abdalla - Indeed, brother. :up:

It fills me with pride to see that blue flag, even after all the crazy shit we've been through. We never lost our sovereignty.


Hepburn - Were you ever here in town?

Since I was there anyway, couldn't leave behind the mangoes & the papayas, not to mention the watermelon & pineapple.

Best time to buy tropical fruits is probably between now through September. Don't have to settle for shitty high carb, high sodium snacks that leave you constipated & grouchy as a fuck.

don't you live alone, how can you eat all that food by yourself, don't the eggs expire in less than a week ? you either eat a lot of expired food or your throw away a hell of lot food. :|

Eggs usually have a shelf life of around a month, even the organic ones. Same thing with the milk. The fruits I usually slice & put in ziplock bags, throw in the freezer. Veggies I dice & either bake or cook, put them in microwavable containers. With time, I've worked out a process that helps me not let food rot, I freeze my bread, bagels, pita bread, herbs like mint & curry leaves, cilantro, etc. I never put tomatoes, broccoli, onion, garlic, etc in the fridge. Same thing with most of the other produce, it helps it stay fresh longer. Mistake most people make is put everything in their refrigerators, bad move. I only eat out lunch and eat everything else at home or on-the-go. It took me ages, but I've finally got it down to mathematics. :D

Someday you will, inshallah! It takes aging and a health scare usually to wake you up, in my case horrible acid reflux & seeing sick people everyday.


Alpha - Yeah. I bought my current milk on 4/20 & won't expire until 5/17. I usually go for the ones with longer shelf-life just in case, but usually run out before the date. I use milk a lot!

I've never seen milk last a month. I think they're mostly good for 2.5 - 3 weeks. Would it being organic make a difference? Have you ever had raw milk?
