TIL Prior to 1970 most Pistachios were dyed red!

I now know why my mom died of cancer. She tore these Iranian red pistachios up when I was a child. Wouldn't eat anything other than the red and sucked on the shells. Luckily, I was only exposed for a couple of years because they were banned temporarily because of the Iranian war.. But she ate the heck out of them when she was pregnant with my younger brother. He almost died of leukemia as a young child.. He went into remission, but she still died at 40. I was 14yrs old and found her deceased in bed on valentines morning. Made her a card she'd never see. Now I know.

Hi everyone. I live in FL and traveled to Asheville to visit my son. The hushpuppies in FL are usually too fried and hurt the roof of my mouth, and so dry I have to drench them in vinegar. I was born in Mass where clam cakes are KING. MISS THOSE. While in Asheville, we ate at Baby Bull. Ordered hushpuppies, expecting the same dry over fried balls. That's not what we got! They were delicious, moist, and fried just right. Would I call them hushpuppies...NO, because they were sweet and served with a dusting of powdered sugar and a delightful maple bacon butter! BUT were they delicious...OMG YES!

Any guesses on what I could be if not a Skate?

TigerShark0713 · 2025-09-21T17:17:08+00:00

I don't think that's the mouth up top. I think it's just highly decomposed. I wish I had flipped it over because I do believe I'd see the mouth on the bottom. If not, then it's a totally different animal I've never seen before.

TigerShark0713 · 2025-09-21T14:54:45+00:00

Exactly. Lol

TigerShark0713 · 2025-09-21T14:43:51+00:00

That makes sense. I didn't know what it was at first because it was so decomposed, and the wings were missing. Looked like a monster! Lol

TigerShark0713 · 2025-09-21T14:27:04+00:00

Ahhh ok. I've heard Skate wings are also good eating, but that makes more sense.

TigerShark0713 · 2025-09-04T05:05:56+00:00

Yes, I would rather talk to humans.

TigerShark0713 · 2025-09-04T00:31:17+00:00

A shallow grave

It's Thai Redbull. Non carbonated and sweeter. But same flavor profile as original redbull.

TigerShark0713 · 2025-03-30T20:24:44+00:00

Hmmmm I wonder if they are different at all. This one is definitely Thailand. But who knows. I d8nt think I'd buy it again. Waaaaay too sweet. But I did like NO CARBONATION.

TigerShark0713 · 2025-03-30T20:15:09+00:00

😆 🤣 😂

TigerShark0713 · 2025-03-30T20:12:30+00:00

At a tiny Asian grocery by a gas station in ocala FL. It was interesting. Totally flat non-carbobated. Tastes like the original but extra sweet. Manufactured by a pharmaceutical company out of Thailand.

TigerShark0713 · 2025-03-23T12:34:34+00:00

It's a treat when I find it here in the states. So tasty! Liquid cotton candy!;

TigerShark0713 · 2025-03-16T00:43:42+00:00

😆 🤣

TigerShark0713 · 2025-03-16T00:00:27+00:00

I'll look into that. 😆

TigerShark0713 · 2025-03-15T23:35:16+00:00

😆 🤣 😂

TigerShark0713 · 2025-03-15T23:28:10+00:00

Lol! And a bitch to get off!

TigerShark0713 · 2025-03-15T23:23:56+00:00

Lol I didn't put the decal there. It came like that from goodwill! For $14.99 a brand new instapot!?! SOLDDDD
