Dinner Tonight: Broccoli Sautéed with Crisp Garlic

I don't have oyster sauce....would fish sauce work? Forgive me if this is a stupid question!

In Videos: How To Peel a Kiwi

Add me to the list- I've been doing this for 15 years now! I still run into people in my business (bakery/pastry shop) who have never seen it before though and they always think I'm a genius...... I learned it from the owner of a Mexican restaurant I worked at.

Soda, cola, pop, coke, etc.?

Soda- and I was raised in Dallas. My mom, who was from the Oklahoma/Texas border area called it pop or soda-pop.

Don't Drink Eight Glasses of Water a Day

I am one of the "maybe 1 out of 20 people" who actually drinks that much water- I just really like like water and don't drink sodas or iced tea. It's good for people who have a hard time drinking that much water to know that they don't really 'need" to, but it won't hurt me to continue doing so, right?

FatBastard- I agree about beef selling itself, but a catchy number like "Pork: the Meat of Kings" could only help!

In the News: China to Monitor Food Plants; Additives Impact Hyperactivity; Potatoes Are the Future

re-read that first article....they inspected 18, but only found violations in 3. The intro you wrote is misleading.

The End of Apples

Fujis are also my go-to out of season apple, but nothing- I mean nothing- beats a fresh Michigan Honeycrisp. Too bad they are so short lived!

Who Really Fathered the Everything Bagel?

I personally love a good everything bagel, but since I'm not a New Yorker my opinion probably doesn't count when it comes to bagels!

BTW, why can't you put lox on an everything bagel? I'm pretty sure I remember doing it and it was delicious...... Don't laugh- I'm not from New York.

In Videos: Colbert Report: People Destroying America - Happy Meal

It is a sad state of affairs when our public schools are forced to take on "corporate partners" because they are underfunded by the government.

besides that, I think Colbert is hilarious!

European Union Draft Report: 'Cloned Food Appears Safe'

My issue with cloned and GMO food (animal AND vegetable) comes more from an ethical, natural standpoint than a food safety one. I don't know why it should piss you off so much wunami. I only hope that we are given the option to choose between cloned and non-cloned meat with strict labeling regulations. But what are the chances of that happening?

as long as it's a good steak and not overcooked, I don't think I have a favorite.
