our free range chickens lay eggs with very yellow, almost orange yokes. I've read that professional egg farms feed their chickens a derivative from the marigold, high is saffron, to keep the yokes yellow.
There is a trade off for free range chickens. We loose many to predators.
My cardiologist does not want me to eat foods high in K. I have an artificial heart valve which requires very thin blood to keep me from having a heart attack or stroke.
I am on a high dosage of warfarin (rat poison). So, when a blood test shows too much thinning, I am allowed to eat some broccoli, or CHEETOS!
Thank you, fascinating.
Fromage to age, cheese production has been a gouda cottage industry ....
Warfarin
Is that a Call of Duty game?
“The Devious Cheesemakers” is a good name for a band.
"I want to buy some cheese."
Thanks for this. I try to eat as healthy as possible because well, Obamacare sure ain’t gonna be there to have our backs. Never heard of this before, will check the links.
And then it began, LOL.
Very funny skit and aggravating at the same time.

That would be rat poison.
Here’s a link to some information from the National Institutes of Health about coumadin and vitamin K (including a list of foods) . . . I think it’s saying that you can eat foods rich in vitamin K, as long as you are consistent from day to day . . . because your dosage of coumadin can be adjusted to be in balance with your diet, including your intake of vitamin K, and levels are validated through regular blood tests.

What should I remember about warfarin (Coumadin) and vitamin K?
1. Follow your prescription exactly, and keep your follow-up appointments for blood tests such as the INR/PT. Warfarin (Coumadin) is a very important drug for you.
2. Keep vitamin K intake constant from day to day because warfarin (Coumadin) interacts with vitamin K in your body.
3. Avoid herbal products and dietary supplements that may affect vitamin K and warfarin (Coumadin) unless approved by a qualified health care provider.
Years ago, a former neighbor would put about 100 chickens out in his pasture every spring; they roosted in the barn. By fall he’d only have 20 or 30 left. When he would put them out, I’d rib him about having just refilled his coyote feeder.
No; Warfarin is a Star Fleet officer.
This is an interesting piece. I am a cheese eater.
My wife somehow bought some Cabot Vermont extra sharp cheddar. Wow!! it is goood. It is white.
The question in my mind was...... how or why do they make it white?
Now I know.
Was at the supermarket today, and checked out the brand of Cheddar. While it was made in Northern Ireland, the company that produces it is actually Danish! The company is named Uhrenholt, and the brand is Emborg.
Absolutely. The flesh of true ‘free range’ chickens is reddish=purple from eating worms.
Be leery of fake ‘free range’ chickens with white meat.

Man in crowd: He said, “Blessed are the cheesemakers.”
