Sorry about not making tonight's meeting.
The Center for Science in the Public Interest, by way of Consumerist, presents (ta-daa!) “The 9 Most Calorie-Filled Chain Restaurant Meals of 2014”. Cheesecake Factory appears on this list three separate times, topping the list with a “Bruléed French Toast” that's over 2500 calories and 93 grams of saturated fat if you don't eat the bacon.
I'm … really not very hungry any more.
Fooducate examines Arby's new “Mega Meat Stacks” sandwich line, available through August. One of them, the “Triple Meat Stack”, weighs in at 13 ounces of “turkey, roast beef, pepper bacon, lettuce, tomato and mayo on honey wheat bread”, 900 calories, and 116% of your full DAY's recommended allowance of salt. Also banana facts and quick healthy breakfasts that aren't a bowl of cereal. From Marion Nestle I learn that meat and poultry might finally get COOL – Country Of Origin Labeling, labels that would make clear where your food animals were born, raised, and slaughtered. Summer Tomato offers ways to eat more probiotics. And from Food Network, a photoillustrated list of 100-calorie foods! (15 cashew halves, 13 large shrimp, 28 baby carrots, one hundred fresh raspberries.)
Recipes! Chow.com has a salad of kale, feta, tomatoes, and fresh mint, an interesting combination. They yet again resurrect the bloody bacon jam to top some pan-charred okra. A corn-bell pepper-zucchini sauté that looks tasty. Three fresh salsas in, we're assured and I question, thirty minutes. (The recipe is for some reason presented in “gallery” format, with a separate page and photo for each step – peel the mangos, chop the mangos, chop the onion, chop the chiles, chop the tomatoes, chop the cilantro – so just reading the damn thing may itself take that long.) At Simply Recipes I find a summer-vegetable gratin: eggplant, tomatoes, and zucchini topped with cheese and baked. Martha at Simple Nourished Living is doing “30 Days of Juicing”. And Snack Girl has refrigerator pickled green beans, light budget snacks, and one-Point cherry cheesecake bites!
