  • Traditional home cooked soda? You mean like the Native Americans did with pine needles before the settlers showed up?

    Spam is just jellied mince, which is also something people have been making at home for centuries. If you look at the ingredients list, it’s actually quite short and nothing unusual. I even have sodium nitrate in my spice cabinet at home for food preservation use.

    Candy is mostly just cooked sugar, it goes through different textures at different temperatures. Arguments could be made for the flavor extracts, but I’ve made my own flavor extracts before with regular ol’ everclear.




  • Assuming a typical family of four, 2k a month for marketplace insurance is actually pretty cheap. My partner just got his tax documents, and between him and his employer, they spent 10k last year to insure a single adult. I’ve got a ton of health problems, and we’ve talked about adding me to his plan, but that’s an extra $500 a month.
