My local mini mart buys a 6 pack of lighters for $1 from them and sells them for $1 apiece. Figures.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand...back to yogurt. Hey Stu , Do you have Dollar Tree stores where you live? If so, tell your wife I found some plastic containers there that work in the incubator ($1 each, of course). Dollar Tree, Dollar General, we've got em. Thanks for the heads up, although I think Yo (aka Mrs. Gurt) only uses glass(?). I'll ask her. Back to the yogurt maker, Johanna says the plastic containers are good if you're doing some pickling/fermenting type stuff. I forget why

Ok, it's because the metal lids of the glass jars interact negatively with the picklied/fermented food stuffs.

That pickling method is called Kimchi.

I eat some form of Kimchi every day. For years and years and years. There are many different types. Good stuff.

I used to travel to Korea quite often, and although it's cold AF there in the winter, I preferred it. I coined the phrase, "Everything that stinks is frozen." They have open sewers running through trenches in the streets even in the big cities....it's gross. Edit: Of course, things aren't much better in the Hobo Factory they call San Francisco.

How long has it been since you have been there? I'd have to check my passport, but it's been quite a few years now.
