- Comment on Using old innertubes to strengthen your current tube and tire 3 days ago:
I used to keep 2 dead inner tubes lining my mountain bike tires. But now I have a road bike and there is barely enough room for the tube needed much less an extra.
Years ago I switched from dead tubes to a tire liner. Again unsure if that would fit in my road bike tire.

Maryland had talked about making our illegal to collect any rainwater, be it from your roof or anywhere else. I no longer live there so I never kept up with it.

They contain 1 ingredient, soybeans. I imagine they are made into a paste, extruded, and dried.

- Comment on What to do with a surplus of fresh veggies? 2 months ago:
I love when I get a lot of onions and peppers. I grill them up then make a wrap with them, usually the grilled veggies, cheese, cyclospora free lettuce, and ranch dressing.
I have also done the veggies on a sub roll with cheese and soy curls for a cheese “steak”.
Same with the veggies, soy curls, in a tortilla for a fajita.
Carrots make a good carrot salad, raisins, and a mayo like sauce, I think it might actually be Cole slaw sauce.
My go to way to cook carrots is in a pan with a little veggie bouillon, some honey, maybe a dash of cayenne. Cook covered until almost fork tender, uncover cook and them until the bouillon is mostly gone and thickened, add a little butter to further thicken the liquid.
They can also be boiled/steamed and mashed with potatoes, or other root veggies. Diced browned onions added to mashed potatoes add a great depth of flavor too.
Depending how small the baby potatoes are, I cook mine in a pressure cooker with copious amounts of salt (only use potatoes with the peel fully intact or they absorb too much salt), they come out really tender, and are great served with some butter.
Most if not all of this can be frozen once cooked.
As for the cucumbers, there was a dude on TikTok that had some viral videos of some great cucumber salads. I think his name was Logan or something. The videos were so popular a lot of places were experiencing cucumber shortages.
I have recipes for most of suggestion’s and Will gladly share if anything interests you.
- Comment on Do you toss food once the date on the label has passed? Experts say that's often a waste 2 months ago:
In more progressive regions, food past the date is given to charity, who then know more about the meanings of the dates and the safety tolerances.
I volunteer at a food bank, and I can tell you
food past the date is given to charityis correct. Howeverwho then know more about the meanings of the dates and the safety tolerances.is wholly incorrect at our food bank. As long as there is no visible mold it is given out. If there is no way to inspect it, it is given out. - Comment on Do you toss food once the date on the label has passed?

Only on milk.
Milk is usually good for at least a week after the sell by date.
