Some tips for your kitchen 👊
Discussion
Number 1 is so insanely obvious it hurts my brain when I see people still using these. Mostly a boomer problem tbh
would you also say aluminum foil leeches in to your food if you're just storing it in the fridge or only when cooking with it?
Glad to see you here fam
Parchment paper mostly is made with PFAS too...like teflon!!! And it won't be marked on the packaging...
Yeah nobody should be listening to this guy. Being completely factual vs factual complete. One is easy, the other is hard.
Oh wow. Is there anything we haven't contaminated? No wonder we're dying younger... again.
Sad but true. And we are not only dying younger, we are also dying sicker.
Most things made of paper and cardboard that are water and grease repellent are treated with PFAS. Unfortunately. This also includes paper straws, to-go paper cups, pizza boxes, etc. Even packaging that is labelled as recycled or compostable can contain PFAS and so these toxins also get directly from the compost into the soil and into the water, animals, plants and thus also into humans.
Thank you for these tips!
Sending this to my mom NOW! Thanks nostr:npub14am887cf6kvwkce89nt7dsw3v9qrrn0uppxyvr6a2jd7xdwuwccqwnudp2 !
How can you tell if the parchment paper you are using is bleached or not? Nothing on the product box indicated whether it was or not. Is it just by colour? I notice some parchment is darker than others.
Aluminum in itself is not the problem. You shouldn't have acids on it and then fry/grill food. You can use aluminum foil for transport without any problems.
Thanks for posting more often on Nostr!!! 🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
Didn't know you were here in nostr. Amazing to see you here ..
How about avocado oil for heating/cooking?
If you have to use plantbased oils to cook avocado oil is a good choice. But beware often times it's mixed with seed oils. Better choice would be coconut oil imo. But beware to not heat them to their smokepoint. Nothing beats animal fats though
Great
Followed!
Number 5 every Cleaner. Replace it with Vinegar Cleaner. Just 2 Part 5% clear Vinegar on 1 Part Water that's all you need to clean nearly everything. Put it in a Glas Spray Bottle so it's easier to use, also for the wood cutting board. Sometimes I also wash my dish with it. It's way better for you and the environment. And it safes money which you can put in your stack
The tinfoil and plastic cutting board had me shook.
What about coconut oil?
This Chinese New Year take time to make these simple changes.
Was impressed with your Heart and Soil packaging. 👍
🙏
Glad you're here Paul, f*** the technocracy. I've followed your work for many years and can confidently say you've improved my life significantly, both in health and wealth (Saifedean interview), but I'll never give up the morning coffee! Many blessings to you, thank you
Once I wrote an article about PFAS here on #yakihonne ⤵️

Noticing no mention of Avocado oil, which seems to be all the rage as a cooking oil that isn't a seed oil that is also not saturated. Any data on problems with this?
I definitely use coconut oil a bit as well, and have started collecting tallow from the beef hearts I cook in my slow cooker (crazy how cheap these sell for...), but with my blood pressure and LDL where they are I do usually look for a bit lower saturated fat intake if only to raise my HDL:LDL ratio.
All ears if I've got it all backward here -- nutrition is definitely not my strongest suit.
Thanks Paul!
Love seeing the Vitamix with the stainless steel container in the back!
I still use nonstick occasionally, especially in appliances that came with proprietary non-stick pans (Zojirushi rice cookers, best in the market but unfortunately non-stick), but I've been switching to using stainless steel and cast iron pans.
I prefer parchment paper, only occasionally use foil primarily as a cover or something.
Peanut oil I use along with avocado/coconut/olive oils and animal fats. I'm also good with palm oil, another fruit oil.
Fully agree with the cutting boards. Wood is king!
