Round about 1900 they used Waterglass (Na2 SiO3) to preserve eggs.

Synonym: Sodium water glass
72055-1KG 17.60 GBP

yours is dissolved conc. 32-40% 1l for 15 quid - yes £10 for a litre of water is expensive...

How do you get a phone message from a backpacker? I thought that cell coverage was nonexistent on most backpacking trails.

He seems to have cell coverage if he's on a mountain top. Any other time is pretty much out of any chance of getting one.

I just got another call, and we solidified where I pick him up. He had originally said that I was to pick him up at the Town hall in Summerville PA. I've googled it, and I don't see a town hall anywhere close to there. Heck. The town only has a population of 525.

Summerville, PA

Definitely small, Even by My experience with small towns, I think there are ones smaller than that, In fact some have a population of 1, But those are almost Ghost Towns, We have half of a 19th Century Ghost Town nearby in Calico, Of course It's a county park(I think It's owned by the county), What became of the other half You say? Some say It's all tied up in KNOTS down at the former Berry Farm in Anaheim CA...

Talk about small towns, Eric's high school graduating class had 16 kids total - and this was pulling from several small towns in the area! Conucopia Wisconsin is still a very sparsely populated area, unless you count deer... then it is heavily populated indeed!

And I see they have their "Fish Lipps Bar and Restaurant" for Steve!

Winning while quietly going off powdered egg.

It reminds me of one I had for breakfast in a London Mac-Dee during the 1980s. It tasted like bleached cardboard.

I thought you were going to say how it reminded you of war and how all you had was powdered eggs during rationing. Probably why powdered eggs are very unpopular in the UK now.

You remind me of powdered eggs and rationing because you have no Salmonella.

Well there are powdered eggs of old and there are ones the US Army would use and I buy the ones the US Army would use, As even without salt and pepper they taste like eggs, But then their stored in a steel can, not in a plastic bag or a cardboard box where the bad taste would come from, So I'm happy and satisfied. Don't knock It, If You haven't tried Honeyville Grains products as they sell more than just eggs.
