Reply to "Smoke Ring -- the real story"

Saltpetre is indeed, Potassium Nitrate. But, used by itself it does not cure meat. It is what gives the distinctive color. It has to be combined with Nitrite and salt, to cure.
My big bottle of it sitting next to me sez a warning on the label: Warning! Keep Out Of Reach Of Male Children!

So, men who eat Viagra like candy, were essentially raised on cured meats. I think they just need tighter casings! LOL! Eeker
