My son-in-law keeps a large Ziploc bag of a mixture of Skittles, Sweet Tarts and Runts just for that purpose. It’s hard for me to stay out of that bag (in the pantry) when we visit. I usually have to refill it.

Remember the bachelor cook’s motto: Hot Grease Kills Germs. You should always fry everything.

I can testify to the truth of that. Last night I had 5-day old linguini in clam sauce for my supper and I was dead within half an hour.



















I got better.

Refrigeration is your friend.


So is your nose. If it doesn’t smell distinctly of pasta before you heat it...it’s spoiled.

Unfortunately, there's people out there who have no common sense. And they vote.

"I think if you make pasta salad and serve yourself from it, then put it back in the fridge, it should be good and not dangerous for 5 or 6 days, depending on ingredients. At least that has been our experience."

I just ate some 5 day-old paste today. Keep your refer as close to freezing as you can (in the back of the top shelf is often the coldest) and things can last a long time. I will be cooking (well) and eating some egg from the fridge that are over 2 weeks over code, as I have before. But I usually mic (not eggs) anything old till quite hot, usually for about 2 minutes per serving. That will kill bacteria if not get rid of toxin waste.

A lady in San Diego died when a man tried to commit suicide by jumping off a building (I think it was a parking garage, but no one knows from which floor he jumped), and landed on her. He lived, she died.

You have to eat pasta with red wine. The alcohol in the wine takes care of any issues.
