The "domestic clementines" I referred to in the last post, "Tasting and shopping notes," actually are tangerines from Florida (I just looked at the box). They look like clementines, but I guess all the pits I found should have been the giveaway.
The biggest words on the box are "FLORIDA CITRUS." If you examine the smaller type of the grower's Web address, you'll see the word "tangerines." And this morning, my wife and a house guest said the tangerines they just ate were sweet, not sour, so there are both kinds in the box.
Celebrate food, life and diversity. Join me in the search for the right ingredients: Food without human antibiotics, growth hormones and other harmful additives that have become commonplace in animals raised on factory farms.
Attention food shoppers
We are legions -- legions who are sorely neglected by the media, which prefer glorifying chefs. I love restaurants as much as anyone else, but feel that most are unresponsive to customers who want to know how the food they are eating was grown or raised. I hope my blog will be a valuable resource for helping you find the healthiest food in supermarkets, specialty stores and restaurants in northern New Jersey. In the past five years, I stopped eating meat, poultry, bread and pizza, and now focus on a heart-healthy diet of seafood, vegetables, fruit, whole-wheat pasta and brown rice. I'm happiest when I am eating. -- VICTOR E. SASSON
