Bacteria: The Final Frontier?

But is the bacteria in an orange really significant? Will it even survive the stomach acid? I've read that even the bacteria in yogurt won't survive the stomach acid (with the exception of Activia, which adds an extra non-yogurt probiotic). And I'm guessing the kind of bacteria will matter more than...

Re: How to make cooked food junkies eat raw egg yolks

My trick has been cooking eggs for people. I fry it in a pan with olive oil, on the lowest temp, and keep the yolks unbroken (I'll even cut around the yolks, and 'flip' the whites, to make sure the whites cook completely, though slowly). Once the whites have gone completely white (a bit tricky to do...

Re: Shed some ideas for my home remodeling!!!

What about the new Tesla solar panels? They're supposed to be cheaper than regular panels, and can help power you house.

Any other advice I give will only have to do with acoustics (since I'm a sound guy).
