Cooked pineapple crush as a sauce is just fine with moose, elk, venison or bison.
Food shortage again?

Allegedly Mafia hitmen would pri-ck their fingers in random fashion and then soak in Pineapple juice so that the Bromelain would works its protein destroying magic.

There’s always a Hawaiiand favorite: pineapple and Spam.Pineapple with any sort of savoury food? Come on guys, you are better than this! Hopefully a Mod will come along and lock the thread before any other wildly unsuitable dishes are proposed with a pineapple accompaniment!
You’d like Nat’s What I Reckon on YouTube. He has strong views on jar sauce, and makes a lovely Bolognese sauce. Can’t publish a link, he’s very sweary. Worth a look for sure
Agree about keeping some stocks - you may get ill and not be able to get out, lose job, etc., let alone Covid lockdown food rush.
I donate my foodstuffs that are getting close to "best before" dates to the local foodbank. No waste then, at least on my part.
Think I'd be worrying more about uncovering some random Tarantulas.
Tarantula with your bananas, sir? Shopper reveals terrifying moment he discovered spider hanging off bunch of fruit he picked up in supermarket
Mark Drinkwater, 42, said he was left with his 'heart beating through his chest' after discovering the spider in the fruit and veg section of his local Lidl supermarket in Sydenham, south-east London.

I was a member of the Young Wives group at the village Kirk.We had a programme of 'speakers' who visited throughout the year. Interesting sort of folks, and of a diverse nature. This is rather comfortably off village, and the Young Wives was a very polite group, very lady like.
Anyway, the Speaker who was supposed to turn up took ill, and in his place were sent two of the men who usually worked unloading, sorting and bagging the bananas that came in by boat. Fyffes bananas to be precise. Instead of a heartwarming tale of a company doing well by it's foreign workforce, nutrition, recipes, etc., we were regaled by the tales of spiders, snakes, lizards, huge great beetles, weird things that tucked themselves away in the big stemmed bunches of bananas. How they dealt with them, (badly, kind of Carry On by the sounds of it
) how someone lost a finger to a bite that went black, etc.,Quite enlightening really, and a real hoot on a dreich afternoon. They looked terribly embarrassed to be formally thanked and offered a cup of tea and home baking on the Women's Guild's good china
Fair left us a bit wary about the Greengrocer's though.

Thanks for that Toddy.
Well , I'm now all set for my Nightmare material...
( dreich ??? )
I began my wine making using California Zinfandel grapes. Hand crank crusher.
The wine was very good and very inexpensive so my grape order increased year after year.
I should have made an inventory of the six-legged and eight-legged stow-aways in the grape bunches.
Our poor little grocery store has little storage space in the back so there's another cause for empty shelves.
Plus a real big jackass display of 50 brands of hot sauce. A shelf better put to food, methinks.

Dreich.....a long dull, damp, relentlessly grey and gloomy kind of day.
It's a pan northern Europe word. I met (long story, I'll cut it short) with other archaeologists at a conference in Latvia a few years back. It was a right dreich day, and I said so. The Danish lady agreed and said her version of the same word, and the Swedish lady said something that sounded like, "Ja, dreechen". The Norwegian lady just nodded in full understanding
Sorry about the nightmares, I admit it took a while for us not to look very warily at a bunch of bananas, let alone the boxes stacked up in the Greengrocer's.
The men from Fyffes seemed quite happy to be sent home with a selection of home baking though, and since bananas was the theme....everything from loaf to scones and banana cream pies.

Does K cause insanity?
Anyhow no crawlies; though I did find a small brown spider in one when I was packing which I put out without a fuss.
Unpacking bananas must be a hoot. But not for me, Im not a great eater of bananas.
I went into Aldis, this morning, no bare shelves.
I think my Dad is overeacting

My doctor said k causes your heart to stop beating if you od it. Don't eat all the bananas at once.
We bought some extra shelving recently, lots of basics from Costco but over lockdown my wife was ordering Kilner jars like she had shares. Now the garden is turning over (it's turning chilly up here already) the stuff she has made is great.
I am liking this planning and storing like we used to, I am really enjoying rarely going into shops again. I may keep it up.

It does seem like the delivery slots for certain supermarkets are vanishing at an increasing rate.
even on 'priority' some of the next available slots are days away.
You'll be pleased to know however that Pineapples are still in stock.
