Not all food waste looks like rotten fruits or moldy cheese. Here’s a quick peak into the transformative work that goes into upcycling chocolate. Scrap candy bars, bulk chocolate pieces and cocoa powder go from costly food waste to profitable feed ingredient with the help of our animal nutritionists. One of many applications for chocolate by-products is in combination with candies, cake mix and cooked cereals. The concoction becomes an excellent source of energy and a rumen optimizer for high producing dairy cows and beef cattle.

High fructose corn syrup vs Organic Cane Sugar? Consuming too much of either one will make it tough for you to lose weight. Don’t be fooled by getting junk food from Whole Foods. It’s still junk food…delicious junk food, but still needs to be consumed sparingly. Most of us know HFCS is bad for you. It’s cheap and unfortunately in a lot of processed foods. Yes, a good step is to avoid it all together, but don’t think regular sugar is any healthier. The reality is sugar is in so many food items. And read the food labels carefully! #hfcs #highfructosecornsyrup #sustainablenutrition #sustainableweightloss #organicsugar

On Tuesday (July 2), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that it will no longer allow brominated vegetable oil (BVO) in food or beverages due to safety concerns.  But what is BVO, and what is it found in? BVO is vegetable oil modified with bromine, a naturally occurring chemical element that's dark-reddish-brown and liquid at room temperature. Bromine is denser than water and sinks when added to it, and when combined with a vegetable oil, the element makes that oil denser than water. This effect makes BVO useful for emulsifying certain ingredients in water, ensuring that they're evenly distributed throughout the liquid and don't separate from it. #health #oils #cooking #food #foods #vegetables #environmental
