pickling update: it'd something like 2 weeks later and I popped open my pickles. they're already the best pickles I've had and I didn't even use fresh dill or the right pickling salt (used Morton's Iodized, but the pickles are still crunchy and not really discolored). I did use chili flakes and garlic cloves. also using this post to put esiann on botulism watch bc I don't know if I used enough vinegar.

gonna try green beans and cauliflower next.

this is a grreat post love it

Antediluvian/adversarial split


i saw aerial pink and i had a blast. i refuse to ever hear it's music fromt he studio. i've never heard it before or after and despite my fun time i never want to hear it. mr. pink i salso a huge asshole Lmao

I made my first batch of pickles ever today but I did not sterilize the container, I just hand-washed it. will be monitoring their pickling over the next few weeks making sure they don't grow mold.

u should be ok. i never sterilize anything. just wash with good ol soap.

when i didnt drop out by grade 10

I had a similar experience when I had my lip pierced, they made me wear a beard net but then I had to quit cause it didn't cover it and I wasn't ready to take it out and become an adult yet (was only 19 leave me alone).

tell us about the fucked up things you saw in east hastings. for those who dont know it is the vancouver crackhead street.

The truth's wedding? We were talking about how he went from super conservative to liberal not long ago.


Would be really cool to travel through the eastern parts of Canada. I wanna go on a crazy native reserve

Just going to the easy parts of mexico cancun, tulum, playa del carmen, merida, isla mujeres etc cause we are meeting friends over there. then round america then iceland then moving to london.

i was holed up in peurto vallarta and i didn't like it.  i never went to any of those places but then again my idea of a good time travelling is hanging out on a beach sharing a bottle of wine with whoever wants to chat and riding in the back of a strangers pickup truck so there's that. i'm sure those places will be nice if you have money to get trashed and stay in a nice place (which at the time i didnt)
iceland sounds so dope

the most fucked up thing i saw was probably a dude beating his dog. i didn't like that.
another was when i forgot to close the gate and some guy thought our lot was a prime place to have a hooker go down on him. other times just dudes with needles hanging around.

once i saw a guy get clocked by a bus's rearview mirror. i think he died. the whole neighborhood was screaming and running up and down the streets. it was wild.

have you cured olives before?

i wish, we don't have olives here. i met a girl who was trying to grow an olive tree on the island but that's about as close as i got to it. maybe one day......... *looks longingly into the distance

Sb's always got the jams. ya did you take a break from the internet? you disappeared off facebook i noticed. ill keep those cities in mind if i get a chance but i got a pretty busy schedule as is. you doing anymore travel anytime soon? also isnt east hastings crazy! cant believe such a pretty city would let a place like that exist.


relevant: I worked in a factory when I was younger for a while making pastries and christmas pies and the like. it was pretty gross. a lot of dirty people not wearing gloves touching fresh food. it was  a major brand too.

i work ed in a dessert factory (In the heart of east hastings BTW, our back lot was facing an allyway and i saw all sorts of weird/horrible shit closing) which was the opposite as the ones you and fucked up wastoid describe. it was so clean and perfect  but the best part was i had huge sideburns at the time and i had to wear a beard net but the beard net didn't cover them at all, but the quality assurance guy made me wear it anyways. one thing tho, no matter how clean you are, you're gonna have tons of people SWEAT into your bread. this is really funny to me.

i'm travelling in may to see MARYLAND DEATHFEST. i think some cool people here live in maryland (Hundley??)? please post if you do. from there i plan on probably just checking out the east coast of canada until august where i will go to xXTheTruthXxs wedding if everything goes to plan (!!!!!!!!!!). after that i will either settle in an eastern province or try to get to south america again

where are you going in mexico???

im back on fb btw

i will be examining my pickles for black ooze now btw

i worked at a pickle factory once. long story short i don't eat pickles anymore.

can you tell us the most fucked up thing about it

Edmonton winter is savage! I was in Vancouver for the whole year cause I moved to Edmonton and hated it but now I'm just back to visit my aunt before taking off to Mexico tommorow. You're a hard man to track down haha ghastly fucklord is quite difficult to find suitable google results for.


tell me what you are listening to at the moment


p.s: i ended up interviewing vintersorg about being a schoolteacher - http://noisey.vice.com/blog/a-conversation-with-vintersorg-a-black-metal-schoolteacher

i am completely inexperienced with pickled/fermented things. (i've never even eaten a pickle!) i think the only such thing i have ever had was pickled ginger, from sushi places. what exactly is the appeal of this process? what even is sauerkraut?? how would pickling work on human flesh??? i don't know anything.

OMG
yes please eat a pickle (or make one)
they are a wonder

sauerkaut is pickled cabbage

if it were me i would pickle human flesh by covering it in salt and leaving it under my sink. i dont eat meat so my knowledge of meats is very low. but i think thats how it would work. but some meats like salami chorizo, pepperoni are all fermented so if you were to pickle a  human it would probably taste liek one of those maybe??

the appeal is (to me) the idea of a bunch of little microorganisms growing and making your food for you, so its like you can have a pet (or six million), a cool ecosystem,  and lunch at the same time WITHOUT FEELING BAD. and it's always different every time you make it. and its just downright tasty.

SB I was just in Vancouver and now in Edmonton

damn son if you come back hit me mattgomery at g mail dot com. hope you're enjoying edmonton winter
what's up Btw
btw Whats Up Faust havent "seen" you in a long time ! ! !
also idgaf about post counts but i am partially blind and screw up the captcha like four times a post TY

Also sauerkraut/pickles you buy at a store kind of sucks, its usually too salty///boring + they don't even forment it right, they just use vinnegar and weird chemicals and stuff and doesnt have a bunch of cool little bugs inside that make it change over time///they might be good for you. if you make it yourself it is _Beyond Dope_  because you can put whatever you want in it. i put beets and herbs in mine and sometimes carrots and other things. and garlic. IT IS IMPORTANT YOU SLICE A CLOVE OF GARLIC IN because it will be so good. and it will be a deep purple with the beets.

its really easy to make just  chop and shred all your veggies, add some salt (however much you like) and CRuNCH THEM with most if not ALL of your might. the veggies will bleed juice and can put them in a jar. fil the jar up with filtered, salted water so the veggies are submerged. now you have to keep them under the water if they get up for air they will grow MOLDS which aren't that bad because you can just scrape them out  but they are kind of gross and people will come over and see mold on your jars and think you are gross too.

for keeping them under water i like to take a zip lock bag and fill it with the water you used to fill up the jar and plop it on top of the veggies. not in the fridge. now you just need to wait. if you see it bubbling that means you did it right!!! wait a week or two or three and devour it

if i can find a big jar somewhere today i will make baby eggplant pickles...truly fucked i know. ill telll u all how it goes

posting for the cred but not for the rape jokes

sauerkraut??? dude whoever you are, u r my man... do they smell like that (fermented shit) even if they're succesful?? what other stuff have you done?? tell me more!!! shit!!!! have you tried kefir?

the smell is noticeable if it spills out of the jar (it has a good chance of doing so if you fill it up too much) and when you open it. it's not terrible but it might take awhile to get used to it and you may think it's bad (i thought i f****d up my first batch until i put it in my mouth). then if you make a real bad batch...u will know the real bad smell...

ive mostly done various veggies up until this point with various successes and failures. i haven't had kefir but i read a recipe for it. i've never tried it tho

im also sorry to hear that hundley coincidentally i was thinking today, i want to donate my body to cannibals. maybe liek an organ donor card you can carry in your wallet? All my good pieces can be sent to those who will use them. i will give you one if i make one

hey Saltw glad to be back im making 2 jars of Beet Sauerkraut. i made some jars before and it was the best sauerkraut ever and it made my place smell like a cabbage. now im thinking about making some mead so i  can join the sca,

The other month i made rutabega kraut and it smelled really gross (Beyond N.A.S.T.Y.) and it was mushy too so i threw it out.

tell me about the time you left something on the counter (And Ate It)

Also post your tips and tricks for the rest of us TY!
