Food Issues of Contemporary Society

This is the online forum of "Food Issues," a tool that we hope will stimulate class discussion and house our small intellectual community. It will be only as fruitful as we make it...so post with abandon.

Martha Stewart....gotta love her!

Do you know what fruits and vegetables grow during each of the seasons? I certainly was not as informed as I think I should have been. Then I did a brief internet search and ended up at one of my favorite web resources for food: MarthaStewart.com

Follow this link: What's in Season and learn about all the different seasonal goodies. It's useful and may very well change how you look at your asparagus during the fall....

    Was this a real magazine cover for the June issue, or is this just a spoof? I've often wondered about Martha Stewart's (very noticeable) increase in popularity after her release from prison - did her time in prison make her more of an approachable "flawed human" and less of the boring, one-sided, somewhat-distant, (and/or) old-fashioned domestic she may have appeared to be to the public before then?
