male enigma. Sounds like progress. I love you two spike

But as a self-confessed grammar-Nazi, I feel compelled to point out the incorrect usage of the word "two".*

Actually, that makes you more of a spelling Nazi than a grammar Nazi.

Well, I’ll see your banana, and raise you two coconuts.

“Two” is spelled correctly, which is why I said it was used incorrectly. And since morphology is a subset grammar, I felt it most accurate to describe myself as a grammar-Nazi.

FWIW, I also claim that enigma is a troll, and have killfiled her accordingly. Although, I don't believe I've ever called you stupid.

No, it was spelled incorrectly. He accidentally used a "w" instead of an "o."

Here is my best recipe.
List of things you need.
4 bundles of collared green leaves(4 plants),
1 pounds of baby carrots,
1 sweet onion,
1 large tomato,
lemon pepper 1 heaping table spoon,
tabasco sauce 2 table spoons,
soy sauce 4 table spoons,
water
vegetable oil

Preparation:
Cut away stems from collareds, cut leaves into 2 inch squares. mix leaves with 1/3 cup vegetable oil.
Dice the tomato 3/4" squares.
Dice the onion 1" squares.

place in a wok and simmer on medium tossing leaves and cook evenly for 15 min.
Add diced tomato, and one pound of baby carrots.
Add 1/2 cup of water.
Toss or stir the leaves, tomato, and carrots for 5 min on medium.
Add tabasco sauce and soy sauce.
Add the onion and cook for 10 min. constantly stirring and tossing so nothing sticks to the bottom of the pot or Wok
more oil may be needed-add in small amounts until desired amount is reached.
Mix in lemon pepper, serve while hot.

Note: every thing can be separately cooked.
You don't want the onions to soft (they get sticky),
You don't want to cook the carrots to long (they get mushy),
You don't want to forget to stir the greens (they can burn and stick to pot).

If you cook every thing just right you will end up with
crisp greens with crisp pan fried carrots and onions
with a hint of spice and tomato.

Note: collared greens can be pungent if you are not used to eating them. The trick to enjoying this dish is to breath the aroma of the vegetables while you chew.
This dish will also help alleviate chest congestion.

Enjoy

I make quinoa porridge with almond milk for breakfast. I usually throw slivered almonds, fruit, cinnamon and honey in it.

I read about that study when it came out. One of the most interesting things about it hasn't been mentioned here.

The people who have the markers they've identified not only live longer they also live better. IIRC, this was not what they were specifically looking for, it was an un-anticipated correlation.

Basically these people experienced old age the way most of us will experience middle age: yes there are problems, but they are not debilitating, and the body and mind basically work great. It's quite remarkable, actually.

If further study backs up their findings, I bet there will be a lot of interest in those few families lucky enough to contain those genes.

Just for example, imagine how much you could make as a sperm donor to a rich and powerful family...

Jay,what was the diet that people living in blue zones had where they lived to 100?
The New England Cenetarian study, do you know what their diet was? Is it in the research?
Did their research show any of predictors of living to 100 by 77% besides their genetic markers?
Could any of those genetic markers be influenced by their diet ?
So if you had a healthy diet do you see any correlation of their survival and passing these genes (genomes) to the next generation?
Hypothetically could this be an example of "survival of the fittest" in some manner?

You probably should be concerned about saturated fat intake. Saturated fat increases serum cholesterol, which increases the risk of heart disease.

Like I said up-thread, I haven't had butter in my home for two decades. I can't think of anything you can do with butter that you can't do with either olive oil or canola oil, and you'll be healthier by doing it.

As to my comment about sugars being insoluble in fats, I hope I wasn't being to glib. In theory, everything is soluble in everything to some extent. So even though sugars are considered to be insoluble in fats, if coconuts contain fructose, then there could be trace amounts of fructose in coconut oil. I would think that the concentration would be too low to be of concern, but perhaps you should contact a dietitian or physician to be certain.

<previously quoted recipe snipped>

I agree butter is death. I only use about 4 tbsp per week and will give it up once I find a tasty substitute for cooking portabella mushrooms for "burgers". Luckily my cholesterol levels are in the optimal range. I appreciate the details on fructose content in oil, it was better than responses I've received in the past from my nutritionist who just gives me a yes or no, but never a why.

You're a Lamarckian?

Are you in scientific research?

It's Saint Patrick's Day, I think he means you're looking for a pot of gold.
