The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau is revising its regulations to require the disclosure of the presence of cochineal extract and carmine on the labels of any alcohol beverage product containing one or both of these color additives. This rule responds to a final rule issued by the Food and Drug Administration. Consumers who are allergic to cochineal extract or carmine will now be able to identify and thus avoid alcohol beverage products that contain these color additives.

Traditionally food safety had to do with minimizing the immediate risks arising from consuming a risky food. Usually it requires attention on how to prevent the distribution of food that is not fresh, how to avoid the existence of toxics and pest control materials in foods, and monitoring that the various industrial additives, which are added during production, do not exceed safety regulations. This distinction between "good food" and "bad food" as based on the quality of the food is important in reducing the risk arising from eating something that is dangerous for people, but it ignores another kind of risk which is due to over-eating. The following paper expands the definition of food safety by distinguishing between the quality and the quantity of food consumed. Although it is diffic...

Found: Mary Clancey from Torrington wrote, "I once had a wonderful meal at Max a Mia, (70 E. Main St., Avon) Everything there is wonderful, but the bocce ball dessert is simply to die for! Any chance you can get the recipe for me?" Mary, now you can make this decadent dessert since Chef Mike shared his secret. Actually, this dessert is the only one not made in-house. Rich Rosenthal, owner of the Max Restaurant Group, owner of eight restaurants in the Hartford area, prides himself on serving the best, and in his opinion, they could not make it better than Bertolotti Desserts of Fairview, N.J., which makes this superb dessert they call Bertolotti Tartufo.

Just like a lot of little girls in Linthicum, Kelsey Scheitlin grew up dreaming about the day she would marry her prince charming. But she probably never imagined that Bermuda and a unique online contest could be part of that day.
She and her fiance, Jason Ellis of Jackson, Miss., are finalists in an online contest sponsored by popular wedding planning website TheKnot.com and the Bermuda Department of Tourism.

Everything had to be sterile and handled with care, from her hands that removed the cooked foods to the glass jars sealed with sterile lids. My father, not as gifted as my mom in canning, would harvest purple grapes from my grandmother's yard in New Jersey and make some of the best tasting wine to be used for the coming holidays. I can't remember him adding sulfites to his wine or storing it in plastic bottles.
Sulfites come in the form of sodium and potassium sulfites as well as metabisulfites. These chemicals can be found in coffee, tea, cake mixes, frozen pie dough, frozen seafood, dried fruits and nuts, sauerkraut, cider, wines and a host of other foods. To avoid sulfites, one must read labels carefully.
In researching this chemical, it was revealed to me that if sulfites were remov...
