I don't like watermelon. SamKnause Jul 2017 #3

I used local Amish Bacon, local Amish bread, my own lettuce and tomatoes and organic mayo jpak Jul 2017 #6

Yum indeed ! SamKnause Jul 2017 #8

That's straight-up food porn NotASurfer Jul 2017 #11

The Amish bacon was pricey - but well worth it. jpak Jul 2017 #14

I like a BLT without the Bacon. It is almost as good. demigoddess Jul 2017 #31

Never thought of deviled eggs as a summer food. Dave Starsky Jul 2017 #10

Ice cold would mean frozen. Kaleva Jul 2017 #15

Nope - in chemistry, ice-cold means immersed in ice - not frozen jpak Jul 2017 #16

In chemistry, you are talking about transfer of energy from the beer to the ice Kaleva Jul 2017 #22

Never followed any protocols calling for ice-cold solutions -eh? jpak Jul 2017 #23

Searching the Science group for an answer to your statement. Kaleva Jul 2017 #42

Working with sodium borohydride solutions requires they they be kept ice-cold jpak Jul 2017 #44

isn't there enough alcohol in beer to keep it from freezing at 32 degrees F? OriginalGeek Jul 2017 #37

You are correct. Kaleva Jul 2017 #40

It is an acquired taste - but they do make Moxie-flavored everything here in Maine jpak Jul 2017 #45

Orange soda would be delicious. It would be like a creamsicle. left-of-center2012 Jul 2017 #48
