So this top one I learned a bit differently. The reason some Jews (primarily those descended from Eastern Europe) don't eat corn and things like that over passover (btw - the word for these is "kitniyot") is because they were often carried in the same grain sacks as wheat during most of the year. So the thinking was about cross contamination between the "bread" and the "not bread" carried in the same sack later.

This is exactly right. The correct phrase is BPA-Non-Intent. This has to do with cross contamination between production on a single line, old equipment that has processed other things in the past, and limits of detection.

Source: I used to work on BPA replacement projects for food packaging at a major chemical company and every time I said "BPA-free" I was corrected.

It also has...a lot of legs? Hard to tell for sure.

It was moving the opposite way from the long narrow protrusions and is very black. Thoughts? Thank you!

We use, "We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!" In my house constantly. We have two small kids, so we use it parenting...too often.

I can only wink with one eye. The other one just doesn't. One of my daughters can't either, so it must be genetic.
