User post: Gearing up for the 4th: BBQ chicken

When I was a kid, my parents owned a fried chicken restaurant for a couple of years ("TJ's Fried Chicken"... I don't know who TJ was, they bought the business with the name). I ate a little too much chicken during those years. I would go to the restaurant after school to help out…

The worst thing about the Fancy Food Show? Mediocrity. Most products aren't awful; they're just OK. Disappointing. Unimaginative. Bland. So Esther Sung and I searched high and low for innovative products, new flavors, healthy solutions, smart packaging, and added value. We honored…

4 healthy steak recipes to please your manly appetite

After college I moved to San Francisco where my Texas-born, steak-loving friend Amy introduced me to the city’s manly steakhouses. We may not have looked like we fit in—two young, single, wine-sipping women perched in the high-backed leather booths, surrounded by dark wood, ornate carpets and groups of men slugging back straight Scotch. But when the bone-in rib-eyes arrived, we could hold our own. I blush to think of the huge slabs of red meat I put away at each sitting.

If it fits through a straw, it can’t contain very many calories, right? Wrong! I find it downright disturbing that some of my favorite summer cocktails are chock-full of calories, to the point that I could trade just one of them in for a meal. Yep, that’s right, a meal. Save yourself some calories with these healthy cocktails...

Cancer (June 22 - July 22)
Being indecisive today will actually be a good thing. You'll have an embarrassment of riches to choose from, each one better than the next. Italian or Chinese? French or Greek? Thai or Tex-Mex? Whatever you decide, prepare for wonderful culinary pleasures. You may feel ready to take on new adventures today. But make sure you know the difference between what you can handle and what's out of your range. There's a big difference between bungee jumping and making the perfect rhubarb pie with homemade crust. Bungee jumping will be much easier.
