@FurryFace I expect the price to go way up before Thanksgiving and stay that way till Easter, they always raise the prices about the time people start cooking for the holidays, butter too

@FurryFace If I was smart I'd buy about 20 dozen and separate them freezing the yolks and whites separately and using them to cook with or make scrambled eggs. Did that once when my uncle worked for a grocery store and the egg-delivery man dropped a case (12 dozen) and broke most of them. He gave them to my uncle. We made angel food cakes and used them in cornbread and for scrambled eggs.

@cherokeepatti you gotta be rich to buy in bulk

@FurryFace $20 at that price and it will save at least that much. I do cherries and ground beef that way when i find it on sale..

@cherokeepatti cherries and ground beef ? you got weird tastes , lol
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@FurryFace hey I don't freeze them together. Frozen cherries make a good snack when they aren't in season and they cost about twice as much if you buy them frozen in the stores
FurryFace · 61-69, M
@cherokeepatti oh ok thought you were making a cherry and ground beef meal or something
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@FurryFace Actually researchers have found benefits in putting ground up cherries in ground beef and cooking hamburgers with it. They said they've tried it in school lunches for an experiment. I might try it and see how it is.

@cherokeepatti like my nieces peanut butter on hotdogs , they were being silly then years later i brought it up and they were like we did what ?

@FurryFace I would love to plant some of those sour cherries that grow on bushes, they have a lot of them in Canada and said to be very heavy yields on them, they'll grow down here. I prefer the taste of them to the sweet ones now. Bought some in California, they don't even sell them here.

@cherokeepatti i never bought cherries
cherokeepatti · 61-69, F
@FurryFace wow they are so good. We didn't buy them much when I was younger, the prices were too high. I found a huge wild cherry tree on the side of a farm road near my grandpa's village when I was a kid and ate a lot of them one time. Really good. We'd have cherry pie a couple times a year and maybe two cherries would be in a can of fruit cocktail. They started getting cheaper maybe 20 years ago when they had a bumper crop I'd buy a lot of them. Last two summers unbelievably cheap. I froze a lot last two summers till I didn't have room in the freezer

@cherokeepatti reminds me when i bought a huge tub of Vanilla Ice cream it took up almost all the space in my fridge freezer
