The Taboo of Feeding Kids Junk Food
In the '70s and '80s, Spaghetti-Os, Twinkies, cheese in a can, and sugared cereals were tossed into many shopping carts due to convenience. But now, many of the mamas who grew up sipping soda are leading the no-juice campaign.

Dream Wedding Cake: A 42-Pound Cheeseburger
As a savory food lover and a fan of people with a good sense of humor, I love this story. Tom and Kerry Watts of Norwich, CT both love burgers and decided that substituting a 42-pound cheeseburger (the equivalent of 100 quarter pounders) for a wedding cake was the way to go. Tom, a firefighter, said of their unusual choice: "Not only did I get to marry the woman of my dreams but I also got to have the burger of my dreams in the same day."

Last time I went to the store, I spotted these doughnuts in flavors such as Hawaiian Punch, Orange Crush, and Dr Pepper. At first, I was curious and somewhat puzzled: Why would anyone think to pair soda flavors with doughnuts?

I now have another motivation to steer clear of packaged, processed and engineered foods – the environment.

Would You Rather Eat Peanuts or Cracker Jacks?
Celebrating America's birthday got me thinking about America's pastime, and unfortunately, that means that "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" is stuck in my head. Though the lyric demands peanuts and Cracker Jacks, which one would you pick if forced to choose?

Let's Dish: What Are Your Guilty Pleasure Foods?
Whenever I interview chefs, I always ask: "What's your favorite guilty pleasure food?" Of course, my definition of "guilty pleasure" is quite different from, say, FitSugar's. I don't consider it a guilty pleasure if it's high in fat or calories; that is a mere pleasure.
