What happens if you accidentally eat a bug?
Comments (39)As people have said before, westerners are actually strange for not including some kinds of insects in their normal diet. Though, oddly, we think eating crustaceans is fine. Is there really THAT big a difference between a grasshopper and a shrimp? That said, insect larvae gross me out, so I probably would not eat any kind of grub or caterpillar, unless maybe it was prepared by someone who knew what they were doing (like some non-western cook that makes them all the time). The thought of accidentally eating, say, a cabbage worm, totally grosses me out. I've heard crickets and grasshoppers aren't too bad, again, properly prepared. And locusts are specifically mentioned as kosher in the scriptures! Hey, kosher restaurants could be totally missing out on a great alternative to shrimp. Parasites are a different matter, but don't you mainly get those from fecal contamination? An aphid or cabbage worm is not going to survive your digestive tract and become parasitic. Being a parasite is not that easy; they have to have a lot of adaptations to survive that environment and hide from your immune system....See MorePlease help me ID what kind of bug is eating my peppers
Comments (3)It looks like Flea Beetle damage. Keep an eye out for tiny black hopping beetles. They are very fast. The link below has a few options for control(did a quick web search). I have found nasturtiums to be a good trap crop. Here is a link that might be useful: flea beetle control...See MoreHELP- How Do You Disinfect After Stomach Flu/Virus- BAD!
Comments (32)I had C-diff years ago. In my case the antibiotics I was taking killed the "good" bacteria in my gut and the "bad bacteria" (C-diff) grew in my intestines instead. I understand some people have a really hard time getting their gut back to normal. I think must stomach bugs are some type of Noro virus. I don't think a mask would help http://www.cdc.gov/norovirus/about/overview.html OP-I hope your family is all better...See MoreCabbage: Do you grow it? Do you eat it?
Comments (68)aok27502- There are any number of vegetarian recipes that work well as substitutes for ground beef in recipes. These are three recipes I have in my file. #1 Ground Beef Substitute 1 c. lentils 1 c. rice 4 c. water Cook like rice and use as a substitute for ground beef. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #2 Ground Beef Substitute 1/2 c. quinoa* 1 vegetable bouillon cube (or beef flavored) 1 c. water 2 T. olive oil 1/2 medium onion, finely chopped 2 t. minced garlic 1 (15.5) can black beans (UNdrained) In a saucepan, bring 1 c. water and bouillon cube to a b oil. Add quinoa, stir, and reduce to a simmer. Cook until water is absorbed (approx. 20-minutes). Meanwhile, heat olive oil in skillet over med. heat. Add onion, stirring to coat, then garlic. Saute until translucent. Add beans and bring to a simmer, until heated thoroughly. At this point mash some of the beans with a potato masher. Once quinoa is cooked, mix it into the beans. Flavor to taste or to the purpose you will be using the substitute. Makes six 1/2-cup servings. *If you happen to have red quinoa, it has better color than white quinoa for this recipe, but either will work. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ #3 Ground Beef Substitute http://veggieconverter.com/whole-food-vegetarian-ground-beef-substitute-recipe/...See Moreagmss15
