Ingredients

1/2 cup blue cornmeal
1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 lb. chilled butter
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1 egg
1/2 milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease and flour a baking sheet.

Stir the dry ingredients in a bowl, then cut the butter into the dry mixture with a pastry blender (or suitable substitute) to form a coarse meal.

Beat the egg with the milk, sugar, and vanilla. When smooth, stir into the other mixture until the dough holds together. Knead briefly on a floured surface; pat into an 8" circle; place on baking sheet.

Using a pizza cutter or serrated knife, score circle into 8 wedges. Bake for 15 or 20 minutes (depending on high or low altitude) or until nicely brown. Serve with honey, fruits, jams, or, as the British say, with clotted cream. Best straight from the oven but still great the next day

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.
