That's what 17 year old Daniel Jeffrey Martin from Desert Vista High School heard from his mom one day while driving near a piece of the desert near his home town of Phoenix, Arizona. "Huh?" he asked.
His mom, a forensic scientist (think: CSI), explained to him that when dead bodies are found in the desert by animals like coyotes, bobcats, and wolves, these scavengers will usually eat them—except for the bodies of methamphetamine users (proven by an autopsy).
Daniel thought this would be a perfect science fair project so he studied the records from the local county coroner's office. And sure enough—he learned that even scavenging animals don't want to go near the nasty chemicals left in the body by meth.
These photos from Daniel's science fair poster show the type of marks left by animal scavengers on bones. In his study, Daniel learned that the coroner found fewer scavenging marks on bodies that contained traces of methamphetamines.
The science project was so well done that Daniel won a Second Place Addiction Science Award from NIDA at the 2009 Intel International Science and Engineering Fair. You can read more about his project at NIDA's Web site.
Amazing finding!
@ricky westover, we're not sure that meth makes you look "plastic," but it definitely changes your appearance for the worse. Frequent meth users lose their teeth and they pick their skin until that have horrible scabs all over their faces. And yes, meth makes you hallucinate. Meth users pick at their skin because they believe they feel imaginary bugs on or under their skin. Learn more on our post, Meth Mouth and Crank Bugs: Meth-a-morphosis.
I have a brother addicted to meth. I am doing a essay for college on drugs, and I think this will be the main topic .It is very interesting to know that even animals know when they are being poisoned.Pretty smart animals aren't they? To bad the two legged ones are not so smart.
I also have a brother addicted to meth.But he was tryingi to reach out for help no he was crying out for help,meth had sent him over and over to the justice system due to robbery to support habit.He finally breaks down and ask his parole officer for help no bed available for treatment.next visit with parole officer he revokes him and sends him back to jail without treatment ever available for him to seek.confused
i didnt know meth could do so much damage
I am a mother of 2. This article is one of a billion I am finding important about meth. My teen is 13, strongly involved in D.A.R.E. I am concerned by the bias of kids that seem strong in not doing drugs, against those that have slipped....I am seeing what is called "dark humor" jokes at the expense of those that could be drug free. How can these support programs approach this problem to deter this? The jokes are sickening - I am worried for children not mine.... seeking help & shunned... like past issues of history? Black jokes, Polish, Jewish, SO inappropriate... what about these kids on meth & other things seeing this bias?
i can see why people get into it makes monye
im a recovering meth user and im in rehab but i wanted to know who long it takes your body to fully recover?
@nokia: If people can stay off methamphetamine for an extended period, they can get some recovery from the brain changes that the drug causes. But even through brain imaging studies have shown partial recovery of brain function in some regions following extended abstinence, function in other regions did not show recovery even after 2 years of abstinence. This suggests that long-lasting and even permanent brain changes may result from methamphetamine abuse.

Im a common meth user i suck [del. vulgar lang] for meth everyday. DON'T TRY IT!! My addictions got that bad
thats just messed up you
one of my friends dose meth, but i haven't seen her in two years, i hope she gets better soon.i just hope she gets better.
Matt, im sorry ur going through this. my dad was a meth head. he was shot trying to rob a covenece store. i havent seen him since i was 8
95% of all young people try drugs and alcohol by age 25...driven by curiousity, perhaps boredom and peer pressure. MOST teens can put those drugs down when they experience consequences of use. Those of us who inherited a tendency to become addicts... just can't do it. It isn't a moral issue, it is (at least in part) a physiological issue. American Medical Association has listed addiction as a disease since 1957, yet the only "treatment" for the disease is "talk therapy", which may work for (tops) about 30% of those addicted. Recovery rates from heroin and meth? Less than 10%. This same country of ours has eleventeen different drugs available to treat erectile dysfunction. Sort of highlights where our priorities lie, I'm afraid. If we had a gene therapy treatment, or an innoculation or even a chemotherapy treatment for addiction, I believe our prisons would be empty in less than a decade; more families would stay together; and more children would be saved. But those of us who 'vote' for more jails and less rehab might want to try to see beyond the terrible behaviors of those who use meth, heroin and other drugs, and consider that these horrid acts are being conducted by our children... who are often addicted far before they leave high school. As a mom of an addict, I know how heartbreaking addiction can be.
I just heard this on CSI so of course I had to google it. All I can say is WOW. I remember a report on one of those shows like 48 hours where a couple had purchased a house in which it was a meth lab. They did not know that meth users had lived there because I think it was like a hud house or something. Well they begin to get sick and had to move out and foreclose on the house. They found out later that a the house was once a meth lab. I guess that is another thing to have done before you buy a home. To test for meth use and mold.
Congrats on the awesome work on the destructive use of meth use.
this gave alot of information thank you this is a very good website to go to when i need to give a friend help i will tell them to go to this site
I agree my friend looked terrible and he came in with scars and he looked like he died inside.
im doin a science fair project on meth so any advices can help!! thanks! btw sorry about your problems people!!

UH Hilo Mookini Library replenishes Hamilton Library's Government Documents CollectionUniversity of Hawaiʻi
Hamilton Library
The University of Hawaiʻi-Hilo's Moʻokini Library, a participant in the Federal Depository Library Program, has transferred the majority of its federal government publications to UH Mānoa's Hamilton Library Government Documents Collection. The documents will replenish about 15 percent of the collection's 95 percent loss that resulted from the October 30, 2004 flood damage.
"Moʻokini Library's documents will fill in many gaps, particularly for scientific and technical literature and historical documents," said Gwen Sinclair, Head of the Government Documents & Maps Department at the UH Mānoa Library. "We are extremely grateful to UH Hilo for providing us with so many of their documents."
Moʻokini Library is one of hundreds of libraries and organizations throughout the United States that have provided the UH Mānoa Library with replacement copies of documents lost in the flood. Moʻokini Library will continue to maintain a current collection of federal government publications to serve both the UH Hilo community and the entire Big Island. Documents transferred to the UH Mānoa Library will be available to UH Hilo's patrons through interlibrary loan.
The UH Hilo Library was designated a Federal Depository Library in 1962. As a selective depository, the library receives a portion of the documents distributed to depository libraries by the Government Printing Office. The UH Mānoa Library, as one of 53 regional depository libraries in the nation, is required to maintain a comprehensive collection of government publications and to make them available to the public.

- Luxembourg-Ville
Luxembourg Travel Information
The Basics
GMT +1 (GMT +2 between the last Sunday in March and the last Sunday in October)
230 volts, 50Hz. European-style two-pin plugs are used.
The official language in Luxembourg is Luxembourgish, a conglomerate German/French dialect. French and German are commonly used, and English is widely spoken.
Travel Health
No vaccination certificates are required for entry to Luxembourg, and there are no health risks associated with travel to the country. Medical facilities are of a high standard in cities but may be limited outside of urban areas.
British citizens should carry a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) in order to qualify for free emergency medical treatment. Travellers should have medical insurance when going to Luxembourg.
If you require certain medications during your trip, it's best to bring them with you in their original packaging with a signed and dated letter from your doctor detailing what the medication is and why you need it.
Hotel and restaurant bills generally include a service charge in Luxembourg. Porters and doormen in upmarket hotels appreciate small tips and taxi drivers expect a tip of around 10 percent.
Safety Information
Travel to and around Luxembourg is very safe and the country has low crime rates. Visitors should take normal precautions against pick-pockets and petty theft, but trips are likely to be trouble free.
Local Customs
Luxembourg is a proud and stable country, with a culture surprisingly closed off to foreign influences and marked by formal, even ceremonial, social interactions. European visitors will find Luxembourg's social milieu to be very similar to that of France or Germany, although perhaps slightly more conservative.
Be sure not to put your feet up on tables or chairs, or to point your finger when referring to someone, as this is rude. Body language is quite muted in Luxembourg, and it's considered impolite to inquire about someone's private affairs unless you know them well.
French is the language of business in Luxembourg, though some German and English is also used. Translators are readily available but some effort at speaking French will be appreciated. Business exchanges are quite formal, beginning with a handshake and an exchange of business cards.
Punctuality is essential and dress is formal, with a suit and tie the norm. Surnames and titles are usually used. Luxembourgers are polite and cautious, and it's important to build personal relationships. Business hours are usually 8.30am to 5.30pm Monday to Friday, often closing for an hour at lunch.
The country code for Luxembourg is +352. Free wifi is widely available at hotels, cafes and restaurants in tourist areas.
Duty Free
Travellers over 17 years arriving from non-EU countries do not have to pay duty on 200 cigarettes, or 100 cigarillos, or 50 cigars, or 250g tobacco, or a proportional mix of these; 1 litre spirits with alcohol content higher than 22%, 2 litres of spirits with alcohol content below 22%, 4 litres of wine, 16 litres of beer, or a proportional mix of these.

text: Monday, May 13, 2013 Sequestration Does Not Mandate 2% Medicare Advantage Plan Reduction to be Forwarded to Contracted Providers Physical therapists and other health care providers that contract with Medicare Advantage plans should check their agreements to make sure their payments aren't erroneously being cut by 2% as part of sequestration. CMS clarified in a May 1 memo to Medicare Advantage organizations and others that sequestration does not mandate a 2% reduction of reimbursement to Medicare Advantage plan contracted providers. Medicare Advantage plans themselves are subject to the 2% reductions; however, Medicare Advantage plans cannot pass along sequestration cuts to providers unless their contracts with specific providers permit the pass-through. If providers determine that their contracts don't permit these cuts, they should consider challenging the reductions as contrary to their participation and network agreements. Comments This just came up on our radar screen with a payer (United Healthcare) for whom we are not contracted with and are considered Out of Network. Should we as well be able to challenge their decision to pass along the 2% reductions? Posted by Scott Spradling on 5/14/2013 11:16 AM Medicare Advantage allows individuals to choose from a wide range of competing plans that may offer richer benefits. http://www.healthcaretownhall.com/?p=6705 Posted by Jeremy Engdahl-Johnson on 5/15/2013 11:07 AM Could you please post the link to the memo you're referring to? Posted by Maggie Dean on 5/15/2013 1:06 PM I am not able to find this clarification memo on the CMS website. Will you please post a link so it can be used as 'proof' when appealing claims. thank you. Posted by Warren Bush -> @IW_D on 5/17/2013 4:17 PM I just got a notice from Regence Insurance in Washington state that they are cutting our rates by 2% due to sequestration beginning in September. Please post the link to the CMS memo, so I can refer to it specifically when I speak to the provider relations dept. Thanks Posted by Melissa on 5/30/2013 12:55 AM The memo in question is linked in the story above (see hyperlinked text: "May 1 memo"). Posted by News Now Staff on 5/30/2013 7:41 AM Here is a link with a copy of the memo issued to the MAs and PDs dated 05/01/13: http://www.mha.org/mha/weeklymailing/2013/051313/clarify_sequester.pdf Posted by Fabian Pak on 6/13/2013 1:30 PM

I have registered me a couple days ago and just want to introduce myself.
I am a 26 year old guy from Germany and prefer building MOCs about Castle and Middle Earth.
The lego virus got me half a year ago, and after admiring the beatiful entrys to the CCX, I decided to build more medieval and natural scenes.
The main reason for my registration was signing in to the LCC, what I will do in a couple days.
Also I am participating at the MOCpages Middel Earth Olympics, and hope to some nice results.

When it comes to modeling and simulation, automotive engineers want it all. They want models of the vehicle, the components, and the environment. Engineers designing electric vehicles need to combine electrical, mechanical, and other domains in a single model. They want models that run in desktop simulation and in real time. And, no matter how complete the model provided by the software vendor is, they need the ability to customize it further. To meet all of these requirements, the best option can be the combination of two compatible solutions. The ability to create custom models of vehicles and vehicle components delivered by MathWorks physical modeling solutions combined with Automotive Simulation Models (ASM) from dSPACE enables engineers to create the exact model required for all tasks for Model-Based Design. This session covers the advantages of each environment and how they complement each other.

It's upsetting to think about the canaries in the mines singing to their heart's content only to topple over and die when toxic gases make their presence felt during the mining process. The alternative, of course, is to sacrifice miners. Thankfully, choosing the lesser of two evils will no longer be necessary (actually, I don't they've used canaries in quite a while) as scientists work on sensors that can detect any number of things not just toxic gases in the mines. The University of Massachusetts at Lowell is the latest to announce work on sensors (from the Nov. 15, 2012 news item on Nanowerk),
To detect the toxicity of engineered nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotubes, on living cells, electrical engineering Assoc. Prof. Joel Therrien — along with biology Prof. Susan Braunhut, chemistry Prof. Kenneth Marx and work environment Asst. Prof. Dhimiter Bello — has developed a "nanocanary," the modern-day, high-tech equivalent of the canary in a coal mine that warned miners of dangerous buildups of toxic gases in the mine shaft.
The nanocanary is an ultrasensitive biosensor designed to continuously monitor tiny physiological changes in the live cells contained within it.
The Nov. 14, 2012 news release by Edwin L. Aguirre, which originated the news item, mentions a recent podcast by one of the researchers (Joel Therrien),
In a recent podcast produced by the Museum of Science in Boston, Therrien talked about the importance of studying how nano-sized particles affect human health and the environment as well as in the safe development of commercial nano products.
"Our biosensor has a wide range of applications, from testing for toxicity in nanomanufacturing to drug development and customized cancer therapeutics," notes Therrien.
"In testing the toxicity of carbon nanotubes, for example, since the sensor can directly detect adverse effects on living cells, we are able to identify the threshold concentration at which carbon nanotubes lead to the cells' death," he explains. "The sensor can also be used to test the response of normal and cancerous cells to drug therapies. In the future, this technology may help guide oncologists in selecting the most appropriate drug for a cancer patient. We also see the potential for this to partially replace animals in testing drugs and other products."
Therrien's 16 min. podcast can be heard here.

Keeping Your Laptop From Being Stolen
The feature we love most about our laptops – mobility – makes them easy targets for thieves. While replacing a stolen laptop can be expensive, the value of the data it contains may well exceed the cost of the laptop itself.
Here are a few tips to protect your laptop and the information it contains:
- Treat your laptop like cash. Imagine a stack of money equal to what your laptop is worth. Would you leave that amount of money on a coffee shop table while you refresh your latte? Probably not. Picturing your laptop as a stack of cash will help you to be more vigilant.
- Keep it locked. No matter where you are using your laptop, attach it to something immovable or to a heavy piece of furniture with a laptop security cable.
- Encrypt the data. You can protect your personal data even if your laptop does go missing by encrypting the hard disk. There are a number of commercial products available that will prevent your laptop from even starting up without a password.
- Keep your passwords elsewhere. Leaving your passwords in your laptop carrying case is like leaving the keys in your car. Memorize your passwords or store them securely elsewhere – not in the carrying case or on the laptop itself.
- Leave your computer bag at home. When you take your laptop on the road, carrying it in a computer case may advertise what's inside. Consider using a suitcase, a padded briefcase or a backpack instead.
- Don't leave it in the car. Not only is the extreme heat and cold in your car bad for your laptop, but parked cars are a favorite target of laptop thieves. If you must leave your laptop in your car, keep it out of sight by placing it in the trunk.
- Pay close attention at airport security checkpoints. The chaos and confusion at airport security checkpoints make them perfect for laptop thieves. Additionally, because so many laptops look the same, it is easy to pick up the wrong one on the other side of the screener. Mark your laptop distinctly so that you can easily track it as you go through security. Hold onto it until the person in front of you has gone through the metal detector – and keep an eye out when it emerges on the other side of the screener.
- Be vigilant in hotels. Try not to leave your laptop out inside your hotel room while you are out. Instead, take it with you or use the safe in your room if there is one.
- Report it promptly. If your laptop is stolen, report it immediately to the local authorities. If it's your business laptop that's missing, also immediately notify your employer.

Manchester United striker Rooney celebrated skippering the Three Lions on home soil for the first time by scoring twice to move to fifth in their all-time leading scorer list. The 26-year-old will return the armband to Steven Gerrard for Tuesday's trip to Poland but made it clear he would love to succeed his fellow Liverpudlian in the role.
He said: "If you can get the opportunity to captain your country, it's something which I think - as a player - you need to grab with both hands. In the future, hopefully that'll happen. But, at the minute, Steven's our captain and he'll lead by example for us."
Friday night was not the first time Rooney had skippered England but it was the first at Wembley.
"To actually lead a team out, you look up, you see the crowd and - the atmosphere - it's quite a feeling," he added. "To captain your country at Wembley is the greatest honour you can have.
"It's something that, as a young boy, you dream of and to actually do it is a great honour for me something which I'll take and cherish for the rest of my life."
That included keeping hold of the armband from the game. "It's a great honour which I'll keep forever," said Rooney, revealing he did not do the same with his shirt, which would have been a prize souvenir for the San Marino squad.
"I gave it to one of the players," he added. "I've given my shorts as well. That's a first. It's a great opportunity for them to come to play at Wembley in front of 86,000 fans."

Well, the only Santa Arin's seen was last year and this year at the Library. There are a lot more up on facebook. It was a fun night, involving a real firetruck that Arin got to get up and play in, and the biggest Christmas tree ever lit up all pretty! Lots of fun for the little guy (and me, hee hee!)
Nothing fancy, but here he is:
The past few days when I've had spare moments they have been spent cleaning up baby barf or barfing myself. Oh, and we lost power for a day in that horrible ice storm. Our lines our still ripped off our house and in the driveway. Yey for safety, thanks National Grid for fixing it so promptly! Let me tell you, having to yak over and over again in a 20 degree bathroom is less than fun, in case you were wondering.

The first voice in Tennessee Williams' "The Glass Menagerie" belongs to Tom Wingfield, a budding poet trapped in a boring day job. Serving as guide through the playwright's exquisitely crafted layers of memory and anxiety, Tom dispenses "truth in the pleasant disguise of illusion."
For its season-opening production of this certified classic of the American stage, Everyman Theatre has cast one of its most versatile and gifted resident artists, Clinton Brandhagen, as Tom.
"I had to read the play in high school," the Calgary-born Brandhagen, 36, said, "but I never looked at it again."
The actor has been making up for that time gap, plunging into the world of Williams and "The Glass Menagerie," which put the author on the map in 1945.
Brandhagen feels a certain connection to Tom, especially that character's determination to get out of a financially steady, but unsatisfying, routine and pursue a dream.
"I can draw on some personal family issues," Brandhagen said. "My family didn't want me to be an actor. I live hand-to-mouth, but I love what I do, so I don't see it as a job."
His list of credits includes a Broadway engagement with Tyne Daly in Terrence McNally's "Master Class" and performances with several theater companies in Washington. In 2007, he joined the Everyman troupe and quickly made his mark.
Vibrant performances in Tracy Letts' "August: Osage County" last season and productions of Arthur Miller's "All My Sons" and Charles Ludlam's "The Mystery of Irma Vep" a few seasons earlier have revealed Brandhagen's range.
For "Menagerie," which is being directed by company artistic director Vincent Lancisi, the actor zeroed in on the much-discussed autobiographical side of the play. Williams' own family is very much reflected in the play; a big part of the playwright's nature may be in there, too.
"A lot of people say that Tom is gay because Tennessee Williams was gay. I looked for places in the text that would justify that," Brandhagen said. "I think it is there, especially in Tom's very last speech. But you can't preconceive too much. I just put it all in a blender and play it out."
Tom's way of escaping from home life is late-night movies and bars. Brandhagen has an escape mechanism, too — not that he ever feels the need to run away from the theater. In his case, it's all about adding another fulfilling dimension to his life.
In 2000, after a few years on the road as an actor, Brandhagen bought a camera and some self-teaching books. One focus of his new interest was fellow thespians.
"I got tired of seeing good actors with bad head shots," he said. "That's how photography completely filled up my life when I'm not onstage."
Brandhagen, who lives primarily in New York and partly in Baltimore, developed his own business that has attracted clients in the theater and corporate worlds.
He also does artistic photography (despite being colorblind); one specialty is cityscapes. He often layers multiple photos to produce a rich, painterly-looking image — a form of "pleasant illusion" the character of Tom would appreciate.
People are noticing Brandhagen's work, and buying it. He raised $2,000 for a Broadway Fights AIDS benefit selling seven prints.
"I'm always taking pictures," Brandhagen said. "I'm working on a book now of actors backstage, their in-between time in front of mirrors, when they're going from themselves into character."
If you go
"The Glass Menagerie" runs through Oct. 6 at Everyman Theatre, 315 W. Fayette St. Tickets are $10 to $60. Call 410-752-2208 or go to everymantheatre.org.

Mr. Pickle's is an awesome sandwich shop that has many locations throughout the Sacramento area. They make big sandwiches that are well priced for what you get. They are located in Oakshade Town Center where Davis Creamery used to be. Mr. Pickles is not a real person, so don't go in there looking for him or you'll be in for some disappointment. The owners of the Mr. Pickles franchise are Frank and Michelle Fagundes. The owners of the Davis location are Bonnie and Mickey Mann, disproving the suspicion that it may in fact be the real Mr. Pickles. (In contrast, there really is a Mr. Coyote who owns Dos Coyotes).
Sometimes there is a giant dancing pickle out near the intersection and when there isn't there may be an employment opportunity available.
A free cookie is given to those who purchase a sandwich. A low carb, low fat wrap option is also available. The "Tuna Tuna" sandwich with everything on a Dutch Crunch roll is over 1500 calories for a mere $7.25. But why stop there? Add in some Baja Sauce, Bacon and extra cheese and you surpass the 2000 calorie mark for under $10.

2012-12-06 23:49:38 The employees are friendly and ensure your order is correct. The sandwiches taste great, and I really like their Dutch crunch rolls. Much better quality in service and food than Subway. —Kacarab
2013-01-02 12:32:00 Their sandwhiches are good, but the issue is they don't do "assembly line" ordering like subway or chipotle. So, there are two sandwhich makers helping one customer at a time, while the cashier does nothing. This makes it very difficult to get your order quickly...if there are 2 people ahead of you and 2 up at the sandwhich counter, you are looking at 15 minute wait (compare to probably a 5 minute wait at one of the places I mentioned above) —potsie
2013-02-17 12:37:05 All I have to say is, holy club sandwich! I have yet to order something I don't love from this place. Also, everyone is so friendly - and their catering sandwiches are surprisingly good too! —mooodavis
2013-04-30 12:37:05 Based on my one experience I would say Mr. Pickles makes a decent sandwich that is priced comparably to the Nugget. The "Mr. Pickles" sandwich was much better than the "Got Beef" and the Dutch Crunch bread seems to result in more fillings and less bread.—MikeyCrews
2013-10-25 12:20:58 The sandwiches here are really good and they have creative combinations. I love the free cookie and they occasionally have deals like soda's for 99 cents. The only gripe I have is the fact that they close so early so if you eat dinner later than 7 during the week or 5 on weekends, you're outta luck. —KathrynAzarvand

Growing Self-Fulfilling Humans

Philadelphia is a major center of both professional and college sports. With all four of the "major" pro sports leagues, indoor and MLS soccer, indoor and outdoor lacrosse represented, in addition to four minor league baseball teams within 60 miles of campus and dozens of college teams on all levels, there are few metropolitan areas in the United States with as many opportunities for careers in sports than Philadelphia. As the size and scope of the industry grows, there is increasing demand for qualified people to serve on the business side of these organizations.
The sports marketing major at Saint Joseph's University is designed to create value for students by preparing them to succeed in careers in the global sports industry. Sports Marketing at Saint Joseph's is rooted in a strong liberal arts program which emphasizes values and ethics consistent with the University's Catholic mission and the Ignatian tradition, and offered within the context of a strong general business education. We will impart knowledge, skills and experience that will create well-rounded graduates who can succeed in leadership positions in the today's global sports industry.
As the sports industry continues to expand, as measured by more leagues, teams and events; interest in fantasy leagues; many more media choices and a huge increase in programming; expanded front office staffs; etc., plus the increasing use of sports as a platform for promoting products by manufacturers of consumer goods, there is increasing and significant interest in sports business as a career choice.

This question is dedicated to the more "green-minded" readers of DCF.
Note: M.I.Y.O. Monday stands for Make It Your Own Monday, a question thrown out to DCF readers every Monday to jumpstart the week with lively interaction. I also welcome questions and suggestions for future MIYO Mondays. Email me.
Do you remember the salad bar of Wendy's in the 90s? It was where Pinoys pushed the boundaries of balance by constructing teetering towers of power on a platter that wasn't designed for such architectural feats. I've got salad on the brain after receiving an email from a DCF reader: "Was wondering if you ever put out a list of best salads? I'm always thinking of where to order a good salad in my attempt to eat healthy. I usually go to Cyma or Apt 1B for their Caesar salad but getting kinda bored of these choices already."
I'm not a fan of salads simply because the ones I like can't possibly be healthy. I love La Copa's Caesar Salad and the aforementioned Cyma's Roka Insalata, which some would say is the best salad in Manila. But these salads are creamy and sweet and loaded with oil and sugar. When I want a salad, I'll make one for myself at home with raw vegetables and no dressing. Boring as all got out but healthy as hell. When I go out to eat, eating healthy is not a top priority. A restaurant meal is a luxury I treat myself to on my cheat days because for the majority of the week, I prepare my own meals, salads included.
But for those of us who don't have a choice and when you find yourself in a restaurant wanting to eat a little healthier, salads are a terrific option. And if creamy dressings and caramelized walnuts are going to help you get your daily serving of fruits and veg in, then all the better.
So tell me, where do you get a good salad?
