NPR: The Salt

Many people are often overwhelmed by learning about food in America. If you get overwhelmed, you might want to add NPR's The Salt to your daily reading habit. They do a good job at mixing in fun food articles with articles that make an argument about our current food system.

For example:

1. They have a funny article about Taco Bell's Waffle Taco

2. They have a "You're kidding me" article about Beaver's bottoms and food flavoring

3. They have a serious article about the healthfulness of low-fat diets

4. They have a cooking article about how to cook eggs

5. And....they have an educational article about the type of bread that is sold in grocery stores

I enjoy this type of food news because it's very approachable, from a reputable source, and covers a wide variety of topics. 

Did you find an article that you particularly enjoyed on The Salt?
