dented or otherwise damaged cans, what do you do?
This article in yesterday's paper caught my eye. Looks like mould to me. But. Forget the sensational headline for a minute and focus on the can. Notice how it's a little blackened around the bottom rim? I'm not sure it shows, but it looks like the can has been standing in wet conditions, the wrapper looks a little wrinkled too at top and bottom. Was it like this when it was bought? If yes, why buy it? If no, then how was it stored in the home environment? Use by date. Usually irrelevant, unless the can has been opened. We all know that once a can is opened the contents need to be used immediately, especially baby foods. She mentions somewhere in the story that the contents appeared "a bit runny". This happens when food is given to the baby directly from the can, (or jar) with saliva from the baby's mouth being transferred to the contents, which then begins to break down the molecular structure of the canned food. This isn't immedia...

It could apply to many places in the world, from Syria to Ukraine, and even the US. It's a sad truth.
ReplyDeleteThat's true, although those other places are at war with other countries. America seems to be at war with itself.
DeleteTragic.
ReplyDeletejabblog; very tragic, guns mean more than people? More than children?
DeleteI didn't see it, and don't know whether it makes me sadder or angrier.
ReplyDeleteElephant's Child; sad, angry and despairing.
Deletesame here. says a lot in just a few lines.
ReplyDeleteSusan kane; it's just so unbelieveably sad.
DeleteIt's just the sad truth.
ReplyDeleteMike; and it shouldn't be!
DeleteNo, I didn't see it. How awful.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe.
Dora; I'm not going to visit that blog again. It's too heartbreaking.
DeleteThere is so much pain on every side, i don't know where to start.
ReplyDeletemessymimi; where to start is a huge problem, since the gun lobby is so huge and it seems their guns and the freedom to use them are far more important than the children.
DeleteYes, small they are. I thought you refer to the last school-shooting in the USA. That is so common by now it does not make it to our news even. Read about it somewhere online.
ReplyDeleteSad and sick. The school I went to, and big Niece now... has turned into a drug-dealer place. Yes, pupils... as dealers.
Being old I can say I had a "good" childhood without such issues. Or I was protected in our little town, who knows (or wants to know).
Iris; yes the last school shooting but also ALL the other shootings that came before and will keep happening. Things were so much different when we were young and at school. When did it all go so wrong?
DeleteI do believe it´s ... the people´s way.
DeleteWe grew up as post-war-generation. Loads of problems, but thankfulness, too, for peace. Now... frustration everywhere? Bad/no jobs? Is that an explanation? I am not sure... Maybe dumbness, too. Or that people do not speak the language of the country they "went in"?
it is terribly sad.
ReplyDeleteJenn Jilks; and how can it be stopped?
DeleteThat is sick....I would stay away from those blogs also. After Nashville, where I live, going through a school shooting last month, it makes it even harder.
ReplyDeletePam; I am very glad I live in Australia. We have violent things happening here, but not on the same scale.
DeleteAmerica's obsession with guns is perverse. I've never understood it.
ReplyDeleteSteve Reed; perverse and getting worse and now they are changing other laws too, undermining the freedoms of women.
DeleteI didn't see it but how sad.
ReplyDeleteMary Kirkland; I cried so much!
