Crema

Spanish name: Crema

Not really a cheese but a dairy staple in Mexican cuisine. Crema is a heavy cream similar in taste to creme fraiche (which is a good substitute but best to just make your own). Thicker versions of crema are used as additions to sauces and the thinner crema is used as a topping for tostadas, tacos and enchiladas.

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?
