FDA traces romaine E. coli outbreak to California farm; some lettuce safe to eat

WASHINGTON (UPI) -- The U.S. Food and Drug Administration said Thursday it was able to trace an E. coli outbreak to a California farm.

These hotel fees are making your stay more expensive

Last week I wrote about some of the new and different ways airlines are collecting fees, rendering many base fare comparisons moot. Well, as it turns out, a similar phenomenon has also been affecting a different part of the travel sector for years. I speak, of course, of the hotel industry.

Living in an apartment is fine, but you can never actually improve its structural appearance or add anything at all. A recent survey found that nearly two-thirds of consumers are planning on renovating their homes. Additionally, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, 30% of remodeling activity was major home additions, 40% was for minor alterations, and 30% for general repairs […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: The milk man

Many of us grew up during the 1960s. Some, like me, never grew up. But we've continued to age without expiring. Let's see…where was I? Oh, yes. If you grew up back then, you probably remember a neighborhood visitor called the "milk man." He worked for a local dairy, and came by in a truck two or three mornings a week delivering fresh products. Now, back in those days most milk and cream came in thick glass bottles. You would […]

Cargill and others providing extra support for The Great American Milk Drive

How much dairy do you drink or eat every day? Do you take it for granted? Consider that a lot of milk produced on farms doesn't hit supermarket shelves as fresh milk. In fact, a whopping 9% of milk collected on American dairy farms goes solely toward producing ice cream. A very minuscule percentage of fresh milk sold after the farm ends up on food bank shelves, despite it being one of the most requested items. Food banks often serve […]
