If I put the information together (interpreted the flickr tags) correctly Burger King is selling lamb sandwiches in Singapore. I learn something new every day.

Carcinogen Warning Sought for Fries, Chips - Los Angeles Times

SAN FRANCISCO — California Atty. Gen. Bill Lockyer sued nine snack- and fast-food giants Friday, saying the law requires them to tell the public that their potato chips and French fries contain a toxic chemical.

In a suit filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, Lockyer sought a court order compelling the companies to place warnings on their cooked potato products because they contain higher levels of a suspected carcinogen, acrylamide, than other foods.

The defendants include Frito-Lay Inc., KFC Corp., McDonald's Corp., Wendy's International and Procter & Gamble Distributing Co.

"I am not telling people to stop eating potato chips and French fries," Locker said in a statement. "I know from personal experience that, while these snacks may not be a necessary part of a healthy diet, they sure taste good."

But he pointed out that Proposition 65, a ballot initiative passed by voters in 1986, requires businesses of all types to provide the public with "clear and reasonable" warnings before exposing them to potentially dangerous substances.

Whole Foods

From KIPlog at FOODBLOG.........

Is Whole Foods The Wal Mart of Grocery Stores? I was going to respond in the comments, but am a little late to the discussion.

You can't compare Whole Foods to WalMart because WF isn't going to run the carnecias and mom n' pops out of town. It just isn't in competition with places that sell half a lamb for the price they sell a half a rack of chops.

I was just reading my blog roll and I realized I had the The Food Whore and The Kitchen Chick lumped in with I Blame The Patriarchy. I suppose I'd be called a bad person if I suggested a food blog cat fight.

I Blame The Patriarchy: Quesadillaphilia

There's a lot of iceberg lettue bashing going on these days. You can't scratch an au courant chef without them sniffing about the shortcomings of their 1960's childhood diet and telling you that mescalun at $15.00 a pound is the only way to go. But Twisty knows at least one thing iceberg is good for and you get to have quesadillas with it.
