Dear Food Experts
I remember flour having the designation of [censored] on the label back in the
'60's (think it was Pillsbury). When I went to look it up I found it
meant
super fine confection - sugar. Does anyone know what the [censored] really
means?

I see [censored] in cartoons all the time... it's hooch (and not
the good stuff)!

Has anyone ever *had* moonshine? I did once when I was a teenager - from a
teaspoon in a mason jar. Fortunately, it was a metal spoon, because a wooden
one would've never made it.

Oooo, mama, that stuff is Heavy-Duty. ( Industrial strength booze - take the
varnish clean off a table : )

Cheers ( *hic*! )

Yep. Smelled like rubbing alcohol! <shrug> I've often wondered if that

Oh, so I hear - they filter it through old car radiators, y'know - dirty,
rusty ones. The stuff can make you go blind, give you tetanus ( and I can't
take tetanus shots ), and kill you with a pickled liver. Sure hope no one
has a recipe for "pickled liver"...

Take one liver
marinade for extended period of time in [censored] Moonshine [censored]
Plan funeral
Turn yellow
Expire

Think I'll go get me some Gatorade ...

oh, no no, my dear. I'm talking good stuff. No wood achohol, pure
filtered etc, top notch stuff. If anyone ever offers you any think
MANY more times than once before taking it. I promise that you won't
be talking for a while if you drink it straight. This ain't the
movies. (don't ask how I know that)
We're talking close to 100% achohol.

Cut it 7 to 9 to 1 and you're in the ball park. We'd mix one gallon
with 7 gallons of punch/whatever and then begin the tasting process.

Still be careful though. Phew.

Excellent stuff. In my college days, we had an all glass still going 24/7
in the basement of the chemistry building. The StillMaster (that's what
we called him any way) was from the hills of Kentucky. He said that he
used his great grampappy's recipe. Wouldn't tell anyone.

Talk about smoooooooooth. I don't think there are enough "ooooo"s around
to describe it. But boy, what a kick? Better not be sitting down when
you take a swig, or you won't be getting up.
