So, here’s the topic of the evening.

Expiration dates on canned goods. If it says “Sell by” or “Eat by” 1/24/26, does it drop dead on 1/25? I tend to think you got about a five yr grace period possibly. Depending on the food. As long as the cans haven’t been subjected to high heat, like say a garage.

Just went and checked and sure enough, my rotation bin has cans of beans and lentils with a Sell By date of 2020-22.

Any good insight? Resident Nurses? Resident Scientists? Shithouse scientists like myself? 🤣

****Edit****

So I dug a tad, and my hunch was basically right (5 yr window food dependent). Food Bank of the Rockies. Basically something like beans should be good indefinitely if stored properly.

I read a thingie somewhere kinda recently that said not to buy canned goods with dents, especially near the lids/tops-n-bottoms. They could leak and spoil. Otherwise, I have always been of the impression that canned goods are good very far past the "expiration" dates, which are really "sell by" dates to chump you into tossing them and buying new when they "expire." Everything is about treating the consumer like s/he's a moron and tookening her/his money.
 
Part one of the day is in the books.

We met Levi the Scrapper and moved an old refrigerator, an old stove and a shit ton of other old metal stuff for him to scrap.

We almost got cleaned out of Firewood again so I refilled. Met a lovely local lady and helped her stack firewood in her car. Showed her I’m the inside of themill building. (Don’t get any ideas! Mrs wonderer was w me and she just wanted to see the inside of the mill. )

Then I refilled the wood stand.

I was wearing long underwear under everything and moving the whole time so I felt pretty warm.

Now it’s 14 and real feel is 6.

Off to do a few more chores before just relaxing.

Fun story - college friend and his younger brother when they were @ 8 and11 years old.
Older brother comes home from school and sees his younger brother in the kitchen standing in front of the microwave.
OB: What are you cooking?
YB: An egg
OB: What now?
YB: I want to see what happens when you put an egg in the microwave.
OB: Scrambled or???
YB: No - the whole thing
With that, the younger brother opens the microwave door and bends over to peer inside. Takes out the egg with a pot holder and sets it on the counter.
The older brother grabs him around the waist and pulls them both under the kitchen table.
Not two seconds later, the whole thing explodes!
As my friend explained - it was whistling... like that sound effect they use in movies for artillery shells.
Good thing we ducked, too! That egg was like lava! It got everywhere too - walls, ceiling, floor, cabinets.
Ten years later, when our mom sold the house, there was still yellow egg yolk lacquered to the cabinets.

It may help if you will all adopt Scots terminology.... we say "sticks". That way I will know you are referring to something you will put in a fireplace rather than....

Oh never mind I am embarrassing myself now! Goes back to his cup of pissy tea mumbling to himself....

The pissy tea is slowly dissolving your brain.


Bestest wishes to the injured poodle that he's back in the fold, full steam before we know it.
 
Shortbread you say:

INGREDIENTS (sorry it’s metric)
METRIC (UK) | CUPS (US)

INSTRUCTIONS
  • Preheat your oven to 180°c (160°c for a fan assisted oven) or Gas Mark 3 and grease a couple of baking trays with a little butter.
  • Cream together the butter & sugar in a large bowl until it becomes light & fluffy.
  • Sift in your flour & cornflour and mix to form a stiff dough. Tip the dough onto a floured worktop and gently knead until smooth.
  • Roll your dough to around 1cm thick and cut into your desired shapes. Transfer each shortbread to your pre-greased baking trays and prick each one with a fork on top.
  • Bake in your pre-heated oven for around 15-20 minutes until the edges of the shortbread are golden.
  • Remove from the oven and sprinkle a little sugar over each shortbread. Leave to cool on their tray for around 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Pennsylvania always was an old whore.


In other news, Wat bought some better-than-average stuff while shooping for this fiasco. Bread pickings were slim, so there was mostly Pepperidge Farms stuff remaining. Got a loaf of sandwich stuff and some "sandwich rolls" - basically hamburger buns. Them damn things good yo. Just whipped up a couple of fried egg sammiches and it's some damn good eatin'. May have to continue doing this.
