    Loves Chinese Delivery/Hates Melted Styrofoam [moved from General Chowhounding Topics]

    want to be less dependent on those wacky Arabs and their addictive petroleum based products, but also, scientific studies have shown that the more plastics of any sort we use the higher the levels of what are called "pseudo-...

    Shepards pie

    Sadly, too many to support so they must be slaughtered. Same with beef (bob veal) and also horses to get that estrogen medicine made from pregnant mare’s urine.

    Worcestershire Sauce - Again

    Yep! When we found out about my liver, we threw away everything plastic in our house (the issue is that synthetic estrogens leech into the food – the jury is still out but I’m not taking any risks). I love my new...

    Have you, yourself, ever made kim chi? I need help!!!!

    is necessary or even possibly impeding the process. Traditional methods use ceramic crocks, and I always shy away from foods in plastic—I’m one of those who believe plastics can leach estrogen mimicking compounds into...

    Do you drink bottled water (even if the tap water is safe)?

    Giada Should Apologize

    I think she is gone for good. I’m thinking she didn’t work because of her flubs or maybe it was too hard working on both coasts. Now Tiki is alone for the final estrogen hour of the Today show.

    Have you ever lost a taste for something?

    Why do adults in Western cultures drink milk?

    but the way they are being touted today makes me think we should “follow the money”. For instance, who paid for the studies showing the connection between estrogen and soy? If chowhounding is about the pleasures of...

    We've done movies; what is your fave food read?

    I couldn’t get through Julie and Julia; too much estrogen for me. However, here are a few of the favs: The Man Who Ate Everything Tender at the Bone The Goodness of Garlic Doing My Life in France right now...

    Why do many people still think going out on Valentine's Day is a good idea?

    , acting up, showing off, feeling self entitled, testosterone and estrogen pumping like crazy. It reminds me of all those weird animal courtship behaviors you see on the Discovery Channel. Rams and mountain goats head butting...
