Trying to get the perfect balance of ingredients in one bite while eating a salad. It can't just be me......

use chopsticks. with a fork, once you take a stab, it's too hard to release if you stab too much so you're committed to the bite. with chopsticks, you can grab and release until balance is reached.

and dressing on the side.

Sounds like the opposite of a first world problem.
My tap won't give me the runs....I hope.

Friend's kid went to South America on a college trip. The short story, she got some bad water and ended up with fecal matter in her blood stream. A miracle she didn't die.

Not at the office. Building was built in the 40's and the water tastes like it's the original line. I like the everpure we have at the house.

You've got to make it to 90ish just to laugh at her though.:p

If I understand correctly, the flouride in tap water isn't meant to help with oral hygiene. It's meant to kill deadly microbes.

Worse, you apparently don't own a French press.
