Here's some food for thought for today...
- Ooh, a study that doesn't assume it's the final word on a subject and leaves the door open for other opinions - but still, the correlation between strokes and the number of fast food restaurants in a particular neighbourhood bears further exploration.
- When I grow up, I wanna be a food safety inspector. Turns out, there's a school for that.
- Who knew that the hippies were right all along? Corporations are turning to the natural sweetener stevia in place of sugar or high-fructose corn syrup.
- Niman Ranch, known in the US for their sustainable, grass-fed beef, never made a profit in 30 years of business, and after merging with a Chicago-based holding company, the founder will no longer eat meat from the company.
- Cooking well depends only on good planning and the willingness to use everything.
- The roti-eaters take on the pizza-eaters - defining ethnicity with food.
- And finally, a selection of bizarre soft drinks. Because there's nothing quite as refreshing as cow's urine.
