The ruling is a long-overdue victory—not just for ducks and geese subjected to force-feeding, but for the democratic process itself.

"Forgotten cuts" are officially back on the menu! We're seeing a shift as food lovers move beyond the basics to experiment with nose-to-tail cooking.

If you throw away a plastic item today, it'll very likely still be around for decades to come. In fact, some research suggests that certain plastic items could take up to 500 years to decompose. To put that in context, that means that if, say, Henry VIII threw away a plastic coffee pod in Tudor England, it would only just be finished degrading now. He didn't, of course; plastic wasn't used regularly until the 20th century. But you get the point.

Rather than tossing or recycling those empty take-out containers, why not give them another purpose and use them for pantry storage? As she revealed on her blog, Stewart uses her leftover deli containers to store all sorts of dry goods in her pantry, like salt, pepper, and other spices, which keeps her pantry in her farm in upstate New York tidy and organized.

Finely ground coffee can add depth and a subtle roasted bitterness that enhances caramelization.

After all, it's comfort food with a heavy emphasis on the comfort - all carbs and sauce and warm, full feelings.

It's likely that you've encountered recycled glass countertops without realizing it. They're far from the hippie-style broken-glass mosaic art of yesteryear, instead presenting as sleek, highly polished, professional slabs with intriguing bits of confetti-style color trapped inside. That's the recovered glass bits set into a binding material such as resin, cement, or concrete, and then smoothly polished so that the composite surface feels like stone.

Food trends are changing and evolving constantly, with yesterday's textures, flavors, and ingredients moving aside or inspiring the ones we expect to see in 2026. We expect the upcoming year to be influenced by health trends, as well as politics, and the need for comfort in our food offerings. People's ever-expanding palates and health needs are also colliding with their budgets, but that doesn't mean they plan to sacrifice their food experiences.

I don't want to eat bagged salad for lunch just because it's easy. In my household, when I don't have last night's dinner leftovers to turn to, my go-to lunch has always been a rice bowl. I usually fry up some tofu and/or chickpeas and toss those with greens and a quick little sauce. It takes about 10 minutes and is wildly satisfying.

That tapered top is perfect for decorating cakes, and the bottle is a firmer, easier vessel to squeeze and manipulate mess-free than a pastry bag. We love repurposing various kitchen items - it keeps waste out of landfills and also helps us avoid unnecessary spending. This hack in particular is a win-win: Enjoy your favorite condiments, then sustainably reuse their bottles, and allow those bottles to help you harness your inner pastry chef and decorate cakes like a pro.

Today's recipe began life as a way to use up garlic skins and herby leftovers, all of which contain a surprising amount of flavour, but it has evolved over time. Infused oil has countless uses drizzle it over carpaccio, pasta or salad, use it to marinate meat, fish and vegetables, or simply as a dip for chunks of sourdough and some of my favourites include lemon rind, garlic skin and rosemary;
