		<description><![CDATA[Our Nation&#8217;s largest commercial livestock and poultry groups recently hosted briefings in Washington, D.C. to share what they consider to be the facts about using antibiotics in raising animals used for food.
The &#8220;informational&#8221; sessions were put on by the Cattlemen’s Beef Association, the Chicken Council, Pork Producers Council, Milk Producers Federation, Turkey Federation, American Meat Institute and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Being a proponent of locally, sustainably grown foods I refuse to by tomatoes from Mexico or apples from China.  If there is something I want that is hardly grown in the U.S., like plantains, I will purchase it on occasion.  That purchase does go to support the local economy in that country and I view [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So, after my Breyer&#8217;s temper tantrum I made the trip to Whole Foods on Monday.  I happily strode through the aisles checking off items on my list.  Mind you, I still checked the labels because what I consider &#8220;all natural&#8221; doesn&#8217;t really describe what most manufacturers think it means.
I started where the nuts and grains [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am an avid ice cream eater.  Always have been.  And for a very long time the only commercially available ice cream I chose to eat was Breyers simply because there was nothing &#8220;extra&#8221; in their recipe.  Just cream, eggs, sugar and whatever else was there for the particular flavor.  Not artifical flavors, but real [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was so excited Friday because just about all of our seeds and planting materials.  Visions of spring, seedlings, plants and sun began dancing in my head.  I was prepared to begin setting up my planting area in the basement and get some tomato, pepper and eggplant seedlings started.
Of course, I woke up today to [...]]]></description>
