Apparently, today is the anniversary of the first canned shipment of pineapple sent from Hawaii way back in 1895. As far as I’ve been able to find, nobody’s entirely sure that the day is actually correct but it’s as good an excuse as any to get out a tin of pineapple out of the cupboard and eat it.
I personally love pineapple, especially the tinned variety. Yes, I know the fresh stuff if

Today I canned pickled beets. I decided it's really a labor of love... if you don't love them, it's not worth the labor! Beets are one of the more affordable vegetables in the store and at $.50 a can it's not a big expense... hmm does that mean that beets are not very well liked by the general population? LOL. I grew up eating beets and love them! Preferably hot with lots of butter, salt and pe
Canned vegetables are high in sodium, while frozen vegetables (without added sauces) usually have no added sodium. Buy the large economy size bags, pour out the amount you need for your meal, close the bag with zip closure or twist tie and stick back in the freezer until next time!
Making this change will significantly reduce your sodium intake, promote blood pressure control and heart health!

Beginning this summer British universities will no longer offer an undergraduate degree in women's studies.Critics argue the reason was dwindling interest with students finding the subject of feminism and the struggle for equality, "predictable, tiresome and dreary" while others claim it was the universities fault for under promoting the studies program and students who preferred to pay tuition for courses which actually helped them obtain a degree in the job market."[Taking] women's studies as a separate course may not feel as relevant to women who go to university to help them enter the job market," said Jean Edelstein, an author and journalist.

High Mercury Level in Canned Tuna Recently I’ve read a health news article about high mercury level in canned tuna. I was alarmed because I’m always eating canned tuna. I don’t want to eat pork or beef because it may affect my current condition. I’m actually a kidney stone former and the doctor said, if I just have a good diet, there would be a great possibility that I will not form a kidney stone again. The last time I was diagnosed was November 2007 and the kidney stone actually passed out after my shockwave operation. It was so painful while the stone is passing through and I don’t want to experience that pain again. As part of my diet, my doctor told me not to eat fatty foods and those foods with high uric level. He also suggests not eating so much food with high calcium

Process for 3 hours in boiling water bath. Then, when you're ready for soup or beet hash, cook you meat and dump a jar in the juice and meat and your soup's ready.

How to Make Fish Nuggets
Fish Nuggets is made up by mixing minced fish meat with other ingredients. It generally comes in bite-sized rectangular shape. When fried, nuggets are golden brown in color and have a crunchy texture.
Ingredients:
1965-ben találkozott három megszállott blues-kedvelő zenész: Alan C. Wilson, akit szódásüveg-talp szemüvege miatt csak Vak Bagoly (Blin' Owl) néven ismertek, és aki szájharmonikán, gitáron és zongorán játszott s énekelt; a hatalmas termetű Bob Hite, a Medve (The Bear) aki énekelt, de ha kellett gitározott is és Henry Vestin gitáros, a Napraforgó (Sunflower). Zenekaruk, a Canned Heat zenéjében egészen egyedülálló módon vegyítette a hagyományos blues, az elektromos rock és a boogie elemeit. A zenekar fénykora 1967-70 közé esik, s bár a banda kisebb-nagyobb megszakításokkal ma is koncertezik, az alapítók közül már senki nem él: Wilson 1970-ben máig tisztázatlan körülmények között, kábítószer túladagolás miatt halt meg, Hite 1981-ben szívrohamban, Vestin pedig 1997-ben egy párizsi koncert másnapján halt meg.Ez az album a fénykor felvételeiből ad válogatást.A számok:01.Big Road Blues02.Can't Hold On03.Got My Mojo Working
MSNBC may have finally had it with productivity in the office dropping due to all their employees falling fast asleep around 6PM EST because it sounds like they’re getting ready to give Tucker Carlson the boot. Phil Griffin, the senior vice president of the network, stated that he sees Keith Olbermann and Chris Matthews as MSNBC figureheads. When asked about Tucker Carlson, Griffin immediately became drowsy and almost fell out of his chair but after some smelling salts, he stated that Tucker is part of the MSNBC brand “right now”.
Carlson apparently said goodbye at the end of one of his shows in early November to “the eight of you that watch us”. At least everyone can agree that Tucker sucks then, including Tucker himself. At the most all I could ever tell about him was that he was a piss poor arguer and had the personality of a puddle of mud. His arguments consist of bitching about something related to the democrats or Hillary Clinton, then talking o
In his article YouTube U. Andy Kessler suggests it’s the professors. Some highlights:
Without much fanfare, college lectures are being put online, for free. MIT lectures can be downloaded from iTunes University, and you can watch Cal professors pontificate on your computer via YouTube. Is this some new trend? Do colleges feel threatened by Wikipedia? Something funny is going on. No one gives anything away for free without some ulterior motive.
I mean, don’t they know college is big business? Right now, 17 million students are involved in higher education, some higher than others. As a business, college is growing faster than sales of multicolored Crocs. Since 1980, the population of students under 25 has grown 40 percent–and for those over 25, it’s up even more at 52 percent. Is this what your neighbors are doing during the day? Could be. Even better (for colleges, anyway), since 2002 tuition has jumped 35 percent in real terms (that’s adjusted for in

At least 4 people have been taken to hospital in Indiana and Texas because of botulism poisoning associated with eating Castleberry’s Hot Dog Chili Sauce.
The food was produced by Castleberry’s Food Company of Augusta, Georgia, and distributed across the nation.

Their products are sold in more than 17,000 stores in the US and Canada.
This operation could involve tens of millions of cans that pose an urgent public health treat to both humans and pets. Currently 4 varieties of ‘Natural Balance’ canned dog food are being recalled.

Brian Cashman is gone after this year as the general manager of the Yankees unless by some miracle they get to the World Series. As of July 3rd they are 11 games out of first in the AL East and 8.5 out of the Wild Card. Their pitching is not good so barring an ARod like offensive explosion by multiple players, the Yankees will be left out of the playoffs this year and Cashman will be gone (along with Joe Torre, but that’s a different topic).
Thing is, Cashman has done a great job with the Yankees not only in the past, but right now too. Yes, the team sucks this year, but he is building it for the future. The offseason trades of Jaret Wright, Randy Johnson and Gary Sheffield not only
Now that teams are dropping out of their divisional races right and left, we may start to see a manager here and there get canned. The first likely name to be let go is Orioles manager Sam Perlozzo, who has the Orioles sitting in last place in the AL East at 29-40. At 15.5 games back of the Red Sox, the O's are as good as done in the American League, and only the Royals and Rangers have a worst winning percentage than the Orioles.The hot seat has been under Perlozzo for some time now, and many felt that if he was unable to get the job done this season, he was going to be let go. Getting the job done means simply being an average team, around .500 or maybe better. Not many thought that the Orioles would challenge the Red Sox and Yankees, but also a lot of people did not think the team would be 11 games under .500 and getting worse before the 4th of July.Things have gotten so bad for Perlozzo that fans have begun to boo him anytime he takes the field, and someone fan has gone so far
Words are emerging that the Audi RS4 production has already stopped to make way for the RS6, which will debut at Frankfurt this September. The RS4 has been regarded one of the finest sports cars by both Audi enthusiasts and the media. The deletion of the RS4 couldn't come at a worse time for Audi as BMW is in their final stages of developing their M3 Sedan and Mercedes-Benz is preparing to unveil the C63 AMG at Frankfurt.Autocar reports that the Avant and Cabrio models will continue on, but we are unsure whether they will be canned anytime soon. According to the report, the decision has been made because the RS4 would cannibalise the sales of the RS6. We'd have to question that as the RS4 and RS6 would have a massive price gap and they would not cannibalise each other's sales if Audi markets them right. There is a market for the RS4 which consists of the BMW M3 Sedan and the Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG. The RS6 will have its share of competitors like the BMW M5 and the Mercedes-Benz E63

We at the Blue Buffalo Company have just learned that American Nutrition Inc.

This is product tampering, and it apparently has been going on for some time.

Transitioning Dry Food Addicts to Canned Food
This is the hard part. Cats, like children, often resist what is best for them. The two most frequent comments that I hear from people when trying to convince them to feed their cats a healthier diet are “my cat won’t eat canned food” and “but my cat really likes his dry food.” Children really like potato chips and ice cream but that certainly does not mean those food items constitute optimal nutrition.
The transition process often involves much more than just plunking down a ne
BREAKING NEWS: Natural Balance Recall Expands to Canned Food and Treats
April 17th, 2007
Itchmo has confirmed with Natural Balance that their recall has expanded and now covers the following items for all dates:
* Venison and Brown Rice Treats for Dogs (New today)
* Venison and Brown Rice Canned Formula for Dogs (New today)
* Venison and Brown Rice Dry Food for Dogs (Reported Sunday)
* Venison and Green Pea Dry Food for Cats (Reported Sunday)
The problem stems from melamine found in the rice gluten used by Natural Balance. The ingredient was produced by a US vendor, according to Natural Balance.
See more on this story at USAToday. The initial report was wrong — this rice was imported from China and it was a new vendor.
Wilbur-Ellis CEO John Thacher said his company sold the concentrate to five pet-food makers, but that most of it went to two firms. One of the primary companies was Diamond Pet Foods, which packs some of the Natural Balance product but doesn’t use the conce

A study from a well known source (Choice Magazine) in Australia has found that canned fruit and vegetables can be more nutritious than fresh.
The study tested cooked and uncooked, canned, frozen and week-old and fresh vegetables for the contents of certain nutrients.
All canned and frozen vegetables tested contained more or equal percentages of vitamins and anti-oxidants, with the exeption of broccoli. That doesn’t surprise me as I’ve tried frozen broccoli before and thought it tasted and smelt odd. Not scientific, I realise, but my own personal input

CBS’s new reality tv show, “Armed and Famous”, got cancelled after only airing a total of four shows, which are three shows short of what CBS had planned on airing. It doesn’t help that this show runs the same time as Fox’s famous TV show “American Idol”.
For the first two shows the TV ratings where at number 44, but the third show dropped dramatically to a 70. The reason for the low ratings is because of American Idol, which is why CBS’s spokesman Chris Ender said “Going up against `American Idol’ was a tall task for the show.”
However, VH1 is planning on airing five episodes at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday including four previously aired shows and one new episode. VH1 could also show the last two shows if the producers are able to have them finished in time.
Oh well, I don’t understand why the show would air at the same time as “American Idol” anyways and expect to have good ratings!!
