Pretzels and other snacks sometimes have a lot of loose salt or seasoning laying on the bottom of the bag. With scissors, snip close to a corner of the bag. Shake and release the salt through that hole. Then open the bag and fill your serving bowl.

Test for freshness before you crack the shell.  Believe it, this is easy on the nose if you find a spoiled one.  Fill a cup or bowl with plain water. Place the egg in it.  If it floats, it's a bad one...think "belly up." If it sits on the bottom, it's a good one and deserves your love.

Why does that happen? A spoiled egg emits gas within it's shell.

Baking mixes have a small amount of oil in them that will get rancid.  So pay attention to expiration dates and keep your stock rotated.

Canned New Zealand butter, commonly found in the Bahamas, is equivalent to 1/2 pound. (Scaramouche)

Olive oil. Store bulk oil in the fridge and decant into a smaller bottle for daily use, which is always fresh.

Easy to solve. The smelly culprits are usually food packages. They're non-organic, so they can't go directly back to nature with the fish bones. What to do?  Stuff the stinkin' offenders into an empty jar and cap it or into a zip bag.  Store it outside on the deck until your next trash run.

No bugs, no odor.

Bell Pepper, chopped.

Cheese.  It's not perfect, as some thawed cheese has a crumbling tendency. Best bet against the crumbles is to thaw thoroughly to room temp before opening the package.

Cookie Dough. Make your favorite recipes at provisioning time when all ingredients are likely to be onboard. Freeze the dough in zip-bags.

Cream Cheese.

Marinated Meat.  When freezing meat, add some marinade to the zip-bag before tossing it in the freezer. The meat will self-marinate when thawing.

Meatloaf.  Make enough for one or more meals. Place each raw portion into a sealed zip-bag.  Later: Thaw and bake.

Milk.  Afterwards, shake thawed milk vigorously before opening, to blend the solids back into the liquid.

Onion, chopped.

Whole Roasted Chicken. (Bought hot at supermarket delis.) Allow it to cool to room temp. Transfer chicken and it's juice into a zip bag and freeze. Later, thaw and heat for 20-30 mins.  Save the wishbone!

True: The food editor of a well known cruising magazine wrote an article about warm drinks for cold weather. While prefacing the article with responsible advice about drinking and boating.

The featured recipe (to serve onboard, of course) was a coffee drink. The final ingredient is ONE CUP of Brandy to serve four.

"Heat all ingredients except coffee in a saucepan. When steaming, ignite with a long match and allow to burn for 30 seconds. (The flame will start out large and get smaller.) Pour the flaming liquid into four cups that are 3/4 full of hot strong coffee."
