Here's some food for thought for today...
- Food writer Mark Bittman gets in trouble for recommending overfished red snapper in a recipe recently. The comments here show just how confusing the whole sustainable fish issue really is.
- Desperate for summer fruit? How much would you be willing to pay for a single cherry?
- No, you don't just add "tini" to the end - the complicated, detailed world of cocktail names.
- Baltimore City Hall is creating a 2,000 ft square garden on their front lawn, with everything they grow going to a local soup kitchen.
- Does fewer ingredients equal a healthier product? Food manufacturers are counting on consumers thinking exactly that as they roll out marketing campaigns based on "simplicity".
- Do canned good count as local and seasonal?
- And finally, the foodie's secret shame - mustard collections.
