Container Food List Guide CONTAINER FOOD LIST GUIDE If you’re reading this, it’s safe to assume that you’ve done your calorie calculations and found your individual 80 Day Obsession Eating Plan in the Program Materials list, so you know how much food to eat—and when to eat it. These Portion-Control Container Food Lists help you determine which foods to eat for your best results. Here are a few tips to help you: ● Once you figure out how many of each portion-control container to eat each day, fill those containers with foods from the corresponding lists. For example, if your plan calls for 6 greens, fill your Green Container (Vegetables) 6 times a day. ● The foods on each list are arranged by nutritional value—the higher up on the list, the more nutritional benefit! ● Many of the foods are listed with specific measurements/amounts—10 asparagus spears, for example. If there’s no amount, just fill the containers to the point that you can still fit the lid on it. ● There are over 100 “containerized” recipes on the Fixate® cooking show on Beachbody® On Demand. And Autumn provides the container equivalents for each one so it’s easy to integrate into your Eating Plan!

The firBt experiment was carried out at a commercial farm, with birds housed in pens, each containing 10-12 pairs. Two pelleted feeds of different protein concentrations (low protein (LP) with l&V. CP and 2937 kcal ME/kg, and high protein (HP) with 22% CP and 2783 kcal ME/kg) were fed, with and without whole yellov corn, cafeteria-style. A low protein intake was observed with LP + corn, which adversely affected squab growth and livability, without affecting egg production traits or adult body weight.

  • The Sexual Politics of Meat by Carol J. Adams
    THE SEXUAL POLITICS OF MEAT A FEMINISTVEGETARIAN CRITICAL THEORY Praise for The Sexual Politics of Meat and Carol J. Adams “A clearheaded scholar joins the ideas of two movements—vegetari- anism and feminism—and turns them into a single coherent and moral theory. Her argument is rational and persuasive. New ground—whole acres of it—is broken by Adams.” —Colman McCarthy, Washington Post Book World “Th e Sexual Politics of Meat examines the historical, gender, race, and class implications of meat culture, and makes the links between the prac tice of butchering/eating animals and the maintenance of male domi nance. Read this powerful new book and you may well become a vegetarian.” —Ms. “Adams’s work will almost surely become a ‘bible’ for feminist and pro gressive animal rights activists. Depiction of animal exploita- tion as one manifestation of a brutal patriarchal culture has been explored in two [of her] books, Th e Sexual Politics of Meat and Neither Man nor Beast: Feminism and the Defense of Animals. Adams argues that factory farming is part of a whole culture of oppression and insti- tutionalized violence. Th e treatment of animals as objects is parallel to and associated with patriarchal society’s objectifi cation of women, blacks, and other minorities in order to routinely exploit them. Adams excels in constructing unexpected juxtapositions by using the language of one kind of relationship to illuminate another. Employing poetic rather than rhetorical techniques, Adams makes powerful connec- tions that encourage readers to draw their own conclusions.” —Choice “A dynamic contribution toward creating a feminist/animal rights theory.” —Animals’ Agenda “A cohesive, passionate case linking meat-eating to the oppression of animals and women .

  • Polynesian Canoe Plants, Including Breadfruit, Taro, and Coconut: the Ultimate in Sustainability Planning Posted on June 27, 2019 by Leslie Lang
    HOME HOURS & DIRECTIONS GARDEN SLIDESHOW GARDEN NEWS & BLOG Polynesian Canoe Plants, Including Breadfruit, Taro, and Coconut: the Ultimate in Sustainability Planning Posted on June 27, 2019 by Leslie Lang Do you know about “canoe plants?” These are the plants—such as kalo (taro), ‘ulu (breadfruit), and niu (coconut), among others—that Polynesians brought in their carefully-stocked voyaging canoes perhaps 1,600 years ago when they first settled in Hawai‘i. Canoe plants are one more piece of the evidence showing us that the people who colonized Hawai‘i were intelligent voyagers who came in planned expeditions, not islanders who drifted here unintentionally. Not only did they successfully navigate the oceans like highways, but before they left home to explore and settle new lands, they pr​​epared themselves well. After all, they had to sustain themselves both during their long journeys and also upon arrival in a new island group, where they didn’t know what resources they would find. They maximized their limited space by packing seeds, roots, shoots, and cuttings of their most critical plants, the ones they relied on the most for food, medicine, and for making containers, fabric, cordage, and more. We can identify about 24 plants that arrived in Hawai‘i as canoe plants. You can see samples of some of them at Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden. The Most Significant Polynesian Canoe Plants: ‘Ulu ‘Ulu (Artocarpus altilis, Artocarpus incisus or Artocarpus communis) belongs to the Moracceae (fig or mulberry) family. Known in English as breadfruit, the ‘ulu tree produces a “fruit” that is actually a vegetable with a high carbohydrate content.

  • Exploring Turkey's Culinary Heritage
    EXPLORING TURKEY’S CULINARY HERITAGE A LOOK THROUGH THE HISTORY, TRADITIONS AND INGREDIENTS HISTORICAL DEVELOPMENT OF TURKISH CUISINE Turkish cuisine is considered in the top five cuisines in the world. The vast geography that the Turks have lived in the past, the various climates, the soil and living conditions have enabled Turks to develop a very rich culinary culture. TURKS IN CENTRAL ASIA Before 11th Century The diet of nomadic Turks consisted mainly on animal products sustained in their immediate environment. They also led an agrarian way of life, depended on agricultural products as well as the animals they bred, and their products. In Central Asia, there were no definite borders at the time, therefore there was a lot of interaction between different kinds of communities. Turks that lived in Central Asia, encountered different culinary traditions and ingredients that they assimilated into their own cuisine.

  • Breadfruit, Breadnut, and Jackfruit: How Are They Related? by Fred Prescod
    Comparing Breadfruit, Breadnut, and Jackfruit: How are they Related? by Fred Prescod In the first article we traced the arrival of the breadfruit plant into the New World. Now we compare breadfruit with its close relatives, breadnut and jackfruit, both also found in St. Vincent and the Grenadines. These three plants all belong to the botanical genus known as Artocarpus. The name Artocarpus is applied to about 60 different trees, all members of the fig or mulberry family (Moraceae), a botanical division which at one time included Cannabis. Trees of this genus are native to Southeast Asia and the Pacific region. The generic name (Artocarpus) is derived from the Greek words ‘artos’ (meaning bread) and ‘karpos’ (meaning fruit). The name is thought to have been established by Johann Reinhold Forster and J. Georg Adam Forster, botanists aboard the HMS Resolution on James Cook’s second voyage. In J.W. Pursglove’s publication on tropical crops, he reports that Joseph Banks, James Cook and other early travelers brought back descriptions of the breadfruit plant using phrases such as ‘bread itself is gathered as a fruit’. Breadfruit tree – Calliaqua, St. Vincent Breadfruit tree at Calliaqua, St. Vincent. [Photo by Jim Lounsberry] Unfortunately some confusion often arises from the use of common names, where a single common name may be applied to different plants in different areas. Nevertheless breadfruit itself is recognized as a seedless form of the plant known botanically as Artocarpus altilis (also Artocarpus communis), while breadnut (often also listed as Artocarpus altilis) was originally thought to be simply a race or form of the same plant with fruits containing seeds.

  • SMALL-SCALE POULTRY PROCESSING Table 1
    SSMALLMALL-S-SCCALEALE PPOULOULTRTRYY PPROCESSINGROCESSING By Anne Fanatico NCAT Agriculture Specialist May 2003 Introduction A growing number of small producers are rais- ing poultry outdoors on pasture, processing the birds on-farm, and selling the meat directly to customers at the farm or at a farmers’ market. Many states allow up to 1,000 birds to be processed on a farm each year and sold directly to consumers with no inspection. Some of these small producers are go- ing further—building government-licensed process- ing plants to supply regional or niche markets. Spe- Photo by Paul Helbert cialty “religious kill” is often done in small plants. “Kosher” is the term for Jewish slaughter and “halaal” for Muslim slaughter. Access to processing is a critical issue for small producers. Consolidation in the meat process- ing industry has left very few small plants that will do custom poultry processing. (Large plants generally don’t process for small producers; they can’t keep track of a small batch of birds and can’t make money on small- volume orders.) This publication covers small-scale processing, both on- farm and in small plants. Relevant information on large-scale processing is also included for comparison, to provide con- text, and because small processors need to have some under- standing of how large-scale processing works.

  • Good Things Happen When You Plant Trees
    Plant a Tree … … and Good Things Happen! A guideline for younger children By Mary McLaughlin & Judy Osgood Illustrations by Edward Brooks Plant a tree and good things happen . 1. To the air we breathe 2. To the food we eat 3. To the birds that fly 4. To the animals that live on the ground 5. To the rivers, the ponds and the sea 6. To the jobs we can do 7. To the joy we have in play Teaching guide on trees. Created by Mary McLaughlin & Judy Osgood. Plant a tree and good things happen . to the air we breathe How do trees help us breathe? Key Concepts: Trees are the lungs of the earth. People need to breathe in air with oxygen to live. People breathe in oxygen (O2) and breath out carbon dioxide (CO2). Trees take in carbon dioxide and turn it into oxygen. Questions and Activities: *Put your hand on your chest. Breathe in and out. Do you feel the air coming in and going out? Where does the air come into the body and where does it exit? What organ of the body holds the air? What do we mean by bad or dirty air? *If you breathed in bad air what would happen to you? What causes bad air? What helps the air to improve? What are the other gases that make up the air that we breath? 1 Plant a tree and good things happen . to the food we eat Name some trees that give you food to eat: Brainstorm: things we eat that grow on trees: Ackee Limes Allspice Mango Almonds Maple syrup Apples Moringa Bananas Naseberry Bay leaves Olives Beechnuts Oranges Brazil nuts Pawpaw Breadfruit Peaches Cashews Persimmon Cherries Pigeon pea Chestnuts Pine nuts Cinnamon Pistachios Cloves Plums Cocoa Pomegranate Coconuts Soursop Questions and Activities Dates Starfruit *How many of these have you eaten?
