It is only a day or two under ripe, with cracks that indicate inconsistent watering. As a tomato grower, I can say that this is almost certainly homegrown. If he'd waited another day to ripen on the plant, it might have been damaged by squirrels. --Bryan |

Most people are smart enough to not use a stovetop method for long if they are even *remotely* interested in cost won't use dried beans (other than lentils) there. They test it or randomly make them. It's easy to *start* with stovetop though and no slam if so. My own interests lay more in not wasting energy resources. Even today, your average crockpot cost per *day* (24 hours) is 25cents but your stove top is 15cents per hour (gas, calculated with my local rates). That works out as $3.60 for the stove at 24hrs vs 25cents..... Sheldon may be looking at dried volume and wet volume and 'thinking' he gets more? |

No Sheldon, they STILL aren't cheaper in volume than volume dried. You were on smaller ships so learned smaller cooking and cheats of canned beans. You didnt have *space* to cook dried beans while doing other stuff so got canned in your stores then. It's ok that you find cans work today when just feeding 2, but you might need to know that a 16oz can has (on average) 3oz of dried bean equal. |

He lives in the largest city in the state surrounded by others who are 3-5th largest. Until Covid-19, all out main chain stores were 24/7. |

Surely you've been around people who have eaten strong raw onions and you want to get as far away from them as possible. |

Carol, wake up! Gary shops at the crack of dawn, always has, pandemic or not. He's always bitched because the banks are not open at the crack of dawn. He's always bitched because all stores are not open at 6:00 a.m. whether it's a grocery store or not. And him living in the largest city in the state has nothing to do with it. I live in the largest city in my state and stores have always been open 24/7 until Covid-19 but I don't gripe because I'm not being accommodated. |

Sterilized is different from sanitized. Food residue and people's use of things can spread bacteria so you get rid of as much as possible before putting a half dozen forks in the tray with the rest. Or the plate you had the raw chicken on. |

It must have been in 1977. We ate at a place by the University and talked about the movie. The owner of the place brought out a plate of nachos.

Here's one of my favorite American movies. The first time I saw it was when I was a kid. It blew my mind.

You can start a pesto factory. The rest has plenty of greenery but does it have the fruits? If you have lots of greens and little fruit you may need phosphorous in the soil. You can get free soil tests at agriculture schools and farm bureau and the like. |
