Huh, did you know you should put soft cheeses in the freezer before shredding them? I freeze blocks of hard cheese when I want to crumble them, but never thought about mozzarella being easier to shred when frozen.

I did not know this, and what a great idea!!

I have a question, and since we’re talking about hunting, I am asking in this thread.
Is it possible for everyone to become vegetarian? The dairy farmers are already losing their generations old farms because of non dairy options. Now people want to do without meat. Along with the impact on the farmers, how can we live on vegetables when California is burning up, and climate change is making everything too dry, too wet, too cold or too hot? Sometimes all of the above in one week!
So I am honestly asking, can we rely on vegetables? As far as “growing” animals, cows, pigs and chickens can survive on grass, and whatever we throw in their pen (they aren’t vegetarian, and we know it!).

Apologies for chiming into this conversation late. Haven't checked my messages until just now. Here's my philosophy on it.

I believe that we are all stewards of the planet. As stewards of the planet, we have the ability to use whatever resources are around us for our needs, like meat and vegetables. however, as stewards, we also have the responsibility of maintaining those resources for future generations.

Here's a good example. You all know about the food chain. Lets assume that the deer eats the grass, and the bear eats the deer. If we humans overuse the deer, it would endanger everything else, like the bear. The grass will grow wild.

Yes, we have the right to use the deer as stewards of the planet, but we should not overuse them to the point where it actually endangering other species. We have the responsibility to maintain the planet for our survival, and the animals.

In fact, if one species grows too fast, while another grows very slow, causing an imbalance, sometimes it's necessary to eliminate some of the animals of a species for the benefit of the entire ecosystem.

There's nothing wrong with being vegetarian, I'm not vegetarian, obviously from my hunting pictures.

To sum it up, we are the stewards of the planet Earth, who have great power to use the Earth for our needs, but also have the great responsibility to maintain the Earth.

I have a strong belief in this. It's not religious, it's just a strong belief.

On a side note, I found this in my pantry. I may try it out if I can get a hold of sashimi-grade fish. There's a place in Boise that sells them.
