Not in the fridge Sue. In a drawer. I've never stored jam in a fridge. _________________ “It’s my field. It’s my child. I nursed it. I nourished it. I saw to its every want. I dug the rocks out of it with my bare hands and I made a living thing of it!”

It's not just google, my mum worked on a dermatology ward where they used medical honey as 'spreads' on ulcers - worked very well. _________________ Be humble, for you are made of earth

Spiders webs also assist clotting and sphagnum moss is an antiseptic for wound dressing. |

Let's get back to the point of all this: the supermarkets are beginning to respond to consumer concerns about the stuff sprayed onto their produce and the effects on wildlife and the wider environment.
YIPPEE!!!!
The long term consequences of such changes may be difficult to predict and will result in all sorts of changes to what we have become used to. But it is maybe the first brick knocked out of the agro-chemical wall. That, I'm my opinion, has to be good. |

You know, like we had been doing for the previous several thousand years!
I saw a programme tonight where they were making beer from discarded bread, TONNES of the stuff! We are told we can't feed people unless we go down the industrial/factory farm route, but where does that lead - mountains of
discarded food. There has to be another way. _________________ Be humble, for you are made of earth

I agree completely, Sue. It means re-directing the entire system, which is geared to shareholder profits and quick returns. I think it's called capitalism and it is ruining our planet. |
