“Chefs are outdoing themselves with creative and delicious ways of using food waste. One of Fallow’s signature dishes is a cod’s head glazed with homemade sriracha butter, using fish heads from Scotland that are normally thrown back into the sea. They also make a potato bread using leftover potato peelings and salmon mousse using fish bellies which are often discarded. At Native, they run a ‘Scrappy Hour’ with a menu featuring zero waste cocktails and ‘wasting snacks’.” – Crab Communications […]

In a perfect world, we wouldn’t eat right before bed. “This is inherently problematic,” explains Dr. Felicia Stoler, registered dietitian, nutritionist and exercise physiologist. “Late-night foods should not spend too much time in the stomach [because they can] potentially cause reflux.” If you absolutely *need* a snack, Stoler recommends having something balanced with protein, carbs and not too much fat to hold you over through the night. “Yogurt, milk (plain or flavored), cottage cheese and nut butters are examples of […]
Former McDonald’s CEO Jim Skinner analyzes the state of the fast-food industry as the U.S. economy slows on ‘The Claman Countdown.’ The National Owners Association called California’s recently-passed AB 1228 “draconian” and costly to franchisees in a memo distributed to its members. “The new ‘AB 1228’ legislation has been voted into law and will result in a devastating financial blow to California McDonald’s franchisees at a projected annual cost of $250,000 per McDonald’s restaurant,” the advocacy group representing some 1,000 […]

By melting low-fat cheese over your egg whites, spreading margarine on “light” bread, using plant-based crumbles instead of turkey or tofu in your tacos, and powering up with plant-based energy drinks instead of coffee, you may think you’re making healthy choices. But, according to registered dietitians, some of these so-called “healthy” foods might not actually be a better option. In some cases, you might be missing out on important nutrients. In others, some of these “healthy” products are more processed […]
WASHINGTON — Roberta Wagner, senior vice president for regulatory and scientific affairs with the International Dairy Foods Association (IDFA), provided oral testimony today to the 2025 Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee (DGAC)—a panel of 20 nutrition and public health experts tasked with providing a scientific report to inform the federal government’s next update to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA). In her testimony, Wagner stressed that 90 percent of Americans do not consume enough dairy to meet dietary recommendations, according to […]
The average American consumed about 14.3 pounds of yogurt in 2021. And is that any surprise? This dairy product is remarkably versatile—you can use it as a base for your morning bowl of granola, as a convenient portable snack for work, as a healthy dessert, or even as a base for a homemade salad dressing or marinade. Plus, nowadays, there are more options than ever to choose from, from Greek to Icelandic skyr, full-fat to non-fat, and high-protein to lactose-free. […]
Oh, September. You are madness. You are back-to-school and back-to-work after August laze and Labor Day. You are crisp new notebooks and backpacks. You are closed-toe shoes. You are calendars cross-referenced, car pools arranged, nut-free lunches assembled. Figuring out dinner every day is already a chore, but in hectic September, it can be a trial. I write a New York Times Cooking newsletter called Five Weeknight Dishes, with five recipes for busy people who still want something good to eat. […]
Eating less processed food, alcohol, and red meat and consuming more plant-based foods may help manage inflammation in some instances. Anti-inflammatory diets are typically not specific regimens but rather eating styles. The Mediterranean diet and the DASH diet are examples of anti-inflammatory diets. Dietary changes may help manage both short- and long-term inflammation in many cases, although its efficacy as a management tool will depend on a person’s overall health and the causes of inflammation. For example, chronic inflammation can […]
According to a new study published in The Journal of Nutrition percent fat-free mass loss, following diet-induced weight loss, is not a significant predictor of weight regain at 1-year in men and women with obesity. A growing body of evidence suggests that fat-free mass plays a role in the drive to eat and is likely to modulate energy intake and body weight via its effects on energy expenditure and through feedback signaling between fat-free mass and appetite control regions of […]
