Zolfini beans

Other names: fagioli zolfino

A dried pale yellow heirloom bean grown in the Tuscany region of Italy.  These little beans can be used for bean soup or any number of dishes with and without meat.  Zolfo is Italian for sulphur the word for which the bean was named.  Use in an recipe that calls for cannellini or other white beans.  Zolfini are are a time and water intensive crop so production is small.  They are very hard to find in the U.S. but can be purchased online directly from Italy (see buy link).

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?
