 In cooking, the process of clarification entails straining out extraneous muck from liquids so that they might be pure, clear and ideal for consumption. With this series on food terminology and trends we're attempting to do the same. As food writers and reporters, we toss out a lot of terms - sustainable, pescetarian, free-range - and just assume that everyone's on the same page. If they're not, the conversation suffers, and we can't have that, now can we? Here's a round-up of concepts and words we've explained thus far. On the menu next - more on "organic," what "all-natural" means (or not) and...you tell us. Is there something you'd like to see clarified? Let us know in the comments below, and we'll do our best to define. |

It would be nice if you got off the curly fry issue and whisky and told the truth about the agribusiness conglomerates telling us to eat and products which are making us ill and killing us off at young ages, along with the resulting destruction of the environment from animal crap pollution and deforestation to plant foods for factory farm animals.

I really like this. Could y'all do an article about Celiac (coeliac) disease and gluten intolerance? My fiance has the former, and I think it'd be cool for people to know what the interesting (and yummy) ingredients and items at the grocery store are.
