Yes, it has been this hot in the deep south.
Roberta Wright, who lives in a suburb of Houston, Tx., decided to try something we’ve always wondered about, can you bake bread in your mailbox during the summer months?
Well, according to the photos here that have gone viral, the answer appears to be yes.
Wright’s friend Howard Ceasar posted the photos on Facebook and he says that the bread baked for 45 minutes in the mailbox.
Now, we all know how hot it can get in a mailbox during the summer, but to see a full loaf of bread baked in it is really eye-opening.
I don’t know how it tasted, but now I am intrigued and I too want to try baking a loaf of bread in my mailbox.
Disclaimer, if you try this, you may want to leave a note taped to your mailbox so that the mail delivery person is shocked when he or she opens your box to drop off the mail.
Imagine if you get your prescriptions from a mail order pharmacy and they were left in your mailbox during the summer months. Required storage for Rx meds typically tops out in the mid-80F.
Rule of thumb, is that any medications stored outside of the required temp range for >24 hrs is considered compromised and their quality/potency is questionable.
Of course, this picture is loaf of bread being baked after 45 minutes and notice that this mailbox is somewhat insulated by two layers of bricks surrounding the metal mail box. This demonstration has nothing to do with a package of meds being in various USPS vehicles in transport
