For me, the 4th pot of coffee in the day is often gastroigneous.
I don't understand it because I use the same coffee beans, filters, water, pot, cup,
and the electricity comes from the same dam on the Columbia River all day long.
The water is not pasteurized, the filters are tan, not bleached ...so they shouldn't be the culprits.

I have noticed that the sun is in a different place...
maybe it is shinning on the pot at a different angle as it perks.
Any other ideas ?

Yes. One is too many, ten's not enough.

It was cute. It's shaped like a turtle. How do you make a burger shaped like a turtle? First, you don't kill any turtles. It said so on the menu. Then you take six ounces of ground beef. You surround that in cheese. Then you make a lattice out of ... bacon. 10 slices of thick bacon. Oh, and because it's still not really looking like a turtle, you arrange three hot dogs to make the legs and head. And serve it all on a LeBus roll.

There may have been some mashed potatoes involved too. I forget. Call that traumatic forgetting. I was totally overwhelmed by the description.

Please tell me where. I gotsta know, I gotsta know!

The solution? Moar bacon! "Hair of the hog", and so on.

Maybe you need to switch bacon.

Kosher beef bacon - aka beef fry. I used to have this growing up, but have not had some in decades.

Turkey bacon - Shoprite carries the widest selection, from generic chopped and pressed to Godshall's Turkey bacon which is thick cut and probably better than pork bacon. I think they also carry duck bacon and turkey scrapple.

Here's an article with alternatives.

Duck bacon may actually be good, duck haz the aorta grease.

The Blue Dog Pub, Lansdale.

Amazing beer availability that only keeps getting better and more interesting. The Turtle Burger is a special, not a regular menu item. Don't know how long it will be available. However, I can tell you that they've had the meatloaf pannini as a special since December, so the turtle could have some surprising staying power.

Lamp, caffeine is a bowel irritant. It's no wonder enough coffee kicks back on you; it does me too.

DanaC · 03-17-2012, 06:30 AM

Man...I have like 4 mugs of coffee just to start my day...

Aliantha · 03-17-2012, 07:10 PM

Just one for me, occasionally I have two, but usually I don't have any more for the rest of the day.

Well, hopefully you are at least following the strict Martini and cigarette protocol designed to reduce birth weight and thus, make delivery easier.

Aliantha · 03-17-2012, 08:07 PM

haha...nope. None of mine have been very large so far anyway. Just average. 8 pound 1 oz was the largest. The other two were 7 pound 4.

Stormieweather · 03-17-2012, 11:19 PM

My first thought was the nitrites in the bacon is causing you tummy issues. Do you have trouble with lunch meats or ham?

You might want to try turkey bacon, Applegate makes a good one. It's not the same as pork bacon, but it does grow on you. We have been eating it for 2 years now and prefer it over anything else, even pork bacon.

Oh and I usually don't drink coffee by the cup, much too small!!

I use huge mugs, carafes, or thermos's (that tense looks weird) to carry my caffeinated beverage around. 1 full pot a day for just me, or I feel deprived.

footfootfoot · 03-18-2012, 01:12 AM

nahh, it's not the nitrates, I think it is just too rich.
