The Death and Decay of my Blog

The time has come.....the results are in. AAAAAAAAANNNNDDDDD the winners are........

SALT and VINEGAR! you preserved the piece of potato best of the four preservatives. well done.

And now, the moment for goodbye's has arrived. Goodbye, blog. you've been good to me. Even when I procrastinated posting on you, when I finally got round to it, you still looked nice. But I'm afraid that we have to part. It's for the best. and you can take comfort from the fact that when one thing ends, another starts. Who knows, I might be able to get a social life when this is over, and you might become interesting and up to date. well, we can dream. All the best for your new life, wish me luck for mine.

Goodbye, SRP blog, and good Luck

More lovely research

Some (hopefully) correctly referenced research, and lots more on the way

PETER ZEUTHEN AND LEIF BOGH-SORENSEN (2003) 'The Use of Natural Antimicrobials' . Food Preservation Techniques, 5, 7.



And a really good example of referncing, from the same book.

Time to find some research from peices of paper bound together inside two hard covers. how primitive

Potato it is!

Finally started my experiment. pictures will be forthcoming, of potato, not kiwi, banana or curry paste
