Here’s some food for thought for today…
- Okay… I’m a fatass myself, and I don’t want to come down on other people who are heavy, but this survey that shows that people would rather have gastric bypass surgery than exercise or diet to lose weight is really, well… maybe, you folks should consider something other than the lazy way of doing things, yes?
- Canning and preserving – now that urban hipsters have claimed it as their own, is it okay for regular folk like yer Grandma to keep on doing it?
- Dear factory-style hog farms – you stink and people don’t like you.
- If you’re using pre-prepared ingredients (like cake mix) can you really call it cooking?
- Used to be you’d never think of the mall as a place for fresh local produce, but in a mall in Cleveland, they’re growing produce on site.
- How are Cheetos better than homemade oatmeal cookies? Parents in NYC plan to hold a bake-in to protest bake sale items being replaced with processed foods to raise funds for school events.
- I bet, after you read this, that you’re going to want peanut butter on crackers.
- Too cute to eat – why some people can eat pig, lamb or cow but get bunched up at the thought of eating rabbit or seal.
- Wine grown in New York City? The rise of the urban micro-winery.
- Freaked out about the processed food recalls? Marion Nestle offers a timeline, which details the manufacturers resistance to issuing a recall at all. Yikes!
