More really great nuanced content for this discussion...

(also explains why Tuscan steak is now my favorite cooking method for steaks)


My only contention with the information presented is @ the 8:15 mark when discussing "uncured" salami and such. This is false if celery juice is used. Only true when "eco-cure" which uses plant polyphenols.....which is not explained.

I never thought I'd get out of my 20's. Every year after that I consider as bonus time, and I'm in my 60's now. I eat what I like but do so in moderation. I've lived a very active life and my body is screaming at me every day. I've lived a good life and if the good Lord calls me up tomorrow I am ready.

So, no, I am not worried about BBQ or smoking meats in the least. As has been said a few times, none of us will get out of this world alive.

I'll agree with this... But want to add...

"Not that I'm in a hurry to go.... But kinda glad I don't have far to go so I don't have to witness the future...

Not in a hurry either, but Amen to that! I can't imagine being a youngster growing in this day and age and what the future holds for them.

HI! A good buddy of mine got cancer and fought it for over a year, his Docs said surprised he was still here!? He fought it! Did Some travel before his death. He had a Nice cross on the back his Vendor truck , long before his illness. He passed before Covid and told me a few things?
Most of it was RIGHT ON!
COVID: World sickness.
World weather: cause unusual destructive weather ,which still seems to be increasing .
There will be Multi wars among the globe.

Guess not?

Short list off the top of my head: Sevin, Malathion, Dursban, Talstar, Cygon, Horticultural oil, Avid, Hexygon ........... and a lot of others.
You had the safer stuff in my list of pesticides, Doug.
The worst we handle is the fungicides that go on the sugar beets to control leaf spot Cercospera. Re entry is anywhere from 1-2 days. Most pesticides are after the spray has dried, except Round Up has gone to 4 hours thanks to litigation.

I'm not sure the point you are trying to make at this round of discussion.

I sprayed a lot of fungicides as well. Benlate and daconil are 2 right off the top of my head. I'm sure there were others. Dang wonder I don't have more health issues with the amounts of chemicals I sprayed over the years. I had a driver a lot of days while spraying the tree lined roads on horse farms. I just sat on the side of the spray rig and sprayed while he drove. 3~4 thousand gallons in a day wasn't uncommon.

Your replies are questionable... as in not knowing exactly what you mean. As has been noted by others in some of your replies. Making statements, asking questions, having doubts all in the same statements.

Who are you referring to that died of cancer? No one has mentioned anything pertaining to a death of anyone in this thread.
This is a very confusing post.
