A coal bbq could work too and most people have one already, you can use it with wood as well.

Even better, you can use a barbecue chimney starter as a kind of rocket stove.

A lot of slipping through the cracks.

An amazing book about this subject is "Vous êtres fous d'avaler ça" (not translated in English unfortunately)

https://www.europeanscientist.com/en/public-health/you-are-crazy-to-eat-this-warns-a-new-book-by-a-former-food-industry-engineer/

It's a former food industry engineer talking about everything he saw or did.

After reading the book I'm now extremely cautious about buying stuff at the supermarket, I'm trying to buy the less transformed stuff as much as possible.

Basically every transformation step is an opportunity for the industrials to hide stuff. Rodent feces mixed in the spices ? No problem, just heat it up to sterilize it, grind it finely so now one can see it and mix it with fresh spices until the proportion of "foreign material" in the mix it under the limit.

I am now only buying the spices whole.

It's two variants of the European socket (type E and type F), nowadays most plugs are compatible with both versions so you can buy either one. Just check your plugs before.

Here is an illustration of both sockets:

I like this part as well:

“I won the parent lottery, the education lottery, the country lottery,” LeBrun told Macleans. “It would be arrogant to say every piece of my ‘success’ was earned, when so much of it was received.”

Played well, this could be a free pass for all the other times the person is late.

Next time they are late they can put on the silver jacket, enter the classroom with a space related excuse:

  • Sorry, the traffic was awful on the asteroid belt
  • My comet was delayed
  • A gravitational anomaly threw me out of the solar system, it took me forever to come back
  • ....
