Tidly Bits from Happy Cow 08/14/2008
Link to Happy Cow The Vienna Vegetable Orchestra makes music out of fresh produce - drilled, cut, peeled, and scraped into colorful instruments. Carrots are hollowed out and made into recorders, and big pumpkins become bongos. And, at the end of each show, the Orchestra cooks up a batch of veggie soup for the audience. watch video Warning about plastics and microwave, a cancer update from John Hopkins Hospital, USA - Use no plastic containers in microwave. No water bottles in freezer. No plastic wrap in microwave. Dioxin chemicals cause cancer, especially breast cancer. Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies. Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic. The combination of fat, high heat, and plastics releases dioxin into the food & ultimately into the cells of the body. Use glass containers for heating food. You get the same results, only without the dioxin. Plastic wrap is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food. Try not use the microwave at all because it changes and destroys our food.
