Did you know??
That 40% of our corn crop winds up in gas tanks as ethanol and about 8 bushels of corn is only 22 gallons of fuel BUT is also enough to feed a person for a year. Not a huge proponent of an all-corn...

There's some debate on how to clean and store freshly laid eggs. Also, do they taste different? How long do they last? 🐔🐔

Udi I heard that eggs in the US get cleaned in such a way that the protective coating on the outside gets stripped off and that's why we have to refrigerate them. But, freshly laid ones, I think you...

MargaretG My brother, who is a farmer, keeps his eggs unrefrigerated and unwashed up to 2 week but that makes me nervous. I usually refrigerated them even unwashed as soon as I get them from the hen. More:...

sugardetoxme Such a good question!!!! I wish the books I've read turned into films, but Food Chains really sticks out in my mind

Can you explain the lifecycle of an onion?
Looking for some #kitchentips! I've just learned that onions don't last forever (I knew that, but this is still surprising). I was away from home for ~10 days, so my onions weren't given the usual ...
