We have a gas stove, and once I was making pancakes or something, and some parchment paper was next to the flame. I turned around, and the next thing I knew, it was on fire! I was pretty careful after that!

It's okay. I don't know if you have to delete it. He'll probably get on and read it and if he wants it deleted he'll tell you.

I'm not sure whether to be proud or ashamed of this, but about two-thirds of all that I eat goes through the microwave before it gets to me. :P

Haha, you really don't need to be just kidding. Besides the daily exercise I've finally been getting back into, I live a pretty unhealthy lifestyle–unhealthy food, sitting in an office all day, staring at a screen… Yeah, I'm gonna die before I'm 30, I'm sure. ;P JK

Do you have any idea how big a moose liver is?

Well, you asked, I weighed it today; 16 pound moose liver, and the heart was about 5 pounds.

I use my microwave too! Also, my mom told me that putting food in the microwave actually adds nutrients to the food. I'll have to ask her for more information, but she's kinda a health freak too. :)

Like I said I'll have to ask her some more questions, but she's researched, and researched, and done research on the research on this kinda stuff. :)

Okay my mom does not say saturated fats are really good for you. She says we shouldn't be scared of them; because they're not as bad as people say they are. She also doesn't say that sugars are really good for you either. In fact she says that besides the taste there is no redeeming value of sugar. I also realized that I misunderstood her on the microwave thing. She says it doesn't add nutrients but preserves them.

It preserves nutrients? Really? Last time I checked, any kind of cooking removes nutrients. Why should microwaves be an exception?

This should be moved over to the 'Animals We Have Butchered' thread.

sighs LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FTR, I usually don't use the microwave. And I'm in the "you shouldn't use it" camp :P

Is there a " Animals we have butchered " thread?

Besides the value of taste in sugar, it also has a high energy density, (the reason kids get hyper off of it), and sucrose (table sugar) is what your brain runs on, it can't use the fat's and other forms of energy, that the rest of the body uses, so when the body is low on stored pre-converted energy, it saves the sugars for the brain, and burns the fats. Your brain is also a big Oxygen user, consuming about a third of the oxygen that the body uses.
(disclaimer; this is mostly from what I have learned in Anatomy, I may have gotten some of this wrong, so if you have researched it you can correct me)

I made a salmon on our grill for supper yesterday, and when I took it out, it was snowing. Then I put in a frying pan full of batter that turned out to be a reasonably good sourdough corn-millet-bread.

It was snowing?? Where do you live?!

You are supposed to say you're joking, or you will confuse the inhabitants of Memverse something dreadful.
