What’s in your refrigerator (and freezer)?
1. Anything alcoholic? beer, wine, bottle of champagne?
Right now there is one, almost empty bottle of vodka, 1 bottle of Apple Pucker, and 1 bottle of Mixed Berry Pucker
2. Any guilty pleasures? Anything chocolate? Any ice cream?
Nope, I have chocolate but it’s not in the fridge.
3. Any really old bottles of condiments?
Yeah, there are probably several. Yellow mustard comes to mind.
4. Frozen pizza? Other frozen quick dinners?
Frozen pizza
5. Anything actually rotten or moldy?
If anything, a red or green bell pepper gone moldy in the crisper.
6. What do you have in your fridge that the rest of us probably
don’t? Green curry paste, tamarind extract, Thai chili hot sauce, ground flaxseed, a couple thousand live mealworms.
Haha, mealworms?! I’m interested in who’s chomping on those. Oh and I’m a flaxseed nut too.
The mealworms are for feeding wild birds. Eastern Bluebird in particular. Though I have come across some recipes that use ground dried mealworms… like a flour for cookies. They say it has a nutty flavor. I wouldn’t be opposed to eating cookies made with it.
Some people believe that mealworms could be the protein source of the future, as the human population grows and raising traditional protein sources requires excessive resources.
Maybe I’ll have to try making those cookies…
Happy First TMI Tuesday!
Thanks!
6. The answer was going along so yummy…I was almost tasting a fantastic Thai dish. Then you mentioned the mealworms…good gawd I almost threw up!
I don’t even want to know. Shhhh! Don’t say. Enough. I need mental bleach now.

Well, some authentic Thai dishes have the creepy crawlies in them.
My fridge is looking pretty bare right now. So my answers to this post would be pretty boring.
Do you have a pet Eastern Bluebird, or do you feed it to the wild? And worms in the fridge? Eww.
Nah, I’d never try to keep one. I feed the wild ones and they procreate in the nestboxes I have put up for them. The worms go dormant in the cold fridge so, they don’t get out of the container…. and they’re grubs actually 😉
