Should you get "off the hook?" The ethics of eating fish
Should you get "off the hook?" The ethics of eating fish PRI - 46 views - 3 days ago

Food writer Mark Bittman's first book, "Fish: The Complete Guide to Buying and Cooking," explored the glory of piscine cuisine. But when offered the opportunity to revise the book, he declined. Overnight shipping of loads of fish cargo, farm-raising and over-fishing have turned buying and eating fish into an ethical and ecological quagmire. Mark Bittman joins The Takeaway (http://www.thetakeaway.org/) to explain his reasons for being more selective about which fish end up on his plate.

If the food you served on your kitchen table were to star in a film, the cast would probably not be all that surprising. * Steak: lean, dark and juicy- obviously the romantic lead. * Chicken: any way you dress it- the comic relief * And tofu: the shape-shifting villain willing to take on multiple forms

But nowhere in the script is there a role for buttermilk. Unless that film is made by Joe York, starring Tennessee farmer Earl Cruze. Cruze and his buttermilk are the stars of York's documentary "Buttermilk: It Can Help," screening at this year's NYC Food Film Festival.

Takeaway producer Jesse Baker went to the opening night of the festival to gauge New Yorkers' response to Cruze and his buttermilk.

You can read Zimmer's New York Times article on fireflies in the Science Times article, "Blink Twice if You Like Me."
