Yes I know what a reducing Sugar is, the ring breaks ot the weakest bond between the O-Carbon 1. It yields a H to C5 and a double bond created between C1 and the O.
Why can this not happen under alkeline conditions of the Sucrose molecule?
By adding acid, what makes it happen then?

Many Many Thanks....

Breakable thinning truth filled with lies,
Excuses drown actions
Smirk on face, hit angry places.
Lie in front of me, turn stab my back.
Twist and scratch at my soul
Break, break what was told…
Fatigue in eyes, tears come on …
Force to hold,
Just let go…
All but a nightmare unfold…

I admire people who stand up for what they think is wrong but if it has only to do for health reasons shouldn't a diet that offers healthy veggies and meats be considered? The mediterranean diet offers the best of both worlds. Why does all meat get a bad rap from vegetarians?

Omega-3 fatty acids reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. Why do vegetarians attack with this meat kills nonsense?

Turkey - Is one of the leanest meats and good source of protein. Turkey is Rich in B vitamins and zinc and a great source of tryptophan a brain boosting nutrient. Like chicken it's a very healthy meat

Got this from a friend, don't know how old it is or how long it has been going around. Hope it makes you laugh and if you heard it before I hope you laugh as hard this time as you did the 1st time you read it. Enjoy!!

TEXAS CHILI COOK-OFF

Please take time to read this slowly. If you pay attention to the first two judges, the reaction of the third judge is even better. For those of you who have lived in Texas, you know how true this is. They actually have a Chili Cook-off about the time Halloween comes around. It takes up a major portion of a parking lot at the San Antonio City Park. Judge #3 was an inexperienced Chili taster named Matt, who was visiting from Springfield, IL.

Matt: "Recently, I was honored to be selected as a judge at a chili cook-off. The original person called in sick at the last moment and I happened to be standing there at the judge's table asking for directions to the Coors Light truck, when the call came in. I was assured by the other two judges (Native Texans) that the chili wouldn't be all that spicy and, besides, they told me I could have free beer during the tasting, so I accepted."

Here are the scorecard notes from the event:

CHILI #1 - MIKE'S MANIAC MONSTER CHILI...
Judge #1 -- A little too heavy on the tomato. Amusing kick.

Judge #2 -- Nice, smooth tomato flavor. Very mild.

Judge #3 (Matt) -- Holy s**t, what the hell is this stuff? You could remove dried paint from your driveway. Took me two beers to put the flames out. I hope that's the worst one. These Texans are crazy.

CHILI #2 - AUSTIN'S AFTERBURNER CHILI...
Judge #1 -- Smokey, with a hint of pork. Slight jalapeno tang.

Judge #2 -- Exciting BBQ flavor, needs more peppers to be taken seriously.

Judge #3 -- Keep this out of the reach of children. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to taste besides pain. I had to wave off two people who wanted to give me the Heimlich maneuver. They had to rush in more beer when they saw the look on my face.

CHILI #3 - FRED'S FAMOUS BURN DOWN THE BARN CHILI.
Judge #1 -- Excellent firehouse chili. Great! kick.

Judge #2 -- A bit salty, good use of peppers.

Judge #3 -- Call the EPA. I've located a uranium spill. My nose feels like I have been snorting Drano. Everyone knows the routine by now. Get me more beer before I ignite. Barmaid pounded me on the back, now my backbone is in the front part of my chest. I'm getting s**t-faced from all of the beer.

CHILI #4 - BUBBA'S BLACK MAGIC...
Judge #1 -- Black bean chili with almost no spice. Disappointing.

Judge #2 -- Hint of lime in the black beans. Good side dish for fish or other mild foods, not much of a chili.

Judge #3 -- I felt something scraping across my tongue, but was unable to taste it. Is it possible to burn out taste buds? Sally, the beer maid, was standing behind me with fresh refills. That 300-LB woman is starting to look HOT... just like this nuclear waste I'm eating! Is chili an aphrodisiac?

CHILI #5 - LISA'S LEGAL LIP REMOVER...
Judge #1 -- Meaty, strong chili. Cayenne peppers freshly ground, adding considerable kick. Very impressive.

Judge #2 -- Chili using shredded beef, could use more tomato. Must admit the cayenne peppers make a strong statement.

Judge #3 -- My ears are ringing, sweat is pouring off my forehead and I can no longer focus my eyes. I farted and four people behind me needed paramedics. The contestant seemed offended when I told her that her chili had given me brain damage. Sally saved my tongue from bleeding by pouring beer directly on it from the pitcher. I wonder if I'm burning my lips off. It really pisses me off that the other judges asked me to stop screaming. Screw those rednecks.

CHILI #6 - VERA'S VERY VEGETARIAN VARIETY...!
Judge #1 -- Thin yet bold vegetarian variety chili. Good balance of spices and peppers.

Judge #2 -- The best yet. Aggressive use of peppers! , onions and garlic. Superb.

Judge #3 -- My intestines are now a straight pipe filled with gaseous, sulfuric flames. I s**t on myself when I farted and I'm worried it will eat through the chair. No one seems inclined to stand behind me except that Sally. Can't feel my lips anymore. I need to wipe my a*s with a snow cone.

CHILI #7 - SUSAN'S SCREAMING SENSATION CHILI...
Judge #1 -- A mediocre chili with too much reliance on canned peppers.

Judge #2 -- Ho hum, tastes as if the chef literally threw in a can of chili peppers at the last moment. **I should take note that I am worried about Judge #3. He appears to be in a bit of distress as he is cursing uncontrollably.

Judge #3 -- You could put a grenade in my mouth, pull the pin, and I wouldn't feel a thing. I've lost sight in one eye, and the world sounds like it is made of rushing water. My shirt is covered with chili, which slid unnoticed out of my mouth. My pants are full of lava to match my shirt. At least during the autopsy, they'll know what killed me. I've decided to stop breathing, it's too painful. Screw it; I'm not getting any oxygen anyway. If I need air, I'll just such it in through the 4-inch hole in my stomach.

CHILI #8 - BIG TOM'S TOENAIL CURLING CHILI...
Judge #1 -- The perfect ending, this is a nice blend chili. Not too bold but spicy enough to declare its' existence.

Judge #2 -- This final entry is a good, balanced chili. Neither mild nor hot. Sorry to see that most of it was lost when Judge #3 farted, passed out, fell over and pulled the chili pot down on top of himself. Not sure if he's going to make it. Poor feller, wonder how he'd have reacted to really hot chili?

Judge #3 -- No Report

My ex husband died last July....he was living with my son (his stepson) because his own son and daughter didn't want anything to do with him, even on his birthday and holidays....he left a beat up boat and an old jeep. In 2005 he packed up all his belongings from the house he was living in, and moved to PA where he lived for a year; he became so sick he had to move in with his son. Things didn't work out at all so my son went and got him, with all his belongings. There was a lot less stuff coming back with him then had gone up with him a year before. This was 2006. He died a month later. His daughter and son-in-law have begun harassing us about my ex's belongings that they claim belong to them. They have not had anything to do with us for 11 months. Right after he died my son and my husband packed everything that we had that belonged to my ex and delivered it to his daughter. Now they claim we have kept things and they have a lawyer and plan to sue....what are our rights???

Any suggestions for easy recepies. The catch is we don't eat vegies(except potatoes or tomatoe sauce), chicken or seafood.
Is there a website for beginner cooks?
or kid friendly recepies ... since, we don't eat a lot of the poplular stuff etc.
