...Avoiding ethiopian coffee, Italian olive oil and Indian mangoes is a recipe for both a bland and boring diet and harmful, protectionist trade policies. There is no reason we can't eat fresh, local carrots that are seasoned with saffron from across the world. In doing so we blend cultures the way only good eating can. Susan R. Holmberg, New York City...

...planning to open a high-end burger chain, Bobby's Burger Palace--with a menu featuring variations from different parts of the U.S.--starting in Smithtown, N.Y., and Monmouth County, N.J. "Everybody across the country now understands that at any price point you should be able to eat well, whether it's a burger or a prix fixe meal at Thomas Keller," says Flay. "People are finally willing to pay more for better food, whether it's fast food or five-star food." Keller's upcoming Burgers and Half Bottles in Napa Valley, which pairs his house wines with simple...
