• Kitchenista Meatless Mondays: Veggie Noodle Stir-Fry

  If your kids are anything like mine, they'd be happy to eat pasta for dinner every night of the week. And while there's nothing inherently wrong with pasta, I try to give the kids a bit more variety in their diets. So instead of buttered noodles every night, sometimes I make Asian noodles instead. (That's variety, right?) Read More... Posted May 18 2009, 10:32 AM by KeriF with | with no comments Filed under: kitchenista, vegetarian, Keri Fisher, meatless mondays

• PETA Wants to Rename Fish "Sea Kittens"

  If you want people to take you seriously, don't act ridiculous.  That's my advice to People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, which recently launched a campaign to have fish renamed as "sea kittens." "Fish not only have the same ability to feel pain as a dog or a cat, but they also communicate with one another," Ashley Bryne, PETA campaign coordinator, says. "They have complex social interactions; they form bonds; they express affection by gently rubbing against one another."  Plus, they're really smart. How does she know? Because fish live in schools.

• They Say: One in Two Hundred Kids are Vegetarian

  Think your kid is just being picky when she turns up her nose at your perfectly cooked hamburgers? Think again.  News out of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) say vegetarianism is taking hold in American kids. Based on surveys in a study of alternative medicine from 2007, the CDC estimates one in two hundred kids are opting out on meat. Read More...

• Greenhouse: Seven Ways to Green Your Grocery List

  Here's an interesting phenomenon that I think reflect the sorry state of the economy here in Michigan: I am seeing a lot more people at Trader Joe's carrying Whole Foods canvas bags. And here's my theory why: Whole Foods, while a wonderful shopping experience (they smell like lavender!) and a great place to score beautiful, high quality food, is also referred to as "Whole Paycheck" for a reason. Trader Joe's, on the other hand, while certainly a less upscale destination, is also a heck of a lot cheaper.  I think Earth-conscious foodies are at least checking out ways to cut their grocery bills while not abandoning organics altogether.Environmental magazine Grist recently had a piece on greening your grocery list while  saving money.

• Strollerderby Smackdown: Light or Dark Meat?

  The Derby is one big dysfunctional family, and every day is a new round of passive-aggressive jibes, drunkenness, ostracision, backstabbing, and screaming fights. The newer bloggers have fit right into this family order, bringing their own neuroses and tantrums to the mix. It's so much that we all look forward to Thanksgiving visits with estranged relatives and pervy cousins and disapproving in-laws as relief from all the drama. So when I casually said, "Let's talk turkey: light meat, dark meat, or both?" naturally it quickly degenerated into hair-pulling.  My own perspective is simple--I only like light meat, but not because I'm, you know, prejudiced or anything. It's just that... Read More...

• Greenhouse: Me Want (Safe) Meat

  God, I love meat. I know, I know: meat is murder, it’s wrecking the environment and it’s not very healthy. I feel embarrassed these days for eating meat. Supporting industrial meat production, which uses so many natural resources and does nothing but wreck the planet, is my family's shamefully avoidable contribution to global warming. Instead of driving an SUV or clearing the walk with a gas-powered leaf blower, we grill. Even worse, our meat consumption isn't just helping to accelerate the downward spiral of health of the planet.
