Looking these beauties up on the inter-webs and found a fun fact: they're technically a fruit. They're also a good source of antioxidants with that gorgeous purple color. Do you have a favorite wa...

NehaNBB They are a fruit?! Had no idea. Are regular snow peas also a fruit?

mirasingh I added these these to a party platter with some yogurt dips, and they were so colorful!

munchiemummy @MargaretG we're trying it and it's effective but still there are too many slugs! It seems hopeless at this point. I've lost all of my lettuce, arugula, radicchio, carrots, and basil so far.

Great article to clear up some confusion about GMOs - but you'll also see that the idea to provide info on GMOs in QR codes has made it in the bill. oof. Thoughts on this?

How do you feel about the phrase, "clean eating"?
I've heard some nutritionists/dietitians who do not like to label food as clean because it causes people to look at food as black or white. Others feel it helps them to stay nutritionally focused; ...
-
Emma I really appreciate this question. My feeling is that "clean" makes good food sound a bit precious, pure, even pretentious. I don't love the term. Looking forward to hearing others' thoughts!
-
Brianne I've struggled with this question because 'clean' is the only term I can come up with to describe how I like to eat. I'm not a vegetarian, but I don't eat meat unless I know it was raised humanely,...

NehaNBB I don't like the term at all because it positions the opposite as dirty, and wrong - and the more we judge people about their food choices, the worse off we will be.

JenniferEmilson Intriguing article. What surprised me most is when I got to the end of the article, only 99% of nutritionists consider an apple or orange healthy. What's up with that 1%??!

DietID_TeamDietitians Seriously!! I wonder if they would get different results if they only surveyed registered dietitians, who have to get much more training than nutritionists
