Another beautiful icy sunset. I'd like to hope this snow and ice will be gone very soon, but as I am typing this it has just started to snow. Sigh.
What’s good around the web is a weekly series where I share some of what I’ve been reading around the web. Each week I’ll be posting links to five nutrition related articles, good recipes, and just general good reads. I hope you enjoy it! If you’ve got at article or recipe you’d like to see featured, please email me.
1. A couple of food bloggers started a petition asking Kraft to remove food dyes from their macaroni and cheese. Kraft met with the bloggers, but maintains the dyes are safe.
2. Apparently, there is no such thing as 'miracle foods'. (Amen!)
3. How often do you eat in front of a screen? According to this research, eating in front of a screen is one of the quickest ways to pack on the pounds.
4. Why do GMOs need protection? Good question.
5. Eating more fiber may lower your risk of first-time stroke.

So-called miracle foods are a bee in my bonnet too. And I was glad to see Dr Oz named and slightly shamed in this article. His show is too sensationalist and unbalanced for its own good, imho. Great clicks my dear.

I agree. Dr. Oz says blueberries are the next best thing, everyone is eating blueberries. Why don't we just all eat nourishing real food and chill the heck out?
