Excellent research! Thanks.

@kdfrawg One canned product I go out of my way to find is Amadeus brand camembert or brie. Open the can and a plain ordinary mold-ripened is revealed. Plus, sometimes Aldi stocks giant Greek-style baked beans that contain mostly beans, with just enough sauce to fill the spaces between.

I have no idea, I didn't actually witness this.

I think I can see a problem here……Image

Weather extremes. It hit 42°C here with associated fire weather warnings. Now the cool change has started we have another warning, this time for damaging squally winds up to 90 kph. Now 26°

Eucalyptus regnans (mountain ash) is a native tree, the world’s tallest flowering plant, often reaching 280 feet tall.
Today I bought some ham which had been smoked using wood from the mountain ash species.
It’s very tasty indeed.

The expected cool change is coming through, temperature is down to 26°C now.

Getting hot out there. Image

41°C outside. I was wondering why my reverse-cycle A/C wasn’t pushing air as fast as it should. Turns out the filters were half-clogged. A quick hit with the vacuum cleaner fixed that issue.
Damned hot outside but cool inside now.

Extremely tropical here just now. It’s 39°C and expected to hit 41 or 42 later before a major cool change tonight.
