Under Pressure


When shopping to fill my pantry for the first time I bypassed several products because of that bloating you see when food begins to go bad. I made it about halfway through the store when I ran into this tub of Crisco. It was bloated like you see in the picture---along with every other tub. Then I realized that the altitude here in Smokey Valley (~5,000 feet) is causing some products packed in less sturdy packaging (foils, plastics, etc) that are air-tight and packed near sea level to expand quite a bit once shipped to the local general store.
