Kelly Sonora from the Nursing School Search Blog contacted me this morning and told me about her latest post which features a list of 100 Food Blogs to Inspire Your Healthy Eating.
THSB was honored to be among those listed. Thank you very much, Kelly.
Definitely check it out - it’s a great resource if you are interested in healthy food and snacking.

A health food market near where I live sells a large variety of dried fruits and nuts that come in clear, cylindrical plastic containers. These make easy, packable snacks for the work day.
Sometimes I get a little creative and crazy and I invent fruit and nut mixes that tantalize the senses!
Andy Bellatti is a Master’s Degree candidate at New York University’s Department of Nutrition, Food Studies, and Public Health. He writes a blog called Small Bites Nutrition. You should definitely check it out. He’s very smart and he delivers useful information with no nonsense.
His site lives up to its description on Technorati:
A nutrition blog full of concise, easy to understand information from a New York University Master’s Degree candidate of nutrition. Practical advice and tips with no sponsors to please. "Bringing fad-free nutrition to the web, one post at a time."
Sabra makes great hummus. In fact, Sabra makes my favorite hummus. Their hummus has a creamy texture that others don’t, and its flavor is fantastic – just the way I like it. Now, when I say those things, I am referring to their “classic” hummus, which is just your basic chickpeas, tahini, oil, and spices, no other special flavors added.
This review concerns their Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, and in this case the hummus comes in a single-serving container with a bunch of pretzel crackers to dip into the hummus.
The harvest season has ended and the cold air now sneaks into open doorways and nooks. This year’s soybean crop has been gathered and now is the time to prepare the crop to “transform with the seasons.”
It is 7th century Japan. Buddhism has been introduced in Japan for only several decades. The Buddhist monks in Japan have brought with them, from China, the fine art and secrets of miso-making.
The kitchen in the pagoda is warmed by the wood fires whose flames dance under the bellies of heavy black cauldrons that are filled with soybeans. These will simmer for many hours.
I’ve snacked on raw almonds before. They’re a great mid-afternoon snack. But, a few days ago a friend and I were in Whole Foods and I picked up a bag of tamari almonds out of curiosity. They looked intriguing because they look just like regular almonds but they are a dark, burnt-sienna color (sorry, Crayola) with a light dusting of a powder of some sort. My friend assured me that they were excellent, and told me that he eats them “all the time.”
So, I decided to give ‘em a try.
So, here’s my review of Stacy’s Pesto & Sundried Tomato Pita Chips:
Couple of stats first:
PROS:
You probably didn’t even know cinnamon was good for you! It turns out that cinnamon has some surprising potential health benefits.

Here’s something that I love to have for my 9 or 9:30pm snack while I’m watching some TV.
