...Annals of Gastronomy MEAT WATCH. As omnivores, we need our pounds of flesh. Yet not since the Beef Jerky Scare of aught-five has the global carving board been more barren. Mad cow, foot-and-mouth and a host of unpalatable soy substitutes have left Type A red-meat lovers forlorn in the produce aisle, desperately trying to assemble a meal from legumes and kasha. Now, resourceful amateur butchers around the globe are proffering alternatives to the traditional Sunday roast.

...David Pryor’s statement about me, “I don’t know if he’s mad at President Clinton, or just mad,” is truly incredible for the director of the Institute of Politics (IOP). It was a cute and printable quote displaying the Senator’s knowledge that “mad” has several meanings, but did he attain his position by assuming that all in opposition to him were either angry or insane (or rabid)? Students at the IOP would do well to learn that often...

With her Green Party credentials, punk hairstyle and penchant for Rollerblading, Kunast, 45, has made quite a splash as Germany's new Minister for Consumer Protection, Food and Agriculture. Amid devastating epidemics of foot-and-mouth and mad-cow disease, Kunast--a lawyer with no prior experience in agriculture--wants to reform European subsidies so they will encourage less crowded, less intensive farming practices that are healthier for animals and consumers...
