Someone who gets those produce boxes delivered gave my brother two full
boxes. They were going away and couldn't use it all up. Now I have a ton of
potatoes and onions. Angela has the same. She took some other things. Not
sure what they'll do with all the broccoli. Now... What to do with them?
They are russet potatoes and yellow onions. I do have a pot roast in the
freezer. I could get some more carrots and make that since our weather is
turning cooler. I love free food!

If I had them I would know what to do with them. We're old
fashioned, Mid-West eaters. Baked potatoes are always good -- lots
of potassium other vitamins and fiber in there. Lots of side dish
recipes. You can boil, bake and mash them Check the Web. Onions?
I'd chop most of them up, lay them on trays, freeze them and then bag
them. Otherwise there are a bunch of onion dishes that use a lot of
them.
Check the Web.

I'm from Wichita. Can't get much more Midwest than that, but we didn't eat a
lot of potatoes.

Toss them like popeye does.
Or, feed the guy in the shed.

It didn't come from the food bank!

The COVID people in Italy were sicker due to their high gluten pasta diet. Potato eating Germans got fewer critical complications.

I have. I also have German friends. I know what they eat. Who invented the
pretzel?

I don't know. It seems like a German word.

LOL, Germans do indeed love their breads. They also do a lot of rice
comparativly (sp?) to much of Europe. That one suprised me when I
found out. I think it was Italy for number 1 and they were 2 or a
close 3rd.

Some radio show vitamin "Doctor" blamed the pasta gluten.

North Koreans did much better. Zero cases.

I wonder what they ate that made them impervious. Maybe kim chi?

You've been listening to Doc. Wallach. He's a quack. Germans are known for
drinking gluten containing beer, and eating gluten containing foods like
Spaetzel, breaded meats. bread, cakes, etc.

A big plate of pasta is comparably a gluten gut fest.

They lied. Whoever have them to you got that produce from a food
bank, they're not CSA boxes if they contain mostly the same stuff
(potatoes and onions) and they're "full". They're "banana boxes",
right? (you'll deny it but I won't believe you).

CSA's don't send people a ton on of just a couple things. And they
couldn't have collected that much without some of it going bad in
the meantime. Unless it came from a food bank...
