scassidy@lnpnews.com When Emily Forrey's children started buying school lunches, she was shocked by how much processed food - chicken tenders, pizza, tacos - was on the school menu.
Conference and banquet food attracts many adjectives, but "inspiring" isn't typically one of them. These catered events for hundreds of people are notorious for serving limp lettuce, rubbery chicken, over-sauced beef and pasta buried in processed cheese.
GREELEY, Colo., July 26 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Pilgrim's Pride Corporation (NYSE: PPC) said it has received formal approval from the U.S. Department of Agriculture to resume exporting chicken products to Russia. The company said USDA has approved exports to Russia from Pilgrim's processing facilities in Boaz, Ala., Russellville, Ala., and Dallas, Texas. The Alabama plants already have begun packing product for Russia and Pilgrim's said it expects to resume shipments shortly. The Dallas plant will resume production today. Earlier this month, Russian officials signed a formal poultry agreement with the United States outlining new processing requirements for domestic chicken that is to be exported to Russia. Earlier this year, Russia had banned all U.S. chicken that had been processed w...
Another class of promising teenagers soon will close the door to their high school education and venture out as adults. 757 asked its writers from the Class of 2004 to reflect this week on their fondest memories of life. Here's what they had to say. It's amazing how quickly these days have passed and how it seems like only yesterday when it all began. From my first grade- school crush to my first (gasp!) failed test, I remember how I couldn't wait to graduate, and now it is like, "Wait - it's getting real, isn't it?" No longer will I be forced to settle for processed chicken patties or mystery Jell-O; what a darn good feeling.
The next time you find yourself driving on Route 4 in Turner, make it a point to stop and grab a bite to eat at Murray's Mega Mart. Fast-food chains have nothing on Roadie's chicken, the most popular offering at the store; the tenders are actual chicken and not watery, processed excuses for poultry.
Attention, grocery shoppers: You'll soon know the nationality of your steak, potatoes and kumquats. A federal law that takes effect Tuesday will require supermarkets and other big food retailers to label or otherwise display the country of origin for meat, produce and certain kinds of nuts. A number of foods will be exempt, including processed foods such as breaded chicken or packages of mixed vegetables. Still, the labeling rule is welcome news for consumers who base their decisions in part on where foods were raised or grown.
Tattle Tales - GreenChicken's processed chicken fertilizer - Brief Article
If you ever been envolved in a riot or been a victim of the police using poor crowd control, you've sampled the effects of capsaicin in the form of pepper gas. I listed pepper spray on the scale, just to give a reference of it's Scoville heat units, as compared to what many consider to be to the hottest pepper in the world, the habanero. Its close cousin, the Scotch bonnet, is used in a lot of African and Carribean cuisine such as jerk chicken. The tabasco pepper, mostly grown and processed in Avery Island, Louisiana, is my personal favorite. It lends its name to Avery Island's largest export, Tabasco sauce. I didn't list chipotle peppers which are actuary smoked jalapenos. The smoking process concentrates the capsaicin, which places the Chipotle slightly hotter than a serrano pepper. ..
Now 27-year-old [Benson] has over 700 recipes under his belt, ranging from chicken lasagna to seafood gumbo, that use only fresh, non-processed and, as much as possible, organic and hormone-free foods. On a recent Monday, lunch is turkey stew, brown rice pilaf, and steamed zucchini. But the hardest part of Benson's job may be to cook foods that the students will like and that are nutritious. When asked about the turkey stew, both Brandon Bacon and Domonique Grant, two seventh graders at the Promise Academy, had only the highest accolades. Neither had even seen Swiss chard or cabbage before eating in Benson's cafeteria. Brandon compared the taste of Swiss chard to collard greens, a vegetable he likes. But when he first ate in Benson's cafeteria his reaction wasn't positive. When I first...
