Anyone interested in Big Food and their influence on government regulators (Who are supposed to be looking out for us!!!) check out this guy: Dr. Yoni Freedhoff at…
    in Eating Healthy is Too Expensive Comment by TinaM April 2008
  • I am sure with you on that! I NEVER have the problem of racking my brains to figure out how to "use up" my calories!!

  • How do you cook it? My father-in-law keeps us supplied with deer, moose, elk, and I am always looking for ways to use them that don't require the wonderful sauces he makes (German-trained chef - dangerous to those of us with high cholesterol!!!)
    in Has anyone tried ground bison? Comment by TinaM February 2008
  • Ground bison has less than half the fat of beef. In fact, bison contains less fat than skinless chicken, turkey, or even halibut. Because it’s so lean, make sure you cook it for about a third less time than you would beef - otherwise it tends to be dry, which is the biggest issue people tend to have with it. If you’re a…
