CDC: Bread beats out chips as biggest salt source
Posted by admin / Under Bread Pan
[snip] Bread and rolls are the No. 1 source of salt in the American diet, accounting for more than twice as much sodium as salty junk food like potato chips. That surprising finding comes in a government report released Tuesday that includes a list of the top 10 sources of sodium. Salty snacks actually came in at the bottom of the list compiled by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "Potato chips, pretzels, and popcorn - which we think of as the saltiest foods in our diet - are only No. 10," said CDC Director Dr. Thomas Frieden. Breads...

Five ideas Obama considered but utlimately rejected for tonights speech (vanity)
Posted by admin / Under Bread Pan
In an effort to ease the mind of the 14 million unemployed Obama and his staff came up with various ways to distract the American public, these were the top 5 that were rejected: 1) Order the NFL to continually pan the cheerleaders between plays (like they did back in the 70' and 80's) 2) Order the creation of "LOST 2" (Jack realizes he must go back to the island as John Locke never really died, it was all a ploy to get them to leave the island). 3) Order "Cash for Clunkers 2" (Americans with wives over 50 get...

Evidence Found for Undiscovered Comet That May Threaten Earth
Posted by admin / Under Bread Pan
A surprise meteor shower spotted in February was likely caused by cosmic "bread crumbs" dropped by an undiscovered comet that could potentially pose a threat to Earth, astronomers announced today (July 27). The tiny meteoroids that streaked through Earth's atmosphere for a few hours on Feb. 4 represent a previously unknown meteor shower, researchers said. The "shooting stars" arrived from the direction of the star Eta Draconis, so the shower is called the February Eta Draconids, or FEDs for short. The bits of debris appear to have been shed by a long-period comet. Long-period comets whiz by the sun very...

Bread crisis in Tehran
Posted by admin / Under Bread Pan
The price of flour has jumped 50-fold and the price of bread has increased four-fold, according to the Iranian regime’s news sources. Six months after the Iranian regime implemented a plan to lift subsidies, the regime’s media outlets have made revelations about a bread crisis in Tehran. According to these sources, despite a rise in bread prices the quality remains the same. The regime has not made good on its promises to compensate for rising fuel and electricity prices, leading to more pressures on bread makers. The leader of Tehran’s Bread Makers Union has resigned in this regard.

Posted by admin / Under Bread Pan
Here is a link to a bread recipe I just successfully tried: http://www.motherearthnews.com/Real-Food/Artisan-Bread-In-Five-Minutes-A-Day.aspx The recipe is just mix and let sit for 2-3 hours, then rerigerate until needed. The dough makes multiple loaves and lasts 2-3 weeks in the fridge. It also freezes well. Here is a link to homemade, slow cooker yogurt I have been successfully using for a while: http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/2008/10/you-can-make-yogurt-in-your-crockpot.html It is so easy and so yummy!

TGIF Rock-n-Roll Oldies: Bread - 1972
Posted by admin / Under Bread Pan
Bread was a rock band formed in Los Angeles, CA. They enjoyed 13 hit songs on the Billboard Hot 100 chart between 1970 and 1977, in the process pioneering a new genre later to become known as 'soft rock'.
