Sweet and Savory

kaira — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 08:26:29 -0500

I happen to love the combination of pear (or apple) and gorgonzola on pizza. It’s delicious! You don't even have to add a sauce. If you do it should be a white sauce.

Spaghetti sauce on pita with your choice toppings and toasted in the oven for a few minutes is also a favorite.

Everybody like pizza and i am also. I have eaten home made pizza three time last two days. Because some of pizzas contains low in carbohydrate which does increase in fat. Last weekend i had made crust pizza which is low in carbohydrate and rich in nutrition.

I have just posted about my own personal experience that I am about to go through with metabolic syndrome. I don't drink diet soda, and drink only 1 glass of soda a day and the rest of the day is water. I am going to do some more checking on certain foods, as well as the med that I have to be taking..(which may take a bit to get..gotta wait till pay day )

Lessons Learned

Last year I attempted to can peaches from my grandmother's tree. We were housesitting and I had canned peaches with her many times before. Unfortunately there were several jars of ugly fruit from a bit of procrastination on my part. There is so much to be said for sticking to a job and being able to admire and enjoy the fruits of your own labor. This year I have a newborn baby and my grandmother has returned home. I watched her can peaches for a moment and was reminded that practice makes perfect and she has had a lot of practice!

Homecanned peaches are by far my favorite and for that reason I will continue to practice the art of home canning!

I love preserving, too!

I was so excited to see all the wonderful links! I have been canning for years, first with my mom and now with my own daughter. It is a great tradition and a super way to make the most of our wonderful earth!

Are The Corn Refiners Running Scared?

theducatedplate — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 11:09:51 -0500

While I am completely disgusted by these ads, the optimist in me wants to believe the Corn Refiners Association is forced to spend ad dollars on this campaign because they are beginning to feel the pinch from consumers. I would like to believe that with all the information out there regarding HFCS potential risks and due to blogs like yours, there is growing consumer awareness and criticism for the use of HFCS in our food products. We need to stay united in our efforts for healthier food products for our families and let these companies know that no matter how stupid they try to make us look we will not bite.

Thanks for your info.

Great post, I agree 100%. I recently wrote a post on the commercials as well, voicing my opinions on how silly they are. If you are interested, you can check out my comments at:

No, Really This Is A Good Thing!

CRA created this campaign because consumers do not want to eat this stuff and are frustrated by the lack of available substitutions. They are voting with their wallets.

The supermarkets are paying attention, the manufactures of food products are paying attention. This is textbook PR activity. Except the rules have changed.

Well I Can Answer That One - It Involves The Government

Gena Haskett — Fri, 12 Sep 2008 20:25:39 -0500

There is a U.S. government subsidy on the production of corn. We make too much of it and the U.S. pays agro-businesses (and some small family farms) to grow corn.

Now in a so-called capitalists, free will, free market system that is not supposed to happen. But it does.

When in doubt, follow the money.

America...has come a long way!

Thanks for this terrific list. It's a shame when people come visit, and then order the Italian version of things they know in the U.S.! I'd say the same goes for wine, too. Try things you don't know and just ask what they taste like!!

But, I must say, the U.S. has come a long way since Prince Spaghetti and Tuna Helper.

I'm going to share this post with some of my colleagues who teach academic writing. A beautiful demonstration of what it means to think critically. Thanks, Gena!
