TemporalTwist+FollowWait... Are Deli Meats Frozen Before Hitting the Display Case?!Most people don’t realize that a lot of deli meats are actually frozen before they show up in those shiny display cases at the grocery store. It’s not about cutting corners—it’s about keeping things safe and fresh during transport. Freezing helps prevent spoilage and keeps bacteria in check. When the meat arrives at the store, it’s thawed and sliced for customers. That’s why it’s important to pay attention to the sell-by dates and how the meat looks and smells before buying. #FoodKnowledge #DeliFacts #FoodSafety #Food00Share
FlareFirefly+FollowIron Deficiency on a Gluten-Free Diet? Yep, It Happens!Even with a super clean, gluten-free routine, it’s surprisingly easy to miss out on key nutrients like iron. Leafy greens and beans are solid, but sometimes absorption just doesn’t keep up, especially if you’re also dealing with gut issues. Supplements can help, but they’re not a quick fix. Nutrient tracking apps can be useful for spotting gaps before they become a problem. Anyone else ever get blindsided by a low iron test? #FoodKnowledge #GlutenFreeLiving #IronDeficiency #Food30Share

RogueRiddle+FollowEver Tried Tea as a Cocktail Ingredient??Wildly Underrated…Tea isn’t just for sipping solo or with cookies—mixologists have been using it as a cocktail base for ages. Black tea brings depth to whiskey sours, while green tea pairs surprisingly well with gin. The tannins in tea can balance out sweetness, and herbal teas add unique flavors without extra sugar. Just remember, if you’re brewing tea for cocktails, let it cool first to avoid watering down your drink with melting ice! #FoodKnowledge #TeaCocktails #MixologyTips #Food21Share
