Supermarket

Historically, there are many things a supermerket has that you couldnt get in the past. If you wanted chicken, you would have to buy a whole chicken and pluck it. In the super market you have a package of 6 chicken wings. There are products from all over the world. How fast are food products evolving? When will a new flavor for something be produced? there are so many more choices of the same foods than there were years ago.
There are a lot of products in the supermarket and each has their section. within their section, there are healthy choices and unhealthy choices. I noticed that there was an equal amount of unhealthy and healthy choices for some products like cerial.

Tomato plants

Tomato plants are a summer plant. We could start when it gets warm around june and they will be ready to pick around 60 days later. We could start even earlier if we plant them inside and transplant them when the weather gets warmer. Certain types of tomatos need different amounts of space between plants. From 12 inches apart to 5-6 feet. when planting, use fertilizer. Use stakes if needed. Water thouroughly and regularly when it hasnt rained for a while. Watch out for tomato hornworms, verticillium and fusarium wilts, early blight, septoria leafspot.

Introduction to Locally Available Goat Milk Cheese

D. The goats are fed “local hay” and “regular grain”. The hay and grain contain very little pesticides. The Farmer said getting the healthiest types of food for the goats are very hard to get. The goats are not treated with hormones and antibiotics. The milk is pasturized which means it is heated to a certain point to kill bacteria. Then the cheese is formed. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1167088873055109674 http://www.realfoodliving.com/goatmilk.htm http://www.idfa.org/facts/cheese/cf34.pdf

Pasta

I boiled the water, dumped the pasta into the pot and the pasta grew over the 10 minutes. A foam covered the top when it was ready. I dumped the pasta and hot water into a strainer then i ate it with tomato sauce and parmesean cheese.

I ate nachos. When I took a bite of one nacho, it had cheese, and a jalepeno pepper on it. When I bit into it, the nacho chip it crunched and the cheese got spread out and the chip kept crunching and the pepper got crushed and mixed in with the crumbled chip and cheese. Then I felt the spicy heat from the pepper. I chewed faster and everything became mushier and i swallowed because I needed a drink of water. Later I had two peppers and the heat was worse so I needed more water. When I ate the chip with cheese on it, the crunchy part kind of made lots of little pieces that went all over my mouth. The not so crunchy part just became mush and spread out all over but the sting from the peppers stayed in the back of my throat a long time and water didnt help it until i was done eating.

My Meal


I went to Nathans/Pizza Hut on saturday night. I got a chili cheese dog and i split a pizza with some friends. The chili cheese dog tasted good. the comination of bread, hot dog, chili, and cheese really hit the spot. I couldn't really seperate the flavors after I took a bite but the combination is what makes it taste good. The pizza wasn't the best pizza, but it was ok. I didnt have the beef half, I just ate the plain slices. The sauce wasn't as flavorful as I'm used to but I can't explain why. The cheese wasn't the same as a regular pizza either. The pizza tasted like pizza just because it had sauce, dough and cheese. I can't describe how it tasted other than the individual ingrediants. Pizza Hut pizza doesnt taste as good as other pizza and i dont know why.
