It's about time! Granted the snacks are fairly junky but at least you can examine what you're choosing before you buy it! #foodtech

Chocolate Consumption 'Positively Associated' With Brain Function
medicaldaily.com
Makes me feel good about my late night dark chocolate snack! "New study suggests habitual chocolate consumption is good for cognition..." #foodnews

darkchocolatepeanutbutter I just had a piece of Hu Kitchen's cashew butter, vanilla bourbon flavored chocolate. Does that count? 😋
-
annefood Yum! I love Hu Kitchen.

dundukitchen Thanks for posting this! It's the perfect excuse for eating chocolate at night😊
Store nuts in the freezer!
Their high fat content causes them to spoil easily, and freezing them keeps them fresh. Just use/eat them straight out of the freezer! #kitchentips
-
JenniferEmilson I keep all nuts as well as certain flours in the freezer- makes such a difference!!
-
annefood Agreed!!
Is a tracking app the solution to commercial food waste?
foodsafetynews.com
Automated food waste tracking programs can help food service operators record what is being tossed, and monitor produce trimming, over-production and over-proportioning, plus food spoilage. #nofood...

Riki Great concept.
It may be hard to induce such cooperation
As it is not a revenue driving activity to the food industry.
So , key question is how to make it happen and what type of effective... -
annefood I would think it would be appealing to individual businesses to whom it would help bring in money: less food waste = less money waste.
-
DietID_TeamDietitians Well waste also cost money in hauler fees, so that is one consideration. However at the retailer level, you need to think about the concept of "returns" where unsold inventory is given back to...
A new Dutch supermarket gives food to those who can't afford it

A foundation looks at an individual's entire financial picture, and if they qualify they receive a card with "fictitious money" to shop at the grocery store. A pretty awesome solution to the proble...

unconventionalbaker That's awesome! 👍🏻💚
Add some zip to your vinaigrette with spices!
I used ground cumin in this shallot vinaigrette with lemon juice, white wine vinegar and mustard. It's a great way to add more flavor to a simple green salad. #kitchentips

tinabeans Brilliant! Cumin goes well with anything :P
What is your favorite bitter green and how do you prepare it?
Sweet beets with ricotta salata and rich toasty hazelnuts are a great foil for these bitter dandelion greens!

JenniferEmilson I still like chard, chicory or even radicchio (even though it's not green!!)
160 billion lbs of food are wasted yearly due to confusing date-labeling laws.

EXPIRED is a five minute film that reveals how best by and sell by dates applied at the state level restrict stores from selling or donating perfectly good food. Did you know that "spoiled" pasteur...
-
unconventionalbaker Really a shame. I guess there's no way to avoid this when food is mass produced the way it is today -- common sense is traded for "standards" that tend to backfire... :/
-
JenniferEmilson Isn't it also an issue of not understand 'Best By' dates vs 'Use By' dates. Best By is a safety net for retailers, even though there is plenty of life still in that product! Nothing beats our own...
-
annefood @JenniferEmilson totally! But apparently those best by dates aren't even backed by current science, yet after that date the food can't even be donated! There needs to be some sort of either a)...
Make sure your fridge isn't overpacked to ensure your food stays cold.
An overfilled fridge prevents air from circulating properly. It's the perfect excuse to use all of the goodies that might be hiding in the back! #nofoodwaste #kitchentips
-
unconventionalbaker Good tip! I once had to call in a technician because my fridge was leaking, and the problem was just that it was so packed some things were blocking a vent :s so I can vouch for this one 👍🏻
-
annefood Oh no @unconventionalbaker ! Glad it was an easy fix!!
