"A new study reveals the full extent of globalization in our food supply. More than two-thirds of the crops that underpin national diets originally came from somewhere else — often far away."

munchiemummy Really interesting. I never thought about how the trend of photographing restaurant meals was helping to feed (pun intended) the trend of healthier food.

etsummer I love this! I know I get a majority of my healthy eating/cooking inspiration from photos on Instagram and Foodstand. Awesome.
Finally made it to Superiority burger. The hype is real
Superiority Burger
Picnic with @poojisms and @Nainiac chomping on some #vegan burgers and snap peas. Verdict: surprisingly delicious, and worthy of a line. Thanks for the aggressive nudge to go here @Emma!

Got a chance to try freshly harvested cashews. Has anyone else tried freshly picked cashews?
My cousin grows cashews in Andra Pradesh and sent these beauties. I'm sure they were steamed like all other cashews since cashews have a toxic coating, but they still tastes super fresh, surprising...

sugardetoxme I love how they grow. Eat them all the time in Mozambique

etsummer Always funny to think about that the nuts we usually see in the grocery stores have been shelled and treated and roasted, etc. etc. My grandparents have a pistachio orchard and what grows on the...

MargaretG I saw these trees in south Florida but they were not fruiting, so I didn't get to taste the nuts. Such a fantastic thing.

Celebrity endorsements of food and drinks show that 80%+ are for junk food.
pediatrics.aappublications.org
I knew the number was high, but this is pretty sad. I'm sure part of the issue is that healthier food options don't have budgets for celebrity endorsements.

darkchocolatepeanutbutter I don't like this trend at all. It reminds me of when celebrities endorsed cigarettes in advertisements. I'm glad Michelle Obama has celebrities endorsing fruits and veggies for her campaign but...

munchiemummy There should definitely be limitations on junk food advertising, just like there is for alcohol and cigarettes. Unfortunately, big food would put up a big fight.

etsummer I think it's harder too that junk foods are more branded. Easier to advertise Coca Cola than just 'zucchini' or 'peaches' in general.
Beet fusilli from @sfoglini with wild caught Alaskan salmon + lots of #leftover veggies made a solidly flavorful #nofoodwaste dinner
Greens were wilted, but a quick sauté with garlic brought them back to life. Made the tomato sauce with some pretty mushy tomatoes from the farmers market. Simply delicious!
Thank you to farmer Les for taking my giant bag of compost!
Birmingham Farmers Market
I couldn't find a drop off bin anywhere so I peddled my bag of frozen food scraps around the farmers market, and this nice farmer took it for his chickens. #NoFoodWaste
