My dad used to say, some 40 years ago, that the chemicals they're
putting into the food to give it a longer shelf life was harming
the public. That older generation were wise folks.

DD,
I read about the Bamboo manufacting process and that saddens me.
Too bad the mechanical process is so labor consuming and costly.
The towels are soft and I was glad to find them. It makes you
wonder how many other products are chuck full of chemicals.

My trash pick-up bill just went up again by $6.00 making it $39.00 for three months. That doesn't sound too bad until you realize we separate plastic from paper from glass, then from trash itself. The trash people sell our recycled stuff and make a nice piece of change and yet up, up, up go our bills.

Methinks the people getting rich are the chemical companies.
They put chemicals in everything it seems! Sorry about your
trash pick-up bill going up Chatty. My goodness has gasoline
every jumped lately. We'll have to get around in ultralights
pretty soon. LOL...

My SIL bought a mini couper auto. I like those smart cars but
they wouldn't work where I am. WB and I live in the snowbelt.
A car that small would stay stuck until spring, in the first snowbank it encounter.

That is so funny Anne, I can picture it. Use to do the same when living in Illinois, except many times my mailbox wasn't there, the snow plow had knocked it down.
