2010-08-31 Journal Editorial: Large violators of food-safety laws need to know they could be put out of businessMargaret Hamburg, chief of the U. S. Food and Drug Administration, said last week her agency doesnt have enough authority to help prevent this kind of outbreak. Inevitably, someone in the federal government is going to say more inspectors and bureaucracy are needed to protect consumers from unsafe food. But this movement to local foods cant likely ever produce enough to feed everyone, and giant, corporate farms are here to stay.

2010-08-30 Food safety: Egg incident shows its not all its cracked up to beWhile the normal red flags are flying about the safety of our food supply, this incident has raised them higher. Might this be the moment that Congress straightens out how officials monitor food and food suppliers Clearly, Congress shouldnt just stop after getting the answers at a hearing. This is yet another example - recall the trouble with tomatoes and peanut butter only months ago - of how easily the nations food supply can be compromised and how difficult it can be for officials to prevent it beforehand or control it afterward. This months salmonella scare triggered a massive recall of eggs nationwide, and Food and Drug Administration officials say theyve linked the problem to the feed used on two farms in Iowa.

2010-08-29 Gina Ciagne, CLC: Breastfeeding: Becoming a Healthier Nation From the StartI breastfed my three kids for a year each. I would do it again. I wouldnt presume to try to convince another to do it. My oldest child didnt need an antibiotic until she was 5. She has been housebound for a year with severe IBS which she has suffered from since she was a teen( no its not stress). My second child has severe allergies, skin problems and asthma. My youngest child had continuous ear infections, allegies to food, pollen and medications, and autism. I did not lose an ounce of weight while lactating and experienced morning sickness the whole time with each child. They each have great teeth and never broke a bone. I would no more blame their health problems on breastfeeding than I would credit it for the problems they havent developed. Breast feeding is obviously the way our bodies are designed to feed our Evidence-based research tells us that the U. S. could save usd. 13 billion on health care costs each year if 90 percent of women breastfed exclusively for six months. - Breastfeeding: becoming a healthier nation from the start living
2010-08-28 John Robbins: How Egg Industry Greed Caused the Salmonella OutbreakThis is why a number of major fast food companies, including Burger King, Subway and Wendys, and retailers including Trader Joes, Safeway and Wal-Mart, have made various levels of commitment to purchasing or selling cage-free eggs. And why major food companies like Hellmanns mayo, which uses 350 million eggs a year, have announced they are going 100 percent cage-free. For years, the U. S. egg industry has been telling us that there is no connection between salmonella outbreaks and the practice of cramming layer hens into cages so small the birds cant lift a single wing. Its been their party line for so long theyve probably begun to actually believe it. Earlier this year, the leading U. S. egg industry trade group announced, true to form, that caging hens is "better for food safety. " From an animal welfare point of view, cage free eggs are far from perfect, but they are better. And from a public health perspective, cage-free eggs are a necessary and urgently needed improvement. - How egg industry greed caused the salmonella outbreak living
2010-08-27 Sanjay Khanna: Potash Is Food Resilience: Should Canadas PotashCorp Be Sold to ChinaPotash use to be the cheapest of all fertilizers, hovering around usd. 140 to usd. 160 per ton in my area. I think about the time the "world food crisis" hit it went through the roof, seems like the highest quote I remember getting was usd. 750 per ton, but I dont remember for certain. My understanding is potash production is a limited thing, so having what I believe is North Americas main source(am I correct about that) owned by the Chinese is very worrying to me. Bottom line is if China needs all the potash themselves, they are going to take it, either simply by refusing to sell to anyone else or hiking the price so high North American farmers cant afford it. I realize Huff post champions organic agriculture, but most crops are grown conventionally and need potash(provides potassium). This definitely would impact our food security. A Chinese acquisition of PotashCorp could encourage China to overuse potash, a resource that should be managed with utmost care. - Potash is food resilience: should canadas potashcorp be sold to china business

2010-08-18 Jennifer Sygo: Pass the pepper (and the olive oil) Appetizer National PostThese simple little habits might seem to be based on history or tradition, but, as it turns out, there is more to adding oil or pepper than simple flavour enhancement: These add-ons can also improve our bodys ability to absorb certain nutrients, especially disease-fighting compounds known as flavonoids, from food.
