From the Ether

[Today is all about food articles from Salon.]

A Salon look at the American appetite for cereal. Really good article, with info on how cereal is made, what's in it (and not in it), the tricks the industry pull to make cereal appealing, and other lovely facts -- all written in that Salon snark.

Another Salon story: what's really going on with Annie's Mac & Cheese? The article is definitely a bit crazy, but still worth reading.

I love, "They think they're talking us down from a bag brimming with egg mcmuffins and hash browns or a jumbo size snickers and a 16 oz coke."

Hilarious :)

i enjoyed reading both of those

had a great chatter w/my grrlie 'bout the silliness presented re: sodium levels for cheerios v doritos

and, i very nearly was motivated enough to make homemade mac n cheese

recovered my senses enough to raid the salad bar, instead
