    Eating Perique -- Health Benefits?

    With " did not end well" you mean that he liked it so much that he continued to do that often?? Sounds like this perique idea actually is good!

    Eating Perique -- Health Benefits?

    That could actually be a pretty good idea, I recall that perique has been used as chew before, and could very well be good in snus. Does anyone actually know what perique tastes like when chewed?

    Eating Perique -- Health Benefits?

    Because of perique's fermentation process, it accumulates a ton of good bacteria. So, it must be good to eat. I've thought about mixing it into my smoothies, or just eating it straight. Good for you, and relieves any vitamin N deficiency. Has anybody else done this? Thank. Sent from Ipad.

    I don't see your meer getting marbled like van Cleef's pipe though?

    The Great Meerschaum Cake Experiment

    Seeing this pipe has made me interested in getting a colored waxed pipe. Before I thought that they would stay yellow, and instead of giving the impression of more color, just make the color less likely to be seen.

    The Great Meerschaum Cake Experiment

    The shank now looks a bit darker I guess, but yeah no internal coloring probably. It seems that the heat of the bowl bleaches the more yellow wax and leaves a pure, beautiful white behind.

    The Great Meerschaum Cake Experiment

    B Before this I had no idea that yellow wax because white after smoking it. Gives a nice impression of color though.

    The Great Meerschaum Cake Experiment

    Did the middle one have colored wax? I mean that the wax was yellow instead of the usual white.

    The Great Meerschaum Cake Experiment

    Is the top ones color caused by actual coloring, or just grime and ash stuck in the carvings? It's a very nice pipe by the way Hoosier. But the bottom one looking very colored is just because its wax was colored, and being bleached by the heat?

    Grabow Relics

    Looks like they haven't been drilled at all. But it's easy enough to drill them and put a stem on them anyway.

    FYI that is not "piss", it is always mold. Even if your piss is crystalline, something is fungal about it.

    The Great Meerschaum Cake Experiment

    You can't gain much "experiential knowledge" without experimenting, can you? If everybody accepted blindly what is believed to be common sense or knowledge, then we would still be living in caves and banging rocks together. Questioning things, even without the questioner having professional...

    The Great Meerschaum Cake Experiment

    And even if it breaks, that is just a good reason to commision a beautiful long shank smooth billiard Altinay.

    The Great Meerschaum Cake Experiment

    To be honest, I am a bit afraid of breaking my beloved meer. But I do not think that it will break, which is why I have no qualms about doing this.

    Causes of Raw/irritated/tender Throat from Smoking.

    I don't get the fuss. It's just a sore throat. It will pass, or it won't. Then it might be something that you should get checked out. I get why people don't want to own an estate, it's the same thing as buying second hand clothes etc. But to it being dangerous, that is ridiculous. Even if you...
