Sorry for the slow day, gang.

I have been battling insomnia lately. This is new. I'm blaming my cats. They've gone mad. 

I was also on deadline today.

Now, as the sun is setting, I present you with some of the juicier items I'm seeing in my Google Reader:

This article about a new Lancet study on the effect of diet on ADHD. There are other links to follow once you get to the article, including to an interview you may have heard on NPR. (Civil Eats)

A Chicago Tribune business story on the changes the packaged-food companies are making to their products. Are they really healthier? Marion Nestle weighs in on Food Politics: "And as I keep saying, just because a processed food is a little bit less bad than it used to be, doesn’t necessarily make it a good choice."

Too much science for you? How about Tempura-fried pizza at Sumo Grub in Berkeley. (Serious Eats Slice)

Meet Food Republic -- Eating, drinking, and living the way a man should. It has a recipe for a hamburger.
