As long as you keep it in the fridge, it can go 6-8 weeks without being fed. As long as you're baking with it more often than that, there's no reason to feed and dump it. You still have to kill the yeast babies to bake, but at least you aren't dumping them down the drain.Mad Gastronomerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16430430847669544406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434548298509198554.post-64261241801194338802010-04-06T19:32:56.536-07:002010-04-06T19:32:56.536-07:00MMMMMM baked bread.

At least you're not freeze-drying the little beasties, cramming them into vacuum-packed envelopes and sending them off to total strangers in exchange for money, to be abused under unknown circumstances, like microbial chattel. Like pasture-raised meat, they're living the good life up until The Moment.<br /><br />I've obviously spent too much time thinking about this. Um...are you <i>actually</i> hearing your bread call you a murderer?
