Friday Food News

Guinness sales are down. (Note to self: Must drink more!)

Speaking of Guinness—World Records, that is—the restaurant that made the world's most expensive dessert has been shut down by the health authorities.

Meanwhile, food banks are more needy than ever.

I see Safeway has stocked up on organic bottled water.

Why a salad costs more than a Big Mac. Yeah, I know this. Ever hear of a farmer cashing his broccoli subsidy check?

Why home-baked is best. Yeah, knew that too.

A reminder to myself: try out this new vegan restaurant in London, Rootmaster. Although, I'm still a fan of home-cooked.

Cassia or cinnamon? Turns out they're both cinnamon, just different kinds. In fact, there are lots of different kinds of cinnamon and depending where you live, you're probably used to one or the other.

Alec Baldwin fights for healthy school lunches. Meanwhile, the CSPI has graded the states on their school lunches. Surprisingly, many of the highest scoring schools are in the South.

I'm still worried about this Guinness news. Idea: Let's all donate a few pints to our local food bank!

I always get jealous of Daiku at Irish fest as he guzzles Guinness and I'm abandoned to find myself a vegan alternative! Bah, humbug!
