A California biotech company has gotten early USDA approval to create rice that's been genetically-modified with the human genes that produce breast milk.
It was halfway through the second episode of Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip. My hand, bearing a potato chip laden with French onion dip, stopped halfway to my mouth. Unless the show got cancelled, which I was hoping was unlikely (Who knew that Matthew Perry could so convincingly play a character other than Chandler?)

Summer is the season for tomatoes and basil! But with pesto usually off-limits for people with food allergies—it traditionally contains tree nuts and dairy—I set about creating an allergen-free version of the original. The sweet and tangy roasted cherry tomatoes are the perfect compliment to the earthy flavor of the basil and the smokiness of the grilled chicken. Upon tasting this recipe, my 4 1/2 year-old son, Lennon (who has food allergies) even asked, "Can I have this pasta for lunch every day?" There is no greater compliment.
