  I’d argue that’s the outcome or survivorship bias, where people focus on the one winner or that time a thing worked and ignoring all the other failures. E.g. people think investors all swim in money because they only see the warren buffets of the world, when in reality there’s thousands, millions of people who tried the almost exact same thing and lost some or all of their savings in bad investments.

  Ideally, if you can and know when you will use it, refrigerate them already before you open any jar, this reduces the time window when bacteria or molds can grow.

  I didn’t particularly like that episode because they didn’t do another control test and just called it a day

  Don’t do it bro, there’s so much food you haven’t tried yet.

  I mean, reporters, writers and editors gotta eat too. Journalism is already shit enough as it is, so I can understand that some outlets prefer a paywall over plastering their websites with ads or just downright selling out.
