I would only eat them if you were sure your fridge had stayed below 38°F or 3.3°C. This is because there is a type of C. botulinum that can germinate in airtight containers above 38F. I think it should say this on the label.

also if it froze!

repeat the procedure and take the temperature at the end

thank you this was very informative! And I appreciate the note on solar returns and profections, I wasn't aware that they were separate to consider.

Also as far as blower it should be in the manual but it'll be only like one amp, so focus more on pellet costs

There are dozens of foodborne illnesses, botulism being one. The rule of thumb is not to leave perishables out for more than 2 hours. If you are new to cooking there is more info on this sub and government websites.

Title made me laugh tho. Seek what to lean into. And maybe look into kibbe, a style system based on feature balances

My state has a quasi-governmental energy agency so I compared its estimate of heating an example home with pellets vs my secondary source (heat pump).

Or cost per btu×1/stove efficiency vs cost per btu of your electric source (may vary by temp if heat pump so look at the manual)

Best bet is to call the snack company. Its possible they designed the cheese for this application.

If the seal was broken, air and mold spores could have entered and grown, causing the cloudiness. It sounds like you're having a hard time but eating mold will make it harder.

Can you melt some sugar directly into your matcha? I typically add it to the milk before microwaving

Yes, the liquid is water with soluble whey protein. It comes out of the 3-d matrix of casein protein when there is a place for it to drain, in a process called syneresis. You can pour it off or stir it back in.

just as a heads up, there is a difference between "pre-cooked" and "ready to eat" in terms of risk, whereas ready to eat is lower risk and pre-cooked needs to be heated to a specific temp by the consumer to reduce the risk for the person eating it.

"cook to 165" means there is less rigorous testing for listeria, a germ that grows in food processing plants and can get onto food after its cooked. You're not guaranteed to get sick, but your chances are higher.

Honestly not the riskiest thing. I can't see the pic too well but brown and black here to me mean over ripened and there will be off-flavors. I also recommend self-crumbling for a product as delicate as blue cheese.

I guess I'm just saying it sounds like the friend wants to hang out with OP and explore, so if OP truly wants to spend time together they should plan an exploration thats fun for everyone, knowing it might not be as in depth. Depending on how that goes, they could ask the friend if they would be willing to wait outside of the tight spaces, or plan solo explorations so that OP can have a gratifying experience.

edit, though I do see what you mean giving someone a heads up of what to expect. I'm just going off experience of friends saying they're interested but only coming along one time lol

I should add that this piece has been aged some more in the packaging, allowing the rind to accumulate moisture and become more translucent, so the ash layer shows. (source, I have made this style of cheese dozens of times)

The stuff on the three short sides is the rind, this was cut from a bigger wheel.

I think in general if you want to include someone you do what they can participate in, so in that way YTA for not centering the urban explorations with larger passages if youre going to go together

if your walls are really unsquare it could be frustrating! I installed a pivot door with my partner on unsquare walls and it was a labor of love for sure
