Photo of the Day: Individually-Wrapped Bananas, Freaking Us Out
Super Target individually wraps EVERYTHING. I've stopped buying my veggies there because of it. I hated feeling guilty everytime I bought my individually wrapped bell pepper.

You were in my neck of the woods! I live right down the street !!! The fried green tomatoes are good too. They also have dollar drafts at happy hour which makes for very happy grad students.
I clean my own fish, and pop corn in a pot. Two down, two to go. Maybe I should stop ignoring my copper pots.
Very interesting. I live near Theodore so I will be checking this out soon.
I haven't tried it, but read good reviews from Southern Living's recipe. You can find it here:

I'm in grad school now, and the subject of cloned animals came up in a lecture. Here's what I got: Cloned mammals are different from plants, b/c they undergo genomic imprinting during gametogenesis. This is a step in development when some genes from the mother/father are turned off in the embryo. Without it you get certain defects (in humans you can get Prader-Wili or Angelman's Syndrome b/c of this). So cloned animals don't go through gametogenesis, meaning their DNA is the same but regulation of how they develop is not normal. You end up with animals that are not identical to the cloned parent. Most of the cloned eggs die, those that live have extreme obesity, breathing difficulties, depressed metabolism, and birth defects. I think purposely creating animals that you know are going to be really screwed up is just wrong. I also don't understand how this can be profitable if most of them will die when implanted. I definately won't be eating it.
I like milk better, but i'll eat any good chocolate that crosses my path
If no one's around to bug me about it i'll eat anything with my fingers.
Healthier as in fewer carcinogens (free radicals and all that good stuff) not healther as in fewer calories. I don't think anyone is silly enough to think that changing the oil will make fried oreo's healthy. Also, unless "anal leakage" sounds fun to you I would steer clear of Alli. That stuff is horrible.
The best fried pickles i've had come from Muddy River BBQ in Portsmouth, NH! They use a beer batter that's amazing, the pickles have a nice sour taste and they serve them with a delicious spicy dipping sauce, YUM!
they also have a Muddy River BBQ in Maine as well for all you north east vacationers and foodies!
does anyone else find it strange that they are all priced differently...?
Morrisons is also where I saw a coconut wrapped in the same way; shrinkwrap and a plastic tray. Ludicrous!
Morrisons also shrinkwraps bell peppers and broccoli. And avocadoes.
Also, wrapping in plastic degrades the fruit, and makes it over-ripen and soften to quickly. It's bad all around.
I can't find it right now, but I've seen a photo of individually wrapped peanuts from Japan. I hope those trays are biodegradable.
I used to live in Spanish Harlem and they did this a lot with the fruit at my local C-Town. It always kind of grossed me out!
prepackaged produce is the number one reason i DO NOT shop at trader joe's!!!! ridiculous.
Another sign of the coming apocalypse. Its amazing and sad to me that people are still so oblivious.
