Food prices: Like cheap oil, is cheap food a thing of the past? Interesting opinion piece from the NY Times.
Junk food: Why you can feel sick after eating junk food: Journey of a Cheeseburger.
Corn & mung ramen: Love the look of the corn and mung ramen on the cuisine.com.au site. Quick, light and delicious.
Mashed veg: Instead of having mashed potatoes – why not make Jamie’s mashed vegetables? Great winter food.
My current food obsession: the smoky paprika and onion sauce from Stonesoup. I can just imagine it – hot, smoky and uber-tangy. I’m going to be making this soon.
Mental health: It’s off the food and diet topic, but I thought Andrew Denton’s programme about mental health this week was wonderful. It’s called Angels and Demons and can be viewed online. Note some people may find certain scenes distressing.
