World Hunger Summit Leaders Dine on Cockroach Ragout and Yakitori of Rat, w
2008-07-09 17:53:00
File this under major irony of 2008, but this past Sunday, the world leaders who represent all the countries concerned with the global food crisis, "sat down to an 18-course gastronomic extravaganza at a G8 summit in Japan, which is focusing on the food crisis."Did any of the diners ponder their own hypocrisy for a nanosecond as their ivory chopsticks ascended to their well-fed jowls? Jowls quivering with such delicacies as milk-fed lamb, sea urchin gonads (known as "uni" in Japan), as well as the usual sturgeon roe and sparkling wine from the Champagne region of France (ho hum)?One wonders what an appropriate dinner menu for such an illustrious gathering might be. Anyone care to add to this list? The rules are that it must be:AbundantInexpensiveEasily attainedNot harmful to the environment to raise/growHere's my suggested menu:Mosquito fritter appetizerGarden snail popcornJellyfish sashimi on kudzu leavesPinto beans puree with a soybean reduction sauceCockroach ragoutYakitor...

Hunger Hormone Ghrelin has antidepressant anti-anxiety effect
2008-06-16 12:56:00
The BBC today reported some interesting research from Nature Neuroscience which suggests an important link between Ghrelin (a hormone produced in the stomach to tell the brain to produce feelings of hunger) and depression and anxiety. It is quite hard to tell from the report whether having higher or lower doses of this hormone might help: "Our findings in mice suggest that chronic stress causes Ghrelin levels to go up, and that behaviours associated with depression and anxiety decrease when Ghrelin levels rise," This quote by Dr Zigman would seem to suggest that being hungry makes us calmer. Problem is, a lot of anxious people actually comfort eat and other certainly use foods like chocolate and ice cream to calm themselves down in a crisis. Like the antidepressant Celexa, a side effect of raised Ghrelin levels would be somewhat liable to lead to wight gain, as it induces hunger. Maybe that is something that could be remedied before any potential product came onto the...

Jan Bednar: Hunger Strike Over Radar Base in Czech!

Further, taking a page from John Kerry, BO suggests that our American lifestyle needs to pass some sort Kerry like global test: “[A]nd then just expect that other countries are going to say Ok. Millionaires who live in mansions should not be telling the American voter that has to turn down his thermostat and have his children go hungry.   This nation has plenty of food and  oil reserves.  Yet for some strange reason, BO does want the American people to have ample access to either.  Senator Obama, nat...

Financial speculators reap profits from global hunger
2008-04-26 10:04:00
Under conditions of growing debt defaults arising from the US subprime crisis, speculators and hedge fund groups have increasingly switched their investments from high-risk "bundled" securities into so-called "stores of value," which include gold and oil at one end of the spectrum and "soft commodities" such as corn, cocoa and cattle at the other. The article in the New Statesman points out that "speculators are even placing bets on water prices" and then concludes: "Just like the boom in house prices, commodity price inflation feeds on itself. The more prices rise, and big profits are made, the more others invest, hoping for big returns. Look at the financial web sites: everyone and their mother is piling into commodities.... The trouble is that if you are one of the 2.8 billion people, almost half the world's population, who live on less than $2 a day, you may pay for these profits with your life." Investment in "soft commodities" is currently highly recommended by lea...
Hunger Plagues Haiti and the World
2008-04-25 09:05:00
by Stephen Lendman Consumers in rich countries feel it in supermarkets but in the world's poorest ones people are starving. The reason - soaring food prices, and it's triggered riots around the world in places like Mexico, Indonesia, Yemen, the Philippines, Cambodia, Morocco, Senegal, Uzbekistan, Guinea, Mauritania, Egypt, Cameroon, Bangladesh, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Peru, Bolivia and Haiti that was once nearly food self-sufficient but now relies on imports for most of its supply and (like other food-importing countries) is at the mercy of agribusiness. Wheat shortages in Peru are acute enough to have the military make bread with potato flour (a native crop). In Pakistan, thousands of troops guard trucks carrying wheat and flour. In Thailand, rice farmers take shifts staying awake nights guarding their fields from thieves. The crop's price has about doubled in recent months, it's the staple for half or more of the world's population, but rising prices and fearing scarcit...

Biofuel: filling your tank with hunger
2008-04-23 23:59:00
The UN is calling for action to avoid the "silent tsunami of rising food prices which threatens to push more than 100 million people worldwide into hunger" (http://www.un.org/). Protests against rising costs of basic foods already started in Haiti, Mexico, the Philippines, Bangladesh, South Africa.... Sub-Saharan Africans continue their decades-old silent protest, dying slowly, quietly, dryly.I recall now the bad feeling I had last year when I read about Bush's visit to ethanol-driven Brazil. Biofuel production is said to be responsible for at least one third of the recent increase in food prices. It was already being called ?deforestation fuel?. Now it?s also ?hunger fuel?.But it?s bio. «Quand je dors chez mon copain, on mange tout le temps bio» (Sanseverino, «Cette conne m'ennuie»). Blogging in Luxembourg. In engrish.
