Question: Do hand sanitizers like Germ-X and Purell really do a good job of killing germs?

Do hand sanitizers really do what we think they're doing? Or are we just kidding ourselves? Is there any definitive research that you can point me to?

Answer: studies are a bit hard to read on this. Articles like this one confuse the issue:

http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/14366.php

It says that "Families that used alcohol-based Hand Sanitizer gel had a 59 percent reduction..." well sure, but they probably often took other precautions in food preparation and sanitization. You have to figure any family that uses sanitizers also takes many other precautions.

There are other studies that say the alcohol based sanitizers reduce the natural resistance, and reduce oils in the skin that inhibit bacteria from clinging.

http://news.uns.purdue.edu/html4ever/000211.Almanza.sanitizers.html

I think the consensus is that they work, but are no replacement for soap and water when available.

The question raised most recently is whether or not killing the germs with hand sanitizers is increasing the rate at which they evolve a resistance. I guess we will just have to wait and see on that one.

Question: Cake frosting Doubts?

Please answer all my queries?
1)I buy the "thick cream" that comes in tetra pak from the stores. Brands like Puck or KDD. How do I use that for frosting in cake?

2)Also is confectioner's sugar or icing sugar basically usual sugar that is powdered? I used to grind the normal sugar in the mixie till it became like icing sugar.

3)I once bought Whipped cream (also came in a tetra pak). It was of such watery consistency that I didn't know how to use it in icing?

4) I have plain unsweetened cocoa powder. Cooking chocolate bars/chips, etc were more expensive, so for a learner I thought I d have some recipes from cocoa powder.

Thnx

Answer: Ok, I"m thinking that your "thick cream" was just whipping cream. You have to whip it with your mixer in order to get it light and fluffy. For frosting, add some powdered sugar and vanilla.

Confectioner's Sugar,and Icing Sugar are all powdered sugar. You can make your own by blending regular white sugar in a blender, but that is a lot of extra work ) Plus, the store bought powdered sugar has some corn starch in for stability.

I think I answered your questions, the tetra paks with the cream are as I stated above.

OH, the cocoa powder. If you have a recipe that calls for unsweetened chocolate bar, you can substitute the powder as follows:
1oz unsweetened chocolate bar = 3 Tablespoons cocoa and 1 Tablespoon of oil.

Domes do more than simply adding an architectural look to your home or business. These additions allow the air the roof to flow through your attic or garage, or even shed. This airflow prevents musty odors and allows the hot air escape as it rises naturally to the top of the enclosure.
