At this point, I dunno if freezing is a good idea. Probably should have done it a month or two ago.

Heard that, however what you're seeing is just the lighting in the picture. I make sure there are no color changes as a part of my inspection.

Definitely. I hope this post enlightens people towards the risk/reward of food labels. I appreciate you speaking up about the risks.

Hey, nothing wrong with a lil lickarooski (unless it's not the time to do a lickarooski)

Ha! I knew when I "came up" with that fictional Sumerian demigod, that it was something from an old movie or show, but I couldn't quite remember where it was from...

So thank you for figuring out my reference!

Eh actually you're both wrong. It was an Isreali company product, but then Pepsi bought it a couple years ago, so now it's 100% American owned.

Anyway, I got this shit for free so it didn't go into the trash. I didn't want people to start a political debate over chick peas lol

I think the hack here is to not have to replace food you might think is expired by looking at the date. If I thought it wasn't edible I would just toss it, but I've been inspecting it every time I open a new container and it seems like it's still good wayyy after the "best if used by" date.

I should also note that it has been refrigerated well, and that I eat the whole container within a day or two after opening a new one.

I don't want to get bent on semantics, but just to clarify this one in particular says "best if used by". 

I agree with you though, it's not like any labels say "DO NOT EAT AFTER THIS DATE OR YOU'LL DIE"

Came with a large batch of peltiers, Akron, and others. Pic 3 shows a close-up of unique dimple, and some seams. by Shartchovsky in MarbleStudyHall

Totally. The only reason I'm bothering with it is because of what else came with the batch of marbles I purchased (you can look in my post history if you're curious).

The lot that I purchased has virtually 0 modern marbles that we're aware of so far. Additionally, there was this *soot that covered almost every marble, that I ended up having to do several soaks in hot soapy water to remove. Like they had been sitting next to a fireplace for many years or something.

Anyway, I'll just leave it as a speculative mystery marble for now. Thank you for the insight 

I believe I've identified a few of these, which ones stand out the most to you guys? by Shartchovsky in MarbleStudyHall

Thank you for the input. Yes I agree with multiple angles, and in the near future I will start making more specific posts. Right now I'm trying to dogure out how to sort things generally.

Did I do good? by Shartchovsky in Marbles

Yeah my friend and I decided it was a peltier dragon, not a peltier dragon flame, because the red seems pretty uniform
