Raiding the Internet fridge for your intellectual delectation ...

- House Agriculture Committee Chairman, Rep. Collin Peterson (D-MN-07), doesn't believe global warming will hurt agriculture.

- Why the biotech question isn't like climate change.

- How the food industry benefits from the communication gap between farmers and consumer advocates.

- Lawsuit filed in the E. coli cookie dough outbreak.

- Interesting commentary on sustainable fish consumption (and sorry, no, no one's ever going to get me to eat mackerel again) and the campaign to save bluefin tuna.

- And now, a few words from the president of the National Black Farmers Association.
