Ingredients

400 g stewing meat,
¼ kg chicken,
100 g ham,
100 g bacon,
1 blood sausage,
1 chorizo,
200 g chickpeas,
1 large onion,
6 medium-sized potatoes
½ cabbage,
100 g noodles,
1 clove and salt

Instructions

The night before, soak the chickpeas. Put three litres of water in a big pot (with lid) and add in the meat, the chicken, the bacon and the ham. When it starts to boil, you should regularly remove the scum that will be formed on the surface of the water. Add the chickpeas and, then, the onion, the clove and the salt. It should all boil slowly for approximately 3 hours. 20 minutes before removing the casserole from the heat, add the potatoes cut into quarters. The chorizo, blood sausage and cabbage can be cooked in a different casserole so that the broth does not become too greasy. Finally, remove the broth, straining it to get rid of the impurities, to make the noodle soup.

Presentation:
The meat (stewing meat, ham, chorizo and blood sausage), the chickpeas and the vegetables should be served on a separate platter, whereas the noodle soup is served in individual soup plates.

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?
