Hot Dogs - The More You Know

With so many using their grills today, perhaps a little hot dog history.  Dachshunds, Dog Wagons and Other Important Elements of Hot Dog History Sausage is one of the oldest forms of processed food, having been mentioned in Homer's Odyssey as far back as the 9th Century B.C. Frankfurt-am-Main, Germany, is traditionally credited with originating the frankfurter. However, this claim is disputed by those who assert that the popular sausage - known as a "dachshund" or "little-dog" sausage - was created in the late 1600's by Johann Georghehner, a butcher, living in Coburg, Germany. According to this report, Georghehner later traveled to Frankfurt to promote his new product. In 1987, the city of Frankfurt celebrated the 500th birthday of the hot dog in that city.

Missouri May Be First State To Get Serious About The Definition Of Meat

The USDA is expecting Americans to eat record amounts of meat this year. Grant Gerlock/Harvest Public Media Missouri is at the vanguard of defining what meat is, thanks to  legislation  awaiting the governor's signature. It's an essential, perhaps even existential, question sparked by the growth of plant-based proteins, meat substitutes and lab-grown products. And it's a topic that, while first passed at the state level on May 17, is also being  considered  at the federal level. Under the bill, which had overwhelming bipartisan support, only products that come from once-living, breathing animals can be marketed as meat. Specifically, meat would be defined as something "derived from harvested production livestock or poultry." THE SALT The Rise Of Mock Meat: How Its Story Reflects America's Ever-Changing Values Spokesman Mike Deering of the Missouri Cattlemen's Association said it's key to protecting livestock producers'

One of the world's most important food crops may be declining in quality due to greenhouse gas emissions.

Its stores of protein, iron, zinc and some important B vitamins all decline.

Green Grilling - Reduce Your Carbon Footprint

While the  environmental   impact  of grilling is negligible compared with most of the other  things we do in our day it is important that we take every aspect of our lives into consideration when it comes to combating  air   pollution  and our carbon footprint. By making a few changes to the way we grill and the kinds of products we buy we can make grilling green. Try out these suggestions to make your outdoor cooking more environmentally friendly. Avoid petroleum based lighter fluids and self-lighting charcoal. These release petrochemicals into the atmosphere. Instead use a charcoal chimney, an electric charcoal starter, or natural lighter fluids to get your fire going (see Charcoal Starters). Choose a superior charcoal. Natural charcoals and lump charcoal made from furniture scraps and waste wood without additives and binders make a cleaner fire that not only reduces your pollution output but improve your grilling experience. Switch to gas. Gas grills are much more en
