A good way to clean kettles is to boil tang in them. takes dirt and such right off

[Lemon Cheesecake]

I wonder if it is the citric acid in it that does that? Bet it makes it smell nice!

[Maro]

oh it does but you need to wash it a couple times after you're done so your coffees and such don't end up with a tang tinge to their tastes

[Lemon Cheesecake]

so, went and bought some tang and am trying it out on a pan now..forgot to ask how long you are supposed to let it sit

[Lemon Cheesecake]

ok..this is a gross believe it or not... right off the pages of your science text book... you think you have headaches? This ladies was caused by tapeworms!

[+] SPOILER

A Texas woman suffering from debilitating headaches after a trip to Mexico was stunned when she learned the source of her pain: tapeworms that had burrowed into her brain.

Yadira Rostro, 31, of Garland, Texas, northeast of Dallas, recently visited Methodist Dallas Medical Center with headaches that were causing sight impairment for nearly nine months, Fox 8 reported. When doctors investigated her brain, they discovered sacs of larvae from eight tapeworm eggs that had been growing.

Doctors expect Rostro to make a full recovery after removing the larvae. They suspect that the parasite found their way into the woman’s brain after she ate food contaminated with fecal matter during a trip to Mexico.

My only question is why she would wait 9 months to see what was going on with her. o-o

[Maro]

yes why wait that long to go see what's up with your head o.O;

[Lemon Cheesecake]

What I don't get are the people who do the tapeworm diet! DIDN"T THEY LEARN ANYTHING IN SCIENCE CLASS!?!?!? Ugggghhhh

[MonkeyGirl18]

Probably not. they were probably the ones who didnt pay attention or skipped.

[Zombie Bunny]

Wait... TAPEWORM diet?! That's a THING?

[MonkeyGirl18]

Yeah, been around for a while.

Zombiebunny: Beginning of the 1900's the tapeworm was a big fad for losing weight. Problem was the little critters populated and migrated... latest return to the tapeworm diet is one Tara Banks (America's next top model)was promoting. Like, REALLY?

Reality is that having worms CAN make you lose weight - whether it is tape worms or pinworms or....? But at what cost to your body?

[Maro]

Yeah what they don't tell you about the tapeworm diet is you can get extremely sick and even die.

[Lemon Cheesecake]

apparently even if they try to clean them out if they leave one minuscule piece it can keep growing. Ugh.

in other news.... dehydration can cause head aches too so stay hydrated!

[Zombie Bunny]

That is just.... bleh. Why would you WANT worms?
