Do you like to chew your soup? I much prefer soups with pieces of things than a purée, particularly if it's my entrée.

Early taste of @RobynShapiro's new cricket bonbons - they are delicious. Have you had #insect foods before?
Crickets are all the rage because they are 60%-70% protein and take much fewer resources to grow and process, unlike other popular sources of protein
-
RobynShapiro Thanks for the great feedback last night! In addition to having loads of protein, crickets are also high in omega-3 fatty acid, iron, fiber and even calcium.
If you only had three herbs to cook with...
What would they be?
-
Ricky Basil and Herbie Hancock. Need to think about the third.
-
annefood Such a hard question. I always ponder this while reading the Behind The Plate answers... I guess parsley, cilantro and basil. But it's hard for me to omit tarragon .
-
Ricky (No but srsly I wouldn't know what to do without cumin. I think cumin and basil would do it for me.)
What is Food ?

Food. There are so many aspects to it that an entire encyclopedia could be
written on it. For many cultures food is more than what we ingest. In the

DietID_TeamDietitians Food is one of the only things that unites us all, and somehow also divides us. It should be an equalizer - all barriers break down when you break bread together, but that isn't currently the case.

unconventionalbaker Hm... interesting argument. There's definitely something to food that holds cultures together. But I think the worship of the sun and stars and the traditions that come from that have a stronger...
-
mirasingh Great point @unconventionalbaker. I think food for some people has become a routine - because we don't have a connection to food anymore. I don't agree with that, but I think that's where we've come
Food Policy Action | Tell Congress: Reject electronic GMO labeling & demand mandatory, clear, on-package labels
act.foodpolicyaction.com
Proposed solution for labeling GMO food: QR codes? I mean no matter your feelings about GMO food, QR codes as a solution for anything, ever... Sorry. I'm biasing the discussion. Would you scan a QR...

sugardetoxme I have used a QR code once. So I'm with you. I'm curious what other folks on the farming, journalism and policy front think would be great solutions @SaraGassman @olivettefarm @Emmatellsfoodstories...
-
olivettefarm I've never used a QR code and I doubt most people would for their food. I think clear on package labeling is the very best option, but that will be a huge fight. In the mean time I think educating...

How do you Salvage Salad Greens?
food52.com
@Food52 recently did this post on salvaging salad greens in soup. I just did this with some leftover tatsoi. Sure some of you have tips. Any suggestions?
-
olivettefarm Love tatsoi! I like to add that to smoothies when I have a ton. I also like to grill romaine heads if they're beginning to wilt.
-
katewilson Those are good ones. My dad loves spinach in his smoothies. And he's a beast behind the grill! Grilled romaine sounds great with blue cheese. @olivettefarm

sugardetoxme I take my wilty kale and turn it into kale chips. Usually add a little cumin or nutritional yeast for added B vitamins. Bet @serveMEnow @gingerandchorizo @Cravingsinamsterdam @JenniferEmilson and...
New fruit of the week? Has anyone had Durian? This video of Jimmy Kimmel and Jessica Chastain eating the smelly fruit is hilarious.

"It kind of smells like a garbage can."

Ricky 😨

sugardetoxme Yes, a Singaporean fave
-
serveMEnow Yes, a Filipino staple. Stinks but delicious. Never knew the stench was a big deal until everyone on the interwebs started trying it. Lol
Would you put 12 teaspoons of sugar in your coffee? Great NY Times piece on the need for better sugar labels and warnings

JenniferEmilson If people only understood that this is what is in most soft drinks.

DietID_TeamDietitians Yep! The article mentioned a whole roster of drinks, including several that are commonly thought of as healthy

annefood An easy one is to simply read nutrition labels! Right @manfood ? What are your eating habit change thoughts @Rachna @sugardetoxme @ErikMariscal ?

manfood I would opt for skipping a meat / animal option- think veggies and think helping the planet. We need to eat less meat... Even though it tastes so good, less is more....
Picked up dried mulberries the other day here in Vancouver. What to do with them! I have some ideas, but welcome more suggestions!
-
sugardetoxme I'd love to know what to do with mulberries. Maybe a homemade granola?
-
SimplySeema Love mulberries! I love adding the fresh ones into homemade raw chocolate. It's a delicious sweet surprise. Imagine it would be great mixed in with nuts, cereal or even cookies! What are your ideas...
-
JenniferEmilson I've only ever had them fresh. These have a slight crunch, like figs. I'll either use for granola or porridge topping, or else I'll reconstitute them in safer for baking.
