      God I worry about the farmers their way of life is under attack (diesel, fertilizer, parts, billy goats gaytes owning THE MOST farmland in the USA, food plants destroyed and farms over 100, etc) as part of the plan to make us all suffer and have shortages and high prices.
      The Government is creating the problems and they ''fix'' the problem with more dystopian measures. Create the problem (like NineElevn) wait the predicted reaction then offer the solution, the solution that benefits them while getting people to think they are on our side its effing twisted. Most seem to have no clue what is coming or why or how which is also very concerning. God help us all. Pray for them and us.

    I slice a banana pepper down one side and clean out the seeds. I cut off the top and the tip of the end. I rinse them and pat them dry. I take steamed soft chicken and lay it down the inside of the pepper. I put some provolone and an italian mx down on top Then I crumble on diced sweet onions. I lay those in a pan and add enchilada sauce. They turn out amazing. Each bite with chicken and cheese with that onion flavoring and a chunk of banana pepper.
    Second favorite use. I'll shred up some cabbage. I'll shred about a half a cup of carrots. I'll shred up two banana peppers. Then I mix in my cole slaw dressing and you have a bit of sweet n sour cole slaw. My niece loves that with a nice steak and potato. I like it with a beef hot dog.

    I went shopping today in a regular supermarket and they were selling peppers with the same spots on them 29 pence each UK or about 40 cents US... I bought 4 and ill just cut that spot out. This isn't normal for the European Union ...usually they'd be rejected....but food shortages and water shortages soon change even the most red taped conglomerate of governments ever known in history. Nothing should be wasted during these times even if you charge 10 cents people would still buy them or donate them to needy people. Just my thoughts though so please don't hate me for sharing 👍Love all you do OCHS Family🙏💖🥰💯 Take care and all the best from the UK 🇬🇧.

      No I like where I live... far more than where I was born. If there was less red tape from the EU as far as the regulated shape and size of fruit and veg then there would be millions of tons of food that would go to feeding people and not end up in landfill sites instead of not earning farmers a single penny. Farmers need our help so I'm quite prepared to pay for less than perfect food... it's the way food naturally grows after all. Have a great Sunday 👍

The way the supply chain all over the earth is shutting down maybe hire all your cousins to do the canning, preserving and pickling.
    Then next year you can sell your own preserves as well. your Gran and Mom seem a top expert in this.
