Like, I get comments from people telling me it’s weird I always try to peel potatoes like I am trying to make the worlds longest 1-piece potato peel. To me it feels way for efficient and fun to continu down a potato in 1 peel, while circling around it, instead of randomly scraping a hundred different pieces of peel off and having to reintroduce the cutter knife to the potato for every piece.
I was a bartender for a bit.
It’s normal for coworkers to complain about picky/annoying guests.
A coworker came up to me:
Me: Was he… Old?
Me: kidney stones. That mans probably had a few, and he’s done with em. Give him a sidecar of fresh lemon juice (something we had on hand), you’ll make his day.
What does lemon do to kidney stones?
My guess is it helps dissolve them?
A quick bit of research shows that citric acid prevents kidney stones from forming, actually.
I assumed it was common knowledge but yeah, y’all. If you wanna avoid kidney stones, lemon juice is the ticket.
