Today, American children are in the midst of an unsettling crisis because they are not being provided with the skills to eat and cook healthy. More than fifteen million children face hunger and, according to the Center for Disease Control, “one in three American kids and teens is overweight or obese.”  In low-income communities, children “are becoming obese at rates higher than the national average” and “40% of children in African American and Hispanic communities are overweight or obese.”  Additionally, those who are faced with these conditions are “at risk for asthma, heart disease, diabetes and other chronic health conditions.”  Fortunately, the non-profit organization Common Threads has made it their mission to teach children, families, and educators how to cook for life.

Dare To Pair with Adam Richman & Alamos Wines

by xoJohn

A few of New York City’s food aficionados gathered at The Tasting Table where TV Host and Author Adam Richman put together his “Daring Pairings” for Alamos Wines. In case you didn’t know, Alamos Wines hail from Argentina and offers the best of Mendoza’s high altitude vineyards. Alamos grapes are grown at the foothills of the Andes Mountains at elevations of 3,000 to 5,000 feet, where intense sunlight, cool evening temperatures and mineral-rich irrigation from mountain snowmelt translate to rich wines with intense flavor characteristics.
