  • November 2020
    November 2020 SCOREwww.hendersonvillecc.com PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE After experiencing spectacular weather in September and October, we now move into November and the beginning of the Holiday Season! Each of us will soon be planning how to celebrate our holidays in this year of a pandemic. Many of us are deciding whether we will have gatherings or parties with family and friends. After much consideration, we have decided that the Club will not host non-member banquets and parties this holiday season. In recent months we have heard how many of you feel the Club is your only safe option for dining out. With that in mind, we feel this is not the time to add crowds of non-members to our clubhouses. Please remember that you are welcome to bring guests to lunch and dinner, but we won’t be hosting large non-member groups. Kiki Matthews This is also the time of year when we provide Members with an opportunity to contribute to the Employee Christmas Fund. An envelope will be included in your November and December statement for you to indicate your voluntary participation. These contributions are distributed to employees the week before Christmas and often make Christmas not only possible, but special for the families of our loyal employees. Home for the Holidays Thanksgiving Meal Meals feed a party of 2 | $45++ All orders must be placed by Thursday, November 19 Order Pick-Up | Thursday, November 26 | 10:30am-2:00pm With such limited seating capacity, we’ve decided the best way to serve the most Members for Thanksgiving will be to only offer take home meals.

  • Donna Lee Brien Writing About Food: Significance, Opportunities And
    Donna Lee Brien Writing about Food: Significance, opportunities and professional identities Abstract: Food writing, including for cookbooks and in travel and food memoirs, makes up a significant, and increasing, proportion of the books written, published, sold and read each year in Australia and other parts of the English-speaking world. Food writing also comprises a similarly significant, and growing, proportion of the magazine, newspaper and journal articles, Internet weblogs and other non-fiction texts written, published, sold and read in English. Furthermore, food writers currently are producing much of the concept design, content and spin-off product that is driving the expansion of the already popular and profitable food-related television programming sector. Despite this high visibility in the marketplace, and while food and other culinary-related scholarship are growing in reputation and respectability in the academy, this considerable part of the contemporary writing and publishing industry has, to date, attracted little serious study. Moreover, internationally, the emergent subject area of food writing is more often located either in Food History and Gastronomy programs or as a component of practical culinary skills courses than in Writing or Publishing programs. This paper will, therefore, investigate the potential of food writing as a viable component of Writing courses. This will include a preliminary investigation of the field and current trends in food writing and publishing, as well as the various academic, vocational and professional opportunities and pathways such study opens up for both the students and teachers of such courses. Keywords: Food Writing – Professional Food Writers – Creative and Professional Writing Courses – Teaching Creative and Professional Writing Biographical note Associate Professor Donna Lee Brien is Head of the School of Arts and Creative Enterprise at Central Queensland University, and President of the AAWP.

  • A Revealing Carbon Assessment of Brew Dr. Kombucha's Supply Chain
    TRIPLEWIN ADVISORY CASE STUDY | BREW DR. KOMBUCHA A Revealing Carbon Assessment of Brew Dr. Kombucha’s Supply Chain THE CLIENT TripleWin Advisory approached Brew Dr. Kombucha (BDK) about conducting a Scope 3 carbon inventory across its value chain. The company, anticipating their B Lab re-certifi cation process in the Fall of 2020 and with a mind on fulfi lling its business com- mitment to NetZero2030, eagerly said “Yes” to working together. THE CONTEXT TripleWin’s main point of contact was Danny Metcalf, Director of Sustainability and former Head of Business Operations. The company had begun calculating its Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions the year prior and off setting those totals by purchasing carbon off sets and renewable energy certifi cates (RECs) through Bonneville Environmental Foundation. Danny recognized that a Scope 3 or full value chain analysis of BDK’s GHG emissions was an opportunity to better understand the company’s total environmental impact and to highlight activities and processes in the supply chain that could be optimized, changed or eliminated altogether. Brew Dr. Kombucha (BDK) is an 11-year old, Portland, Oregon-based consumer products goods company that serves the market through three distinct product off erings: ✓ Brew Dr. Tea Houses: zen retail spaces where customers can select hot and cold to-order tea drinks and light snacks. ✓ Brew Dr. Kombucha: bottled fermented tea sold in glass bottles and aluminum cans throughout the U.S., Canada and parts of Mexico. ✓ Townshend Distillery: a spirits distillery. BDK operates in a high-growth sector of the Food & Beverage industry, the Kombucha market, sized at 1.35 billion (US$) and is expected to grow to 8.15 billion by 2026.

  • Tangy Temptation: Mcdonald's and Marketing to a Foodie World
    Tangy Temptation: McDonald’s and Marketing to a Foodie World Thomas R. Werner Whether boasting over the latest kill while it sizzled over a pre-historical fire or chatting about an enterprising chef in a contemporary upscale restaurant, humans have always bonded over food. “From primitive times,” Mark Meister writes, food “has been intimately involved in creating identification and consubstantiation” (2001, p. 175). Food gave people a pursuit that redefined the entire human experi- ence. Mary Douglas states that the meal is what brought humans “from hunter and gatherer to market-conscious consumer” (in Meister, 2001, p. 170). In our market- conscious age, the collection and discussion of food is a serious hobby, manifested in user-created reviews and independent food blogs. The term “foodie,” mockingly coined in Ann Barry and Paul Levy’s 1984 book The Official Foodie Handbook, once represented a snobby subset of Americans. However, with a proliferation of food media, food-pursuit is more and more accessible to those without a lot of dispos- able income, making the “foodie” a subset that grows daily. With a little bit of in- formation, the foodies feels adequately fit for publishing their own opinions about the quality of food in restaurants or at a friend’s house (Fattorini, 1994). Originally, the “foodie” acquired this casual-yet-obsessive learning through food publications and programming, but with more and more food media available to a mainstream audience, anybody can be a foodie now. Beyond using food as a delineator of socioeconomic status, the foodie subset has raised restaurants to be places of recreation in addition to being places of nour- ishment.

Updated March 9, 2020. Issue (brief description): Assessment of kombucha tea recipe and food safety plan Disclaimer: The information provided in this document is based on the judgement of BCCDC’s Environmental Health Services Food Safety Specialists and represents our knowledge at the time of the request. It has not been peer-reviewed and is not comprehensive. Summary of search information: 1. Internet sources: general search for “kombucha” 2. OVID and PubMed search “kombucha” AND “illness” 3. Personal communication with federal and provincial agencies Background information: Kombucha Tea (KT, sometimes called Manchurian tea or Kargasok tea) is a slightly sweet, mildy acidic tea beverage consumed worldwide, which has seen significant sales growth in North American markets from recent years.1 KT is prepared by fermenting sweetened black or green tea preparations with a symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY), often referred to as the “mushroom” (misnamed because of its appearance) or as a “mother” (for its ability to reproduce). The floating mat is a biofilm layer made up of bacteria and cellulose that is more correctly referred to as a pellicle. The culture comes in different varieties, but is generally made up of a variable amount of Gluconacetobacter, Lactobacillus, and Acetobacter (genera of acetic acid bacteria)
