I think larger districts can implement changes with creativity and courage. The Baltimore School District adopted a ‘Meatless Monday’ program a year or so ago. They took some flak from anchors on Fox News, the American Meat Institute and other industry groups, but I think locally the program was well received. Here’s one article : http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2009/10/meatless-mondays-draw-industry-ire/29092/

Comment on Tofu and King Oyster Mushrooms by veggicurious

H-mart isn’t really cheaper than the other Asian markets. It is easier to get to if you don’t have a car, because it’s just a block of the 69th St. subway stop. It has a food court upstairs, which makes for a fun trip. And it has a MUCH better selection or produce, which is why I think it’s a winner. There are two brands of sweet soy sauce I usually buy: Kwong Hung Seng (or dragon fly brand, with the blue label) and ABC, which is an Indonesian Brand. The ABC brand is an actual sweet soy, and some sweeter than the dragonfly, which is considered a “black” soy sauce. DragonFly brand does not have preservatives, so you should store it in your fridge. I bought Healthy Boy brand this last trip, so I’ll give that a try. I’m not sure about the ingredients in either ABC or Healthy Boy. BUT if you can’t find one you like, you can make your own:

You can use this recipe, or for emergency’s mix brown sugar with soy sauce! http://www.whats4eats.com/sauces/kecap-manis-recipe

Yum! a couple questions–i don’t think i’ve ever been to hmart. is it sufficiently cheaper or better than the asian groceries in philly to make up for the bridge toll? also, i looked for dark sweet soy to make pad see ew recently and could only find ones that had msg. Do you have one that doesn’t? Thanks!
