VENI VIDI VICTUALS: Plastic or Paper?
http://venividivictuals.blogspot.com/2009/08/plastic-or-paper.html
Ecological and Minimalist Cookery. Tuesday, 11 August 2009. This is a blog focused on food and its relationship with the environment. Whether or not the merits of a tax on plastic bags should be posted here is dubious. Nonetheless, I found this Leo Hickman piece. Rather good. I don't have much more to add really, except to say that bags are indicative of your consumption patterns. Over-consumption is certainly not sustainable, one only need to open Jared Diamond's Collapse. Stoke Newington Farmers Market.

VENI VIDI VICTUALS: Say Cheese Please
http://venividivictuals.blogspot.com/2009/08/say-cheese-please.html
Ecological and Minimalist Cookery. Tuesday, 11 August 2009. The cheese included a very mature Cheddar, a Brie de Meaux, a raw soft goats cheese, a washed rind cheese akin to a Stinking Bishop, and a deliciously sharp blue cheese. All cheeses were purchased from Neal’s Yard Dairy and were from the UK (except for the brie), and while not all were organic, all are produced humanely using traditional techniques.

VENI VIDI VICTUALS: Meat Free Thursdays (Volume 1)
http://venividivictuals.blogspot.com/2009/08/meat-free-thursdays-volume-1.html
Ecological and Minimalist Cookery. Thursday, 6 August 2009. Meat Free Thursdays (Volume 1). As previously reported on Veni Vidi Victuals, the city of Ghent is encouraging its citizens to give up meat once a week. Thursdays seemed to be the day of choice for this dietary switch, perhaps to avoid the memories of asceticism from a similar Catholic practice on Fridays (though fish was permitted). If anyone doubts the impact giving up meat a few times a week has on the environment, check out this piece. 4 Mea...

VENI VIDI VICTUALS: Food for Thought - A Monday Opener
http://venividivictuals.blogspot.com/2009/08/food-for-thought-monday-opener.html
Ecological and Minimalist Cookery. Monday, 10 August 2009. Food for Thought - A Monday Opener. I intended to post my wine and cheese review from last Monday's marathon tasting, but alas I cannot seem to find the exact names of each cheese. Nonetheless, it will go up shortly, names or no names. In the meantime, it is well worth reading this piece on the current tomato blight. In the New York Times. Social sustainability at work? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

http://venividivictuals.blogspot.com/2009/08/meat-free-thursdays-part-deux.html
Ecological and Minimalist Cookery. Thursday, 13 August 2009. Meat Free Thursdays, Part Deux. When promising a regular post on a particular theme, you suddenly realise the weight of such an obligation. Nevertheless, helping us all to reduce our environmental impact while enjoying delicious food is a worthy cause. Today’s meat free recipe features lentils in a British/French manner. Puy Lentil Base for 1:. 1 can/carton of Puy lentils (green lentils suffice as a substitute). 1 stick of celery, finely chopped.
