So, too, in Bali, where the rich cultural legacy of the Hindu Majapahit culture drew bohemian Western visitors in the 1930s who were mystified as to why most Balinese turned their backs on the lovely beaches, even forsaking fish from their normal diets. (The answer was, in part, because the coasts are considered the domain of demons...
...restaurant, Á naestum grösum, has changed itself into a soup kitchen offering downtrodden Icelanders a free bowl of barley-vegetable soup and a slice of bread, while just down the street a few local bars have begun selling "recession beer" at $2.60 a glass compared with the normal price of $6 or so.

Unless the picky eating is getting in the way of the child’s normal growth, the child’s palate should be allowed to develop normally by exposing him to flavors but not forcing them upon him. Tastebuds “maturing” may actually be tastebuds dulling.So is being a supertaster a curse or a blessing? I often wish that...
