Reply to comment by whatatwit in Researchers have developed a USDA temporarily approved vaccine for honeybees. It's put into the Royal Jelly that is food the Queen eats and uses for her larvae for the first 3 days. The inactivated bacteria is passed to her brood preventing them from getting highly contagious American foulbrood. by whatatwit

I always knew that bees would take over the planet as our overlords some day. All hail the bees! :p

Reply to comment by SweetAlyssumm in LE CREUSET stockpot - not really BIFL by crysardo

I don’t want to harp on all Lodge, I have a cast iron pan and love it. I actually just inherited my grandmas lodge pan from the 60’s and it’s awesome. Just not overly willing to get the enamel pot again. But I also am thankful I didn’t spend $500+ like some of the le creuset stuff goes for. I do believe the lodge pots are ~$120-$150 (Canadian dollars) so not too bad.

Maybe 20 years ago they had better practises of Quality? I mean I feel like that’s always the case when people talk about brands from the 70’s or 80’s. My mom is still on her original dish ware from her wedding that is like 32 years old.

I have a lodge enamel Dutch oven and while I do love it, it’s not the best. I got it as a wedding present 5 years ago and the coloured enamel on the outside has cracked and chipped in many spots. And the inside enamel has tons of hairline cracks which are really noticeable. Nothing has flaked on the inside so I keep using it but it’s not a BIFL in my eyes.

Agree 100%. I admit I used manual toothbrushes till about a year ago because I get them free from the dentist and figured why spend the $50+ for an electric. Went to my first cleaning since buying an electric toothbrush and not a single cavity and they spent less time removing plaque so smaller bill = win, win, win!
