Sriracha Panich Yellow Chilli Sauce - New low for thai logic or something else?
I just looked up INS260, which is also on the list of contents. It's a preservative and acidity regulator. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Numbering_System_for_Food_Additives 555

MSG occurs naturally in some fruits/veg. The label says no MSG is "added". Maybe that's the explanation.

In his subsequent post he made it clear that he was referring to the healing effect of Earth's natural electricity. Some people believe it.

These are wise words. My only other comment/question is - OP is considering withdrawing his 2,000 Baht each month for Granny. There is no mention that Granny is demanding more, just other family members. Why should Granny suffer due to the greed of others?- Wheelchair-bound Woman in Pattaya Falls Victim to Heartless Thief

I'll do that Owl, thanks. A quick Google tells me that there is only one species of bee that can pollinate vanilla orchids, otherwise it has to be done by hand. The Melipona bee is only found in Mexico. More research needed, but I think I have at least 6 years before the move up country.

I am not planning to move away from Sattahip for a while yet, but my wife has some land near Surin and we will probably move there at some stage. I thought about bee keeping for a hobby/small pocket money. I haven't looked into it seriously yet, but it seems to be a worthwhile way to pass the time.- Police Chief wants the age of criminal responsibility lowered to 12 after the Siam Paragon case debacle
Most recent execution in Thailand was in 2018.- Police Chief wants the age of criminal responsibility lowered to 12 after the Siam Paragon case debacle
The "debacle" in this case was not due to the age of the shooter. The police failed to follow correct procedures, which should have included a psychiatric assessment prior to questioning the boy. This failure resulted in the Youth Court ordering his release. The police chief should have ensured correct procedures, especially in such a serious and high profile case. Blaming his failure on the age of criminal responsibility is just a smoke screen.- Worst Joke Ever 2026
Alas poor Yolk! I knew him well, Horatio ... A quote from Shakespeare's "Omelette". I'll get my coat.- Brexit has completely failed for UK, say clear majority of Britons – poll
I did not suggest that the reason for the Brexit vote was racism. I said that there were some Brexit voters were motivated by racism. It is a fact that racism exists in the UK (probably everywhere else too). Do you think that the majority of UK racists voted to remain?- Brexit has completely failed for UK, say clear majority of Britons – poll

Maybe I should have said non EU immigrants. But, most of the arrivals by boat across the channel are Afghanis, Pakistanis, Indians, Iranians, and Bangladeshis. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-53699511- Brexit has completely failed for UK, say clear majority of Britons – poll
Are you suggesting that racism was not a factor at all in the Brexit vote?- Brexit has completely failed for UK, say clear majority of Britons – poll
IMO many Brexit supporters were fooled into believing that withdrawal from the EU would stop the influx of non European (African/Asian) immigrants. Of course, this has proven to be a false hope. I would not say that all of those Brexiteers were racists, but I'm sure that many were.- Brexit has completely failed for UK, say clear majority of Britons – poll
Just my comment on the way the poll is presented in the chart. Total % of people choosing the good impact/bad impact options in each category is a lot less than 100%. In each category (top to bottom of list): 70, 63, 45, 50, 46, 45, 63, 65, 55, 70. So there must have been more than just those 2 options. If a third option was "no impact" that would alter the overall nuance (IMO). For example: Category 5 - Salaries and wages Good impact = 11% Bad impact = 39% No impact = 50% Result: Most people are no worse off. Yes I did choose that category to illustrate my point, but it applies to all. No, I did not and do not support Brexit. - Corn flakes with no sugar!
