My father used to run squeezin’s through these hills during Prohibition. I guess many people had some of this set aside for medicinal use as a base for herbal remedies and, of course, uncut lightning. Back in those days, people got by in the best way they could. Times change and some things stay the same. A non-alcoholic squeezin’ that you should know about that helps with just about anything that ails you (at least the infectious bugs) is grapefruit seed extract liquid (GSE).
