For the Love of Food
Welcome to Friday’s For The Love of Food, Summer Tomato’s weekly link roundup.
This week saturated fat gets a new lifeline, a pound isn’t just 3500 calories, and eating avocado pits is insane.
Too busy to read them all? Try this awesome free speed reading app I just discovered to read at 300+ wpm. So neat!
