3. Season the steaks with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Grill to desired doneness, then remove from the grill and glaze with Cabernet Sauce.

4. With a ring mold, form a disk of tomato tartare in the center of each plate.

5. Season the sliced tomatoes with sea salt, cracked pepper, white truffle oil, lemon juice and the remaining chives.

6. Place a steak on top of the tartare, and garnish with shoestring potatoes.

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.
