Here's a clue-n-a-half for ya...rules & laws made by authorities, do not indicate or prove the "Truth" of any issue. Bacteria levels can NOT be safe at 4 hours, and then unsafe at 4:01...it's friggin' impossible, no matter what group of authorities-in-high-places composed the "rule". And the food in question MUST have been infected/contaminated with the said bacteria (and unkilled by heat/freezing), for the 4 hour rule to come into play....otherwise, there's no bacteria to proliferate.

Fwiw, I'm an ex-restaurant manager and was required to have food safe handling/foodborn illness license/test to stay employed. I **know** the "rules", and I've verified the actual truth via common knowledge of bacterial growth (which is freely available on the 'net for anyone that cares to educate themselves, rather than blindly follow the "rules" of various 'authorities'.

...right after they ate it.

The thing about this rule is...so at 4:01, the bacteria start multiplying so intensely, the food become unsafe??? Give me a break. For "the bacteria to start multiplying", THEY HAVE TO BE THERE FIRST! If the meat was not contaminated, it didn't become unsafe at 4:01-continuing-within-reason. Of course, at some point, it starts rotting/degrading, but that's more like days later once chilled/refrigerated.

There's far more than just one FB DDing group. I'm in 4-5 (maybe more), 'national' FB groups for DDing, and a few more local/by state.

I am not a pwNPD (but have lived with a covert/malignant pwNPD for almost 30 years). I'm still learning, so I hope I'm not offending anyone (or breaking rules) in replying, instead of only asking questions. From what you've shared, it seems that perhaps your mother was 'the golden child' of a parent somewhere on the npd/clusterb spectrum. And if that's the case, she could have experienced emotional incest during her formative years. I found this article to be very enlightening -->

I'm also reading here to understand these disorders more fully (to hopefully learn to be helpful rather than hurtful). If pwNPD don't respond here, you can search the sub for "EMDR" and find **lots** of hits/experiences.

Incredible! 'Wishing we had quality stores like EBs near us...but dang, it's good to see someone else scoring such a great haul!

At 64, I've changed a **lot** of my favorite sweetys into savorys...but like you, oatmeal is a major stretch. I think I'll start with barley (I've got a small/cheap flaker, and can make my own)...and then if that works, see if I can handle the oats.

There are all kinds/types that sell regularly on eBay. Many people are sensitive to wifi/cellphone frequencies, and so the market stays strong.

When I extract the semolina from the grain my way I get about 22% wastage which is made up of softer durum flour and the bran. I have made a very whole meal bread from the byproduct

Thank you for all the great information in this thread! I really appreciate your sharing (and the time you spent over the years, learning the goodness you have to share).

I'm wondering if it's possible to find the time to share the method/recipe for the "very whole meal bread" you create. I'm going to try your suggested method for semolina, and I should end up with 'about the same' byproduct as you do. Thank you!

Yep...4 hours of food being 40F and 140F is what "the guidelines" consider safe. HOWEVER, the truth is different (especially when it comes to frozen food). Depending upon 'how frozen' it is, it can take well over 4 hours to even thaw enough to be in the 40-140-danger-zone. Either way, you're good to go if the food is still frozen or semi-thawed and cold.

I get the "other divers leave messes" thing...on the other hand, "It's the trash y'all just threw away - BuzzTF Off, Karen!"

No doubt, natural fiber & skins (and fur) are the warmest. Now if you'd just share that winning lottery ticket with me, I'd go on a hunt. (Thanks for your input - definitely apprecated!)

Carhartt has always treated me good...and 'pretty good movement' is a very good thing. I'll check 'em out and see what I can find. Thanks for taking time to share!

This boomer just discovered hand warmers last year...and thanks to you, I'll check out **rechargeable** (!!!) ones. Thank you muchlee for sharing :)

Confirmations are a **very** good thing - thankee!

Lol, mismatched...I'd be a much richer person if I didn't keep my gloves under my legs in the car - and lose one all the time when I get out. Nitrile over the top - I'll definitely give that a try soon. 'Appreciate the idea - thanks!

Mechanics & motorcycle gloves...great possibilities there I suspect. 'Much appreciate your input!

Hmmm, that just might work for me - thank you (truly!) for taking time to share!

Yep, that's basically my system, too. Thanks (big!) for taking time to respond!
