Wren's bargain guide, week beginning February 27th:
Interesting stuff this week! From Grist: an interview with the author of Pandora's Lunchbox, which I mentioned in last week's blog entry and which I'm reading right now. Next in my queue is Michael Moss's Salt Sugar Fat: How the Food Giants Hooked Us. There's an excellent excerpt from it at the New York Times Magazine: “The Extraordinary Science of Addictive Junk Food”.
Interesting pieces at Fooducate. According to the Centers for Disease Control, fast food accounts for eleven percent of the typical American's food intake. (On the good side, this is down from 13% in 2006.) Also a set of 11 “Must-Try Motivators” for exercise.
Recipes! Tons of stuff at Chow.com: how to use the drippings from a roast chicken (with an embedded video on how to roast it). A set of easy roasted- and baked-chicken recipes, another of chunky fruit and vegetable salads. Supertaster provides video reviews of the new seasonal codfish sandwiches from Hardee's and Wendy's, and another of the McDonald's Shamrock Shake: “supposedly St. Patrick's Day-themed, although there's very little evidence that the historical St. Patrick ever drank one of these.” Pasta carbonara with peas, easy and tasty, and how to make your own pastrami. Warning, the pastrami recipe includes smoking it inside the house and does not mention how to prevent the smoke-detector going off. Also I am leery of any recipe that includes a link to the online source for an essential ingredient not available at the supermarket. Nor does the note “Prep time: 1 hr 30 min, plus 10 days curing time and 9 hours smoking time” inspire any particular optimism. Your mileage, as always, may vary. Good luck.
More recipes! Sprouted Kitchen has Japanese soba noodles with kale and Brussels sprouts; Simply Recipes has a carrot-ginger soup and Brussels sprouts with a hoisin glaze and a sauté of spaghetti squash and chard; and just in time for the tail-end of blood orange season, Smitten Kitchen has blood orange margaritas. Save me one. Or two.
It's nearly March, which is among other things National Nutrition Month, Caffeine Awareness Month, National Meat-Out Month (coinciding with Lent), Maple Sugar Month (obvious), and National Frozen Food Month (the food companies want to unload last year's pack before the new crops come in, so they're encouraging frozen-food sales: good time to pick stuff up at decent prices). March 1st is National Peanut Butter Lovers' Day (no thanks) and National Fruit Compote Day (yes please, and far more PointsPlus-friendly).
February 27th: National Strawberry Day, National Kahlua Day
February 28th: National Chocolate Soufflé Day, National Chili Day
March 1st: National Peanut Butter Lovers' Day, National Fruit Compote Day; St David's Day
March 2nd: National Banana Cream Pie Day; 1962, first airing of the Twilight Zone episode "To Serve Man"
March 3rd: National Cold Cuts Day, National Mulled Wine Day
March 4th: National Pound Cake Day; 1634, Boston, Samuel Cole opens the first tavern in what is to become the United States. (What took so long?)
March 5th: National Cheese Doodle Day, National Absinthe Day; 1910, Momofuku Ando born, inventor of ramen noodles
March 6th: National Frozen Food Day, National White Chocolate Cheesecake Day; 1912, Oreo cookies debut; 1930, retail frozen foods go on sale for the first time (Springfield, Massachusetts) but do not catch on until after the Second World War

Sorry, all --
I can't make tonight's meeting, but here are the bargains.
PepsiCo is introducing a new Mountain Dew breakfast drink, “Kickstart” – “orange citrus” and “fruit punch” flavors, carbonation, 5% juice (just enough that they can legally label it a “juice drink”), ester of wood rosin, and more caffeine than Mountain Dew itself although less than most energy drinks. Just in case you needed soda pop for breakfast. I will stick with my morning cup of tea thank you.
Two interesting articles at Fooducate touch on what they call “Misadventures in Labeling”: one is specifically about a brand of gluten-free granola with some very inventive material on the “Nutrition Facts” label (salted cashews as an ingredient, but “no sodium”?), the other a cautionary tale about calorie counting. Did you know that calorie information on food labels must be accurate ... with a 20% margin of error? Good thing WW doesn't work from calories any more, because a “500-calorie serving” that actually contained 600 calories could throw Points Classic counts way off.
Speaking of mislabeling, Marion Nestle at Food Politics has an article – with a link to another at the Guardian – on the “horsemeat scandal” in Europe, how horsemeat got into the hamburgers, and how this connects to food laws (and cultural identity) in the US. Over at Weighty Matters there's a fascinating review of Melanie Warner's new book, Pandora's Lunchbox: How Processed Food Took Over the American Meal. Any book by an author who collects processed food (“9 month old only slightly brown around the edges guacamole … cereals older than 2 of my children that still look and taste like new … chicken 'nuggets' that rather than being immortal, liquefied within ten days”) cannot fail to entertain.
Recipes! Snack Girl has a cherry tomato gratinée, and a healthy makeover of jalapeño poppers. Smitten Kitchen provides Italian stuffed cabbage leaves; Simply Recipes has refried black beans, pasta puttanesca, and something regrettably titled “celery root mash” which must be better than it sounds. And Chow.com is piling things on, as always: healthy fish tacos, whole-grain salads, elegant – not to say pretentious – refreshments for your Oscar party (really, now: smoked-salmon-crème-fraîche-and-caviar potato skins?), stews for chilly nights, making your own Girl Scout cookies, and 7 things to do with I swear I could not make this up this is a real thing in the world bacon jam.
The 23rd of this month is both National Banana Bread Day and Dog Biscuit Appreciation Day. Perhaps I'm insufficiently appreciative, but as a dog owner I've tried several different dog biscuits and never found one that was a patch on a decent banana bread.

Wren's bargain guide, week beginning February 13th:
A couple of good ones at Fooducate this week, including “10 Easy Tips to Get You Drinking More Water” and a piece on why you should add chicken feet to your soup. (No hints on where to get chicken feet which I do not frequently see at Bashas' or even AJ's.)
Last week I forgot to mention Summer Tomato's entry on “10 Tips to Save Money While Eating Healthy”, so I'll mention it this week along with Darya's latest entries: one on “8 Simple Tips To Avoid Late Night Snacking”, another on “4 Cooking Mistakes You Learned From Your Parents (and how to fix them)”, and “5 Ideal Vegetables for Lazy Cooks”.
Recipes! For Valentine's Day Chow.com has a set of “classic Valentine's Day dishes”, heavy on truffles and chocolate, and a video tutorial on how to cut tomatoes into hearts. Because I just know you've always wanted to know how to do that. Less romantically but more practically they've also a set of healthy kale recipes, including a kale stroganoff I mean to try, and a video on making a teriyaki chicken “that isn't an overly sweet mess”. Simply Recipes has a chicken mango lettuce wrap, and Sprouted Kitchen has a dish involving delicata squash, kale, and fennel. And Snack Girl has a collection of lighter ways to enjoy chocolate, as well as something which she calls “Buffalo cauliflower”.
To absolutely no one's surprise, tomorrow, February 14th, is National Cream Filled Chocolates Day. The 18th is both the very specific National Crab-Stuffed Flounder Day and the remarkably inspecific Drink Wine Day, neither of which I will decline.
February 13th: National Tortellini Day
February 14th: National Cream Filled Chocolates Day
February 15th: International Gumdrop Day
February 16th: National Almond Day; 1933, Prohibition repealed!
February 17th: National Cafe au Lait Day, National Indian Pudding Day; Fornacalia, ancient Roman bread-oven festival (in honor of the hearth goddess Fornax)
February 18th: Drink Wine Day, National Crab-Stuffed Flounder Day
February 19th: National Chocolate Mint Day; 1855, bread riots in Liverpool
February 20th: National Cherry Pie Day
And I should mention that neither this blog nor the handout I print up for the meetings are official WW publications. No. God, no.

Bargain guide, week beginning February 6th:
Interesting piece at Fooducate, about the manifold definitions of “whole grain” as used on food labels. Short version: don't stop at the “Made! With! Whole! Grains!!!” tag on the front, it's important to look at the entire ingredients list. And at Grist and Huffington Post and Serious Eats (!!), I see where KFC's noxious idea of using fried chicken in place of bread is spreading beyond North America: KFC Japan's new “Kentucky Chicken Rice” sandwich involves a patty of tomato-infused rice, cheese, mayo, and ketchup served between two pieces of chicken.
For Valentine's Day, Chow.com has how to make your own Conversation Hearts! Far from low-calorie – the ingredients list includes “Two pounds of powdered sugar” – but it might be fun if you have some extra time and a one-inch-heart-shaped cookie cutter. Also, for Mardi Gras, some very pretty Jell-O Shots and an actual guide for how many of them equate to “one drink”. And in a follow-up to last week's piece on how to turn fish skins into (something like) bacon, they've got how to turn fish bones into a flavorful salt additive. (Or adulterant. De gustibus etc.)
Recipes! Snack Girl has a “decadent” 3-PointPlus-per-serving dessert of baked sweet potato with vanilla yogurt, a review of two different Greek yogurts (Yoplait's new is better than their old), and interesting options in the frozen-food aisle. Smitten Kitchen has a pasta with white beans (I know, it's carby, but they're the good kind if you use whole-grain pasta) and a new take on egg salad. (That says "chicken salad" in the printed version. My humblest apologies.)
Tomorrow, February 7th, is National Fettucine Alfredo Day and let me just get out of the way right now that the dish Alfredo actually made did not involve any such thing as an Alfredo sauce. Fettucine Alfredo is correctly made entirely of fettucine, butter, and freshly shredded Parmesan cheese. This is all that's necessary – well, this and a lot of tossing with restrained abandon. The 9th is National Bagels and Lox Day, and the 104th birthday of Carmen Miranda, she of the tutti-frutti hat. And the 11th is the fiftieth anniversary of the premiere of Julia Child's The French Chef.
Next Tuesday, the 12th, is Mardi Gras/Shrove Tuesday/Pancake Day/Carnaval. Starting next week the grocery flyers will be awash in heavy promotions for seafood. This week's big items are heavily Valentine's-Day-focused and thus emphasize chocolate, strawberries, chocolate-dipped strawberries, romantic-dinner items, chocolate, any food item ever alleged to have possessed ill-defined or poorly-attested aphrodisiac properties, all things red or pink, heart-shaped boxes, and chocolate.
February 6th: National Chopsticks Day
February 7th: National Fettucine Alfredo Day
February 8th: Molasses Bar Day
February 9th: National Bagels and Lox Day
February 10th: Cream Cheese Brownie Day; birthday (1944) of Frances Moore Lappe, author of Diet for a Small Planet
February 11th: Peppermint Patty Day (the candy, not the character), Don't Cry Over Spilled Milk Day; 1963, The French Chef premieres
February 12th: National Plum Pudding Day, International Pancake Day; Shrove Tuesday; 1976, the Food and Drug Administration bans Red Dye No. 2 as carcinogenic. Red M&Ms disappear for eleven years although they never did contain that dye
February 13th: National Tortellini Day

For Valentine's Day, Chow.com has how to make your own Conversation Hearts! Far from low-calorie – the ingredients list includes “Two pounds of powdered sugar” – but it might be fun if you have some extra time and a one-inch-heart-shaped cookie cutter. Also, for Mardi Gras, some very pretty Jell-O Shots and an actual guide for how many of them equate to “one drink”. And in a follow-up to last week's piece on how to turn fish skins into (something like) bacon, they've got how to turn fish bones into a flavorful salt additive. (Or adulterant. De gustibus etc.)
Recipes! Snack Girl has a “decadent” 3-PointPlus-per-serving dessert of baked sweet potato with vanilla yogurt, a review of two different Greek yogurts (Yoplait's new is better than their old), and interesting options in the frozen-food aisle. Smitten Kitchen has a pasta with white beans (I know, it's carby, but they're the good kind if you use whole-grain pasta) and a new take on egg salad. (That says "chicken salad" in the printed version. My humblest apologies.)
Tomorrow, February 7th, is National Fettucine Alfredo Day and let me just get out of the way right now that the dish Alfredo actually made did not involve any such thing as an Alfredo sauce. Fettucine Alfredo is correctly made entirely of fettucine, butter, and freshly shredded Parmesan cheese. This is all that's necessary – well, this and a lot of tossing with restrained abandon. The 9th is National Bagels and Lox Day, and the 104th birthday of Carmen Miranda, she of the tutti-frutti hat. And the 11th is the fiftieth anniversary of the premiere of Julia Child's The French Chef.
Next Tuesday, the 12th, is Mardi Gras/Shrove Tuesday/Pancake Day/Carnaval. Starting next week the grocery flyers will be awash in heavy promotions for seafood. This week's big items are heavily Valentine's-Day-focused and thus emphasize chocolate, strawberries, chocolate-dipped strawberries, romantic-dinner items, chocolate, any food item ever alleged to have possessed ill-defined or poorly-attested aphrodisiac properties, all things red or pink, heart-shaped boxes, and chocolate.
February 6th: National Chopsticks Day
February 7th: National Fettucine Alfredo Day
February 8th: Molasses Bar Day
February 9th: National Bagels and Lox Day
February 10th: Cream Cheese Brownie Day; birthday (1944) of Frances Moore Lappe, author of Diet for a Small Planet
February 11th: Peppermint Patty Day (the candy, not the character), Don't Cry Over Spilled Milk Day; 1963, The French Chef premieres
February 12th: National Plum Pudding Day, International Pancake Day; Shrove Tuesday; 1976, the Food and Drug Administration bans Red Dye No. 2 as carcinogenic. Red M&Ms disappear for eleven years although they never did contain that dye
February 13th: National Tortellini Day
