Here's some food for thought for today...
- Oh noes!!! The coffee cups! City hall gives the take-out coffee industry a few months to come up with a recyclable lid. You know - to replace the lid that is already recyclable, except the city doesn't have the facilities to do so. I don't even drink take-out coffee and my money is on Tim's for this one.
- Speaking of coffee cups - would you walk into a restaurant carrying one from another shop?
- Food activists share what they'd say if they got 1 minute alone with Barack Obama.
- Scientists are looking at new ways to protect fresh juice products from strains of salmonella bacteria.
- If you're gonna save money by taking leftovers for lunch, it helps to have stuff that reheats well.
- "Shifting baselines syndrome" - when you can't remember back to when there were fish in the sea.
- And finally - who's your favourite fictional TV or movie chef or cook?
