I missed the cottage cheese dispute. This is one of the topics on which I am fanatical.

There is no such thing as spoilage! Lots of stuff you eat is “spoiled”: yogurt, buttermilk, sour cream, rocquefort cheese, sauerkraut, kim chee, beer, wine, and aged meat (they have to scrape the mold off it; it doesn’t just sit there quietly getting better and better).

I have lots more at my URL. The point to remember is: excessive cleanliness might very well kill you and your whole family!

I try to make my decisions by what Forrest Gump says, “Stupid is a stupid does.” But I’m still not sure if I am always smart or stupid. So take my advice at your own risk: “Uh, that’s all I have to say about that.”

Someone is comparing apples and oranges. Or a total sucker rip-off with a quaint custom dating back, at the very least, to the Egyptian Thoth calendar 5,000 years ago, give or take a few. Did you know there will be no leap year in AD 4,000, because our leap year system is inaccurate? Mark it in your organizers now.
