cookingfridayHere's what's cooking around town today...

Support Mom and Pop shops by allocating $50 a month in purchases from local, independent stores. [Pantry - The Food Feed]

What the heck is a pluot? Waaay more than you need to know (seriously - 2100 words?? Yikes!) about the plum-apricot hybrid. [Gremolata]

Having a favourite drink is fine, but learning more about the history of the brand that shows up at all of your memorable events is pretty cool too. [National Post]

Turns out I'm not the only one sceptical over the fake hype of "superfoods". [Foodie and the Everyman]

Local Food Plus - what do they DO anyway?  Lots of stuff, it turns out. [GoodFoodRevBlog]

Delicatessens do not have the cachet of pandas (I don't know, that's what Eric Vellend says), but they are seeing a resurgence in popularity, and author David Sax's new book about Jewish delis documents the trends. [Menumental - Inside Toronto]
