Across North Wales & Northern England flood waters (caused by rain) are increasing the danger of lead poisoning of agricultural land from disused lead mines.
While this problem has been known about for some years, little has been done to deal with it, but recent shifts in weather patterns now make this an urgent issue for aspects of the UK food chain.
After 6 years of wondering ‘why am I much more depressed in SF than in Singapore / Malaysia / Indonesia’, I’ve done everything, seen everyone, done all the therapies, but I’ve just realized that the difference is ‘I don’t eat noodles for breakfast every morning’ in only one of those places.
So, I rectified that today and it’s looking like my theory has legs. And noodles. And happiness.
Excellent food and very good atmosphere. The latter probably the result of real plants all over walls and covering the ceiling. Based in the heart of Luxembourg City, so you cannot miss it. - https://vero.co/seb_tmg/w-cDgpSHCpKgDnWs4PW9vgNQ

This is the first tempeh I’ve had on the west coast that tastes like tempeh to me. I feel like when most people here say they don’t like tempeh they really mean they haven’t had decent tempeh.
This brand is from Eugene, OR and available at Rainbow Grocery in SF and other retailers
Indonesians should look away from the price to avoid excessive shock to the system
Me: I don’t understand why anyone eats the frozen food at Trader Joe’s
Also me: *makes a meal from frozen foods from Japan, China, India and Korea’
Culturally relevant convenience food that hits your flavor profile is important (I don’t love the Chinese or Thai stuff at TJ’s, it just tastes weird to me)
>300 #House lawmakers were reimbursed ≥$5.2M for #food & #lodging while on official business in Washington last year under a new, #TaxpayerFunded prgm that doesn’t require receipts.
