Allrecipes reveals the enormous gap between foodie culture and what Americans actually cook.

DietID_TeamDietitians Precisely what I think we are doing - bringing that gap! Simple doesn't need to be processed and Foodstanders are sharing that

JenniferEmilson Most intriguing. While I love seeing the photos of the creativity displayed these days, and the wildly exotic and hard to obtain ingredients, I know I don't live like that. Admiration from afar!!...

I get the worst mosquito bites and I still hate lathering up in chemicals to keep them away. I'm going to give this a try as an alternative. "Grow your own pest control, and never buy bug spray aga...

Dontstopeating @tavolafortwo ;-) some useful advice

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.)

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

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...
