Where the hell does skim milk cost twice the price of 2%? Every store I shop at has all the milks of the same brand at the same price, usually a very cheap price because most grocery stores use it as a loss leader.

No, the stupid hack is saying that if you take a litre of 2% milk and dilute it with a litre of water, you now have 2 litres of 1% milk for the price of 1 litre.

Which doesn't work of course, because you've also diluted the protein, calcium and . . . other stuff in the milk, not just the fat content. Which is why it's a stupid hack, not a genius hack.

In Canada (at least the provinces I've lived in) lower fat milk is cheaper than higher fat milk, even within a single brand. Prices usually go: homo < 2% < 1% < skim

The homemade playdough is actually a pretty fun thing to do with kids. They have more fun making it and then playing with it than just opening a container.

I like how one of the ingredients is just "glue", not a particular sort of glue. Superglue? PVA? Clag? Sure, whatever.

I guess this is a survival tip, if you get trapped in a lemon and nail factory.

Elmer's Glue + borax is a legit cheap easy way of making tons of Gak for kids, and when it dries up you can just toss it and make more.

Isn't borax poisonous?

quote:

Borax, sodium tetraborate decahydrate, according to one study, is not acutely toxic.[30] Its LD50 (median lethal dose) score is tested at 2.66 g/kg in rats,[31] meaning that a significant dose of the chemical is needed to cause severe symptoms or death. The lethal dose is not necessarily the same for humans. On pesticide information websites it is listed as a non-lethal compound and of no hazardous concerns.[32]

First registered in 1946 by the EPA as an insecticide with various restrictions, all restrictions were removed in February 1986 due to the low toxicity of Borax, as published in two EPA documents relating to boric acid and borax.[33][34]

Although it cited inconclusive data, a re-evaluation in 2006 by the EPA still found that "There were no signs of toxicity observed during the study and no evidence of cytotoxicity to the target organ."[35]

They are being prosecuted and there's an ongoing trial atm. Another nice touch in the article is that it's calling out the child autopsy's credibility because it has 'medical examiner's opinion' written on it and as we all know it's just like an opinion, man. Also it seems the parents refused to take the child to a doctor but did take him to a...naturopath. The child was given maple syrup against meningitis and empyema.

That's not how you make play dough though.

The bottom of your feet are powerful and direct access points to internal organs in your body through what is known as meridians in Chinese medicine. These meridians are pathways to each organ with your body. Some people say that meridians do not exist within the body or at the bottom of the feet. For those that understand Chinese medicine you may know that the meridian system is very closely correlated with the nervous system.

If you believe you have nerves and a nervous system, you believe you have meridians too, it’s basically the same thing when you interpret it and look at where the meridians are within the body.

The bottom of the feet have many different nerve endings, approximately 7,000 (basically meridians) that directly link to different organs within the body. They are very powerful electrical circuits within the body and are often dormant because we wear shoes and don’t get accupuncture done to help the meridians or nerves in any way. This is why I recommend walking outside barefoot! To stimulate those meridians on the bottom of your feet as well as to ground yourself with the earth’s negative ion field.

One of the coolest ways to open up these electrical pathways (meridians) and to help purify your internal organs without doing anything internal (diet related) is to cut up onions or garlic and put them in your socks (at the bottom part of your feet) while sleeping.

Onions and garlic are known air purifiers and when applied to the skin topically they kill germs and bacteria but also the phosphoric acid (the substance from onions that makes you cry when you cut them open) enters the bloodstream it helps to purify the blood and kill any bacteria or germs that may be festering waiting to give you the flu.

So it’s fairly simple, here are the two steps to purify your blood, and kill germs and bacteria.

Step 1: Cut Up Organic Onions Into Slices (White or Red Onions)
You’ll want to use organic onions because they will be free of pesticides and other chemicals you don’t want sitting on your feet and entering your bloodstream all night. You’ll just want to cut the onions into flat slices so that they can be applied to the bottom of your entire foot (like a platform) so the bottom of your feet are immersed with onion while you sleep.

Step 2: Put The Onions In Your Sock Under Your Foot (on the bottom) And Sleep!
As you sleep the natural healing powers of the onion will go to work through your skin (trans-dermal application) purifying your blood and killing bacteria and germs as well as absorbing toxins! It will also help to purify the air in your room.
