		<title>Why eat local foods?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A poster with a succinct idea concerning the why  of local foods at yesterday&#8217;s Farmer&#8217;s Market (an  especially pastoral picture captioned, HOMELAND SECURITY &#8212;  Eat local foods), made me remember the Tufts University Food Awareness Project  data:

		<title>Raw Milk versus Pasteurized Milk</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Talk to almost anyone about raw milk, and you&#8217;ll probably be told that raw milk is &#34;dangerous&#34; &#8212; followed tentatively by &#8230; &#34;Isn&#8217;t it?&#34;

		<title>SB 201: clarifying production standards for raw milk</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Say what you will about raw milk, and there are naysayers &#8212; especially emanating from the smear-and-fear propagandists who work in the Food and Drug Administration &#8212; but Senator Dean Florez is spearheading a California State Bill 201 which will bring sanity into the safe production and selling of raw milk in California.
