Have You Fallen For These 4 Real Food Myths?
Let’s face it. Making Real Food can feel overwhelming. We are busy people. We have limited budgets. We have constantly shifting priorities. Feeding our families is a constant balancing act. Do we opt for convenience at the cost of a little nutrient-density? Do we sacrifice time with our families in order to feed them more nourishing food? We’ve all been there. Imagine these scenarios. ONE. It’s a half hour before dinner. You’ve had a hectic day. No meat’s defrosted. You’ve got tons of fresh veggies about to go bad. Everyone is starving and tired. What do you do?
GIVEAWAY: Stainless Steel LunchBots Set
Do you pack meals for yourself, your kiddos, or your spouse? I do. To do so, we rely heavily on stainless steel stackable tiffins, convenient thermoses to keep soups and stews warm, and these amazing stainless steel bento-styled boxes from Lunchbots. Everyone knows that to-go lunches have the potential to be full of waste. When I was a kid, my brother and I must have gone through thousands of brown paper bags and plastic sandwich baggies between the two of us — just to ensure that our food could be carried to school. Pile styrofoam lunch trays, plates, or take out containers, plastic utensils for eating, and to-go cups with lids and straws on top of all that, and you have a veritable mountain of trash. This week, I am excited to be giving away a set of stainless steel bento-styled boxes from Lunchbots — valued at $95 — to one of you lucky readers!

Coconut Lime Rice
Coconut rice is now my family’s go-to dinner starch, second only to sweet potatoes. It can be jazzed up many ways. Add mangos and call it Thai food, fermented red chili paste and call it Vietnamese. My favorite way to serve coconut rice is with lime and cilantro, so that’s what I’m sharing here.

Your Appendix Isn’t Useless: New Scientific Theory Gains Ground
Remembering back to my days as a student of human anatomy and physiology, I recall clearly our lecture on the human appendix. The appendix was basically seen as a benign, but essentially useless leftover of human evolution. In some people, at some times, it would inexplicably grow inflamed and acutely painful. The remedy? Surgical removal. And guess what? Unlike removing an organ like the gallbladder, no one missed their appendix. Removal didn’t seem to cause any adverse health effects. Then, back in 2007, researchers put forward an interesting theory about the appendix. They argued that it did serve a purpose. The appendix, they said, is a repository for beneficial bacteria, providing support for bacterial growth and facilitating the re-population of the gut with good bacteria in the event that the intestinal tract is “purged” following exposure to a pathogen.
Photographer Arrested For Taking Pictures of Feedlots
National Geographic photographer George Steinmetz was recently arrested for taking aerial photographs of a feedlot in Kansas. He took the aerial photographs for a series on food issues that the magazine has scheduled for next year. In an age when the government has no qualms tapping your private cell phone calls and monitoring your internet usage without a warrant, this government support of a lack of transparency on the part of giant agribusinesses is both a little alarming and a tad hypocritical.
