Black walnuts


Black walnuts are native to the United States and are a terrific source of nutrients. The only problem is accessing those nutrients. Black walnut shells are one of the hardest organic substances known. They are used instead of sand to air blast metal, marble, and glass. The black walnut root stock is very hardy and walnut growers use the root stock and graft on the English walnut for propigation.
Suggested Use:
The extra full flavor of black walnuts adds a rich, meaty taste to cakes, salads, desserts, and savory prepared main dishes. The flavor is compatible with that of most foods and can be varied from their natural state to sweetened, salted, or spiced.

UCSF Researchers say products with added sugar should be controlled just like alcohol or tobacco. They are  advocating that the government take control of the situation because the citizens are unable to do so. The solutions they suggest include doubling the price of sodas via a sugar tax, put age restrictions on purchase of products containing added sugar and legislate which stores are allowed to sell products with added sugar.

Do you favor making sugar a government controlled substance like alcohol and tobacco?
