The only other place 40 years ago that I experienced store milk as water was after returning from visit at my uncle where we drank goat milk - awesome stuff. mao ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Raw milk is legal in New Hampshire, there are several places we can get it. I haven't dared to try it yet but we do often get non-homogenized milk from the same dairy. Its pasteurized but you need to remember to share it before drinking, or don't to get some cream for cereal. -Curt From: Rich Thomas via Mercedes mercedes@okiebenz.com To: mercedes@okiebenz.com Cc: Rich Thomas richthomas79td...@constructivity.net Sent: Saturday, July 25, 2015 10:41 AM Subject: Re: [MBZ] Way OT: Blendtec recipes, anyone?

It is the adulterated fats that kill. Natural fats, as nature intended are necessary for life, but not available in prepared foods.

The spec list said: lifetime coupling-and-blade; which may mean that you can't take the blade off and replace it or sharpen it; you have to replace the whole bottom end just like mine.
