Crazy Exercise Gadget Treadmill Bike

In our quest to find more and better crazy exercise gadgets Bicycle Forest's Treadmill Bike ($2,500 Canadian) was developed. The idea was to avoid being cooped up in the gym and get outside, but wow, this is just, well, different. Find the link for "Sweet Jumps" and watch the Treadmill bike jump a ramp!

Now You Can Eat the Menu

Apparently I've been asleep in a closet somewhere because everyone's been talking about the edible menu and I'm only just finding out! Chef Homaru Cantu, chef/nerd-in-disguise at Moto restaurant in Chicago is doing more than thinking out of the box; he's creating the box, as in his "cook at your table" fish plate. Cantu created an ink jet printer that uses organic, edible inks.

Now I've tried rice paper candy long ago and wasn't thrilled (course I was about 12-years old). I'm not sure I'd like a piece of melt-in-your-mouth paper that tasted like Kobe beef, but those paying $195 a plate for the 18-course taster menu must think it's just "crazy man!" What I'd love to see is Cantu's "cheese snow," made by spraying mozzarella dairy stock into liquid nitrogen, garnished with parsley oil.

Never satisfied Cantu goes on to create deep fried cotton candy and, ewww, hot dog ice cream. Sounds yucky, but hey, if a top chef says it's good, I'd trust him, at least once.

Forget Toys, Now Recalling Chocolate

Kraft gets slammed with a chocolate recall just in time for the 2007 holiday season. Kraft's Premium White Chocolate the 6 oz sized box, apparently they've found salmonella. Yes, it lurks everywhere.

Keeping track of all these recalls isn't easy, so get their email or RSS reports. It's getting so we've got to wonder if anything is safe to eat any more.

Shape Back Issues Online

Diet and weight loss resource found in Find Articles: Shape magazine's back issues from Dec 2001 to the present.

I like reading old magazines to see how our thinking and trends about weight loss change from time-to-time. Usually it's the same thing you've always heard, calories in, calories out, but adding healthy nutrition and purposeful movement (exercise) seems to never go out of style. What do you think?

Now Food You Don't Eat Can Hurt the Planet

Just when we thought it was safe to toss our moldy leftovers, out comes a study saying food waste (and excessive shopping) contributes to environmental decline. Found at Newsdaily.com British Environment Minister Joan Ruddock suggests Brits do their part and stop wasting food! Leftovers are yummy, says Roddock. (Okay, I made that up).

You know some people do not like leftovers! They insist on perfectly new food at every sitting. Who are these people? Personally I love nothing better than finding ready-to-eat food waiting when the hungries strike. I enjoyed the rest of the steak I didn't eat last night today for lunch and was that a treat!

Love Food Hate Waste

The "Love Food Hate Waste" program aims to help reduce the tossing out of perfectly good food with ideas for

Do you cook too much
Meal making and food facts
Top chefs take on leftovers
Keep it fresh and eat at its best
Why cutting food waste matters

Use the Add Your Voice link and tell everyone what you think.

Reduce Your Waistline While You Reduce Food Waste

It makes sense that if you plan ahead, stop all those quickie trips for fast food and get back to some real home cooking (not take-out eaten at home, but food actually prepared at home) you'll lose weight in the process. It's time we all stopped wasting so much food, not to mention money, and ate more responsibly.
