This is what Ariel Krolick, owner of Ariel’s Honey Infusions, has been telling customers, eager to spread the word about the effect bees have on our food sources.

When I go to brunch, I always sway between the same few dishes. These dishes are staples — no, cornerstones — of not only my meal, but also my life.

While my brunch adventures have been few and, quite honestly, nonexistent compared to a friend who goes every weekend like it’s her religion, here are a few of my favorite spots.

Just last week, a school lunch worker in Pennsylvania quit after an instituted “lunch shaming” policy, which calls for publicly replacing a chosen lunch with a lunch of lesser quality if a student’s account is in debt. Instead of a chosen hot lunch, the student receives a “sandwich, a fruit/vegetable serving and milk,” according to a Guardian article.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”118004″ img_size=”280×280″ onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https://dailyfreepress.com/?p=118971″][vc_custom_heading text=”STROINSKI: Few bad factory farms ruin whole bunch, and small farmers pay” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1474519416375{margin-top: 0px !important;}” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fdailyfreepress.com%2F%3Fp%3D118971||target:%20_blank”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1474519436234{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”]If there’s one thing everyone loves doing, it’s eating. A meal is a social experience, a chance to come together and exchange stories after a day of living separate lives. And the food we put on the table is just as important as the people who congregate around it; American food culture, once a beacon of Wonder Bread and trans-fat, is increasingly becoming more balanced, organic and safe.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”117904″ img_size=”280×280″ onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” link=”https://dailyfreepress.com/?p=118968″][vc_custom_heading text=”JOHNSTON: What food says about the 2016 political environment” font_container=”tag:h3|text_align:left” use_theme_fonts=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1474519521520{margin-top: 0px !important;}” link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fdailyfreepress.com%2F%3Fp%3D118968||target:%20_blank”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1474519542052{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”]It’s not often that food consumption becomes a major topic of a tightly fought political race, but when you’re really stuck between two ridiculous candidates, it might be helpful to acknowledge their take on diets.

One can only assume that Hillary Clinton is no novice when it comes to fine dining. She has lived the glory life since she went by Hillary Rodham, dining lavishly on taxpayers’ money as a first lady, senator and secretary of state.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator color=”chino”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
