Hey Nate:
Just kiddin’ but I couldn’t resist.
My Dad and Uncle used to peal peaches, apples, oranges, etc with the same pocket knife that they used to clean fish, castrate calves, lance abscesses on cattle, etc.
One day my uncle was pealing a peach and I asked him if he had washed his knife and he told us that : “ Nope, the blood added flavor and besides that, that kind of stuff was for sissies!”
He was just kidding us but we didn’t bother him for a piece of peach any more.
Sorry if I offended anyone but it stirred up some fond memories of my Dad and Uncle. They have both been gone for a while but I miss them every day.
