I've noticed the strangest thing about men who hang out in bars a lot.
It seems they have only one of two reasons to be there.
They have no wife to go home to... or they do!
Processed coconutIn 1875, black American inventor Alexander P. Ashbourne received a patent for a "Process Preparing Cocoa-nut for Domestic Use" (U.S. No. 163,962). The patent describes the process by taking any quantity of coconuts and pare them. The meat is then grated or otherwise pulverized, and is then passed through fine sieves, hot boiling water being added at the same time. The meat is then cooked with hot steam for 3 to 4 hours, then pressed dry. Sugar is added in the ratio of one pound of sugar to three pounds of coconut, plus a small quantity of fine stick cinnamon to preserve the flavour. The compound is dried gradually and packed. |
