Forget 7 Layer Bean Dip: It's All Greek to Me

7 layer bean dip is great, but it's certainly not the healthiest option and it can get really messy. If you're looking to change up your tailgate with something a little different that's still just as delicious, consider trying this great 7 layer Greek dip by Closet Cooking. This tasty snack features hummus, tatziki, cucumbers, tomato, feta, mint, red onions and kalmata olives. Switch your usual tortilla chips up for some pita chips and you have a tasty Mediteranean treat that's way lower in calories.

Of course, it still isn't going to make your breath smell any better, so you should still bring some mints along.

I'm thinking it is a torch tip. The screws on the sides are for securing it to a wooden handle. There's a hole on the bottom you can't see (go to the link for more pix) -- this hole is actually on the end that faces up and it is where the combustible wad is inserted for burning.

Its a Fobinator cap. When not in use, a fobinator will randomly emit gesren fluid at various pressures, the result of which may be embarrassing or fatal (or both!) When I was working as a pimble on a stannal rig in the Ural mountains, I carried at least three in my hip pockets everywhere I went. I never suffered from 'the slobber' (Guion's syndrom), but I did develop a particular gait.

My Dad worked as a ironworker for over 40 years. I have seen many of these on the end of very very long rods that they would dip into the molten metal...this is used to pouyr molten metal.

Well I was pretty sure it was a piece on a train, until I found out it was only 2 inches tall. There is a Durbin, west Virginia and I think they are pretty famous for their old locomotives.

So it might be a piece on an old locomotive, but I have no idea where it would go or what purpose it would serve. Maybe someone else does.

Incidently, can anyone make out all the letters on the other side? S T L (something) K O ? or maybe the K is an R or an &. I cant really make out the letter before if there is one.

It is a specialized sort of crucible for thermite welding. The thermite reaction forms molten iron, which runs out of the hole in the bottom. Possibly used to weld railroad tracks together.
