Same. So much aspartame and red food dye. Mmmmmm.
Pro tip: when you go camping fill it with raw eggs (leave the shells at home). The Tupperware people were geniuses, there’s the exact right amount of tension to get one egg at a time.

Is that not a huge container to take eggs in? And eggs aren't known for being good to store raw and de-shelled in a potentially warm environment - am i wrong?

Always threw them in the cooler, worked well for us 🤷🏻♀️ I think it holds a dozen but it’s been awhile.

We used eggshell to make the grounds settle in camp coffee.

I'm sorry what? Can you explain?

I think he went to Camp Coffee, where the grounds are notoriously raised and unkempt. Without the eggshells, he wouldn't be here today. The eggshells are the only thing to settle the grounds at Camp Coffee.

Hmm. I read that as they didn't want to hire an excavator so they used eggshells as fill.

I think if you are camping and make coffee that is just grounds and water in a pot ("camp coffee") and throw in some eggshell, the coffee grounds will sink to the bottom of the pot.
That's the boring answer

Camp Coffee (or Cowboy Coffee) is made over the campfire or a gas camp stove with a pitcher. You put the water and the coffee grounds in together and bring it to a boil for about 4-5 minutes or a rolling boil. You then add either cold water or eggshells to collect the grounds and have them settle to the bottom before pouring.

No evidence it causes cancer

That's what big aspartame wants you to think.

It can't be worse for you than sugar. We've been consuming aspartame for 40 years and it hasn't been linked to any chronic illnesses. Sugar directly causes diabetes and cancer on such a massive scale in north america.

Aspartame was not used in the 1980s except in canned drinks after 1984. Everything else, not until the 90s.

My parents were big fans of Equal (aspartame), Imperial Margarine, Diet Coke, and powdered butter flavor seasoning. My childhood Koolaid was powered by little blue packets.
