Energy Drinks Promise Edge, but Experts Say Proof Is Scant (Published 2013)
Energy drinks are the fastest-growing part of the beverage industry, with sales in the United States reaching more than $10 billion in 2012 — more than Americans spent on iced tea or sports beverages like Gatorade. Their rising popularity represents a generational shift in what people drink, and reflects a successful campaign to convince consumers, particularly teenagers, that the drinks provide a

Vote for the Dinner Party (Published 2012)
One of the more interesting things we will learn on Nov. 6 is whether or not there is a “food movement” in America worthy of the name — that is, an organized force in our politics capable of demanding change in the food system. People like me throw the term around loosely, partly because we sense the gathering of such a force, and partly (to be honest) to help wish it into being by sheer dint of r

炭酸飲料規制「余計なお世話」＝市民の反対６割−ＮＹタイムズ調査 炭酸飲料規制「余計なお世話」＝市民の反対６割−ＮＹタイムズ調査 【ニューヨーク時事】特大ソーダの禁止は「余計なお世話」。米紙ニューヨーク・タイムズ（電子版）は２２日、ブルームバーグ・ニューヨーク市長が肥満対策の一環として提案した炭酸飲料の販売規制に関する同紙の世論調査で、市民の６割が反対していることが分かったと報じた。 市長の提案は、映画館などで１リットルも入るような特大サイズの炭酸飲料の販売を禁止する内容。 同紙によれば、この提案に反対するとの回答は６０％に上った一方、「良いアイデア」と支持する回答は３６％にとどまった。反対は、規制は「行き過ぎ」であり、消費者の選択の自由を重んじるべきだというのが理由。賛成の理由では、炭酸飲料には糖分が多く、市で肥満や糖尿病がまん延していることが挙げられた。（2012/08/23-09:
