• 160 Kosher wine

    From MICHAEL LOO@1:123/140 to RUTH HANSCHKA on Friday, March 29, 2019 12:13:44
    wines were served. Hamentashen in plenty, and lots of
    noisemakers,
    but no wine.
    Well, your loss.
    Not particularly.

    Oh, your loss.

    Boone's Farm for folks with taste buds.
    I wouldn't go so far as that, and then
    there's the question of those hypothetical
    taste buds.
    This is the same crew drinking "hard seltzer water" so....

    Questioning the taste buds to an even
    greater degree.

    That's the one circumstance where a Keurig machine
    is justifiable - when the user is addled enough to
    otherwise risk burning down the kitchen.
    Or the other available equipment lends itself to disasters.
    Not sure about the relevancy of the other
    available equipment.
    If the other appliance is a stove and a frying pan, it could be a
    problem.

    That's fundamental enough to put them
    directly into nursing, do not pass assisted
    living, do not collect $200.

    Apparently the manufacture involves using the
    fish's own digestive enzymes in the curing, which
    strikes me weird, sort of like seething the kid
    in its own milk.
    It's Kosher. Weird, but Kosher.
    Sort of like. Tofu in soy sauce (perhaps
    my favorite vegetarian dish not involving
    pork or eggplant) is similar. Especially if
    cooked in soybean oil.
    That sounds more like food than the herring.

    I agree, but you'd be surprised by how many
    people are really averse to bean curd.

    protect the sensibilities of their more observant
    brethren.
    I've seen that before. Most of my Christian friends tend to go the other direction.
    Funny that. We've both witnessed the
    phenomenon, though.
    It's generally one or the other, or sometimes both at once.

    Sometimes doctrinal nonidentical closeness
    engenders the worst behaviors.

    For rice and corn syrup at least. Not so much the pork
    stroganoff.
    Kitniyot and trayf are completely different
    ideas, based on completely different principles.
    Precisely.
    I can sort of see the origin of trayf, but
    kitniyot just struck me as paranoid.
    A lot of the later interpretations of the rules were, and for good
    reason. Your neighbors were Gentiles and none too friendly toward
    Jews as often as not.

    Though the sensible thing to do in those days
    would have been to refuse anything grown,
    processed, prepared, or offered by goyische
    hands - sort of like the rules that obtain
    today regarding Kosher wines. By the reasoning
    justifying the rules about kitniyot, one might
    worry about people sneaking shrimp powder or
    other filth into one's veggies.

    Whole Food Lentil & Quinoa Breakfast Patties
    Are these edible? If so it would be a first for quinoa.
    I can't tell you, having had limited
    experience in the subject.
    I do eat it occasionally, but it's not a preferred taste.

    There are those who claim quinoa to be
    delicious, though I suspect those people
    have spent time in prison.

    I go straight for the regular seltzer thanks. Cheaper and safer.

    If the other appliance is a stove and a frying pan, it could be a
    problem.

    Probably, but I've known some truly absent-minded folks who weren't
    senile and yes they would....

    They're weird, but then I'll eat anything not trying to climb off my

    It depends on the people involved too.

    Or just spitting into them.

    Or fried their mouths on some less legal substance. Or prescription
    meds. Those will do it too.
