Gastropoda Pulls No Punches
Regina Schrambling's blog Gastropoda is a viciously entertaining read. Here's the least vitriolic (but still pointed) item from today's line-up:
At least once a day a news item makes me think of that old saying, "Figures lie and liars figure." The latest was the "study" correlating the incidence of obesity in different cities with the recipes run in local newspapers. I admit I have a dachshund in this fight, but really, can this actually be true at a time when everything you read says newspapers are going the way of the Walkman? Somehow I suspect fast junk, microwavable garbage and the obsolescence of walking have had more of an iPod impact than the most calorific concoction ever printed under my byline. Besides, everybody knows reading is good exercise. So, for that matter, is cooking.
