I just saw a new story detailing a problem with the April 2004 Issue of Southern Living magazine. There is a recipe for Dinner Rolls in the magazine that has caused big problems.
The recipe calls for, one cup water, and half cup of shortening such as Crisco. It say to bring these items to a boil for five minutes. The Lewisville, TX fire dept followed the above on an outside stove. After three minutes, an explosion occurred that sent boiling water/oil at least ten feet up, and created a fire at the stove. The fire dept repeated this test with the exact same results.

This is a serious matter. It never crossed my mind that today was AFD.

Why would you boil shortening and water for five minutes? You can only accomplish two things: getting the water hot and melting the shortening. Stop when those are accomplished.

I really don't care how it is taken. I posted the info, and I am sure most, after taking a look at the link, will see it as serious.

ICEBOX ROLLS? LOL Sounds like a "Happy Fun Ball" type of product!
Someone's gotta have the "warnings" associated with Happy Fun Ball around here.

My wife got this notice also.
She sells the Southern Living stuff.

Maybe the magazine is now being run by terrorist and they are trying to get us all to burn our houses down. That's my theory and I'm sticking to it!

It's not a joke. I have the magazine. Skeptics can go directly to SouthernLiving.com website and read the article.

Please remove this post.
This is a very serious warning, and has nothing to do with AFD. I had no idea it would be viewed as a joke.
