In 1903 the SodaStream brand of carbonation makers was launched.

When different concentrated syrups became available in the 1970s and 1980s, drink machines were marketed that could add concentrates to create carbonated drinks in popular flavors. After merging with Soda-Club the company was relaunched as a way to make healthy drinks for kids.

The SodaStream drink maker — a small device that forces carbon dioxide into water –changes water to a taste like soda pop. The system consists of: 1) a machine; 2) a canister of carbon dioxide; and 3) reusable beverage bottles suitable for pressurizing. The bottle, when filled with water, is screwed on to the machine, and with a push of the button ejects compressed CO2 from a canister into the bottle, making sparkling water (also called seltzer). There are a number of flavors which can be used to create regular soft drinks by adding a tiny amount to the bottle of water that has been carbonated. Read the rest of this entry »

A tasty dessert is dirt cake.  It’s often served at parties for children.  Kids love it because it resembles dirt.  To kids it’s the height of a funny joke.

When kids eat real dirt instead of a dirt cake it can be cause for alarm.  This could be due to mental retardation.  It’s also dangerous.  If there has recently been animal feces in the dirt a child could develop an infestation of parasites.  Dirt may also contain toxins.  Sometimes children ingest small amounts of dirt.  But for others it’s an obsession.  Anemia can cause this behavior.  Anemia is blood with too little iron.  In such a case a vitamin or supplement that contains iron will help the child kick the habit.

When red and white wine sales are steadily dwindling around Europe, what could the answer be? Mix them both together to make rosé says the EU.

Rosé wine has been produced for decades all around the world and there are a number of different ways to produce it, all of which take great care and refined processes. The most common way is to follow the “nobler” tradition of crushing red grapes and bleeding the red colouring, or tannin, from the mixture before it can stain into the wine. This produces a lovely rose-coloured appearance and a light glow. Read the rest of this entry »

Soda water, or carbonated water, is also referred to as sparkling water, and is plain water to which carbon dioxide gas has been added. It is the predominant ingredient of most “soft drinks.”. Carbonic acid — soda pop — results from the process of carbonation.

If one takes a seltzer bottle filled with water and then “charges” it with carbon dioxide, the result is club soda — or, soda water. Club soda can be the same as plain carbonated water; however, it is possible for small amounts of table salts and sodium trace minerals to be present. Such additives sometimes make the taste of home made soda water somewhat salty. In some areas the process occurs very naturally and issues in carbonated mineral water. Read the rest of this entry »

Back in the 1960s, no self-respecting parent would dream of trying to do anything in the kitchen without first putting on a cooking apron. In those days it wasn’t cheap to buy clothes or keep them clean, so it was madness not to protect them when working in the kitchen. But by the end of that decade things had changed. The cooking apron had begun to symbolise the downtrodden housewife. All of a sudden, being tied to apron strings was no longer cool.

Fast forward to the 21st century. Everyone is watching cooking shows on TV before heading into their refitted kitchens to try out their new-found cooking skills. And TV chefs wear cooking aprons. Once again, the kitchen apron, that enemy of the new woman, is in vogue in a big way. If we want to feel like a “master chef”, all we have to do is put an apron on. What we cook when we wear our cooking aprons is another matter entirely, of course (it all looks so much easier on TV, doesn’t it). Read the rest of this entry »

Now the evenings are closing in, its time for the barbeque to step down and the croc pot to take over.
