Invasive Lionfish Now On Whole Foods Menu

Invasive Lionfish Now On Whole Foods Menu

Posted by | Jun 22, 2016 | ,

Until recently, Lionfish- an invasive species native to the Pacific and Indian oceans, that has thrived in U.S. coastal waters- had no natural predators. But thanks to Whole Foods stores in Florida, that’s all changed! Whole Foods is now selling the “white, buttery meat” of the fish and the U.S. government has given their stamp of approval. The U.S. government, and NOAA desperately want to stop the lionfish from preying on native fish and shellfish, so they’ve come out with a PSA of sorts: The government believes the aquarium trade is to blame for introducing the fish to the U.S....

The Best Blueberry Lemon Bread You’ve Ever Tasted. (And it’s Paleo!)

Posted by | Jun 21, 2016 | , ,

by Katja Heino: Before all of the blueberries disappear, I had to get one more summer dessert in. Take a look at this beautiful Paleo Blueberry Lemon Bread. I’m a creature of habit, and the small rituals of life make me happy.  Every Sunday morning I wake up, eat breakfast, and head to my local Framer’s Market.  The first place we go is the gluten free bakery booth for Pao de Queijo (or Brazilian cheese bread.)  My little one gets one plain and one olive.  She eats the plain one right away.  If you haven’t tried these chewy little breads made...

When we visit animals at the zoo, we have the opportunity to be voyeurs and we convince ourselves that they don’t mind- after all we are getting an education. But the truth is that its a cruel and unhealthy practice for the animals. Thankfully, a zoo in China is switching it up by having the visitors in the cages when they go see animals.
