Brew that coffee! Pour that OJ! And settle in this morning to catch up on what's happening in the world of food. Here's what we're reading (and watching) this week.

• You learn something every day: we always wondered how the bark of a tree was turned into those tiny plugs for our favorite elixir. So that's how corks are made ... (wineanorak.com)

• The story behind our queen of gluten-free (with whom we partnered on this week's contest) as she flourlessly found love. (Gilt Taste) 

Shop the Story

• Ever find yourself ranting on the wasteful 15-second life of takeout containers or bought food packaging? Behold the Austin grocers pioneering a zero waste, package-free system. It's about time we think of the fish. (Good)

• The bastard child of the poached egg and the over easy, we are obsessed with ruffly eggs. Thank you, Dorie, thank you. (Dorie Greenspan)

• Boy are we thankful for the good ol' First Amendment right about now: A food blogger goes to jail in Taipei. (Taipei Times)

• If the trailer is any indication, A Sustainable Reality promises to be an elegantly produced documentary of ideologically aware food communities springing up all over the country. (Kickstarter)

Feed52 is so well done - enjoy reading the intro. to the stories as much as the stories themselves. I can't wait to try Dorie's ruffly eggs w/a side of bacon. In San Francisco, we have Rainbow Grocery, the 1.0 version of the Austin store. The bulk bins area is worth the trip alone. It's where I got most of my ingredients for Merrill's no-bake granola bars. Happy to see more stores encouraging their customers to reduce/reuse.
