What To Do With Cooking Oil

Many health and nutrition magazine always encourage its readers to practice healthy habits such as proper diet, exercise work outs, good sleep and avoiding vices such as smoking and drinking. Seems pretty easy to be able to do those things, but it is much harder to implement it. For one, work schedule interferes with keeping up with the weight loss and fitness plan.

Most people do not have the time nor the energy to engage in the physically stressful, if not psychological draining cardiovascular exercise and strength training routines. Another factor is the family dinner. Imagine cooking for a family of four. It’s a multitasking nightmare – getting home from work, setting the table, preparing the dishes, preparing the food ingredients, babysitting the kids, looking after the cooking, watching the news. It does not end there. You also have to deal with a wrestling match with your kids if you want them to eat their vegetables. Some don’t eat at all and you are left to eat food leftovers.

To create a healthy lifestyle, one conservative approach so as not to totally alter your work and home routine. It is all about taking baby steps. To paraphrase an adage, one small footstep is just the beginning towards a thousand-mile journey. One baby step to recommend is dealing your cooking oil. Now everybody knows how our everyday cooking oil contains a lot of fats, which is bad for our heart and our cholesterol levels. One way to reduce oil is to remove the skin off the meat, such as pork and chicken. Skin is delicious, but it also contains a lot of oil so when it is fried or steamed, a lot of it melts into the broth or sauce. Similarly, try to steer clear of fatty meat, such as pork chops. Another way to reduce cooking is to use good brands of cookware, especially the ones which does not require putting cooking oil in order to fry foods.

Using cooking oil also entails disposing it properly. Instead of pouring that bottle load of used oil down the drain, collect the used oil into gallon of container that is tightly sealed. Later when it is full, the oil can be deposited at the local solid waste management office. Cooking oil that is collected in Dutch oven cooking can also be saved and collected this way. Maybe a Dutch oven guide has also included ways on how to reduce and recycle cooking oil.

Old links in a new chain: The unlikely resilience of corner stores in Bogota, Colombia.


Old links in a new chain: The unlikely resilience of corner stores in Bogota, Colombia.


$49.99


This study is an attempt to explain why small, family-run neighborhood stores continue to dominate the food market in Bogota. Driven by the expansion of transnational chains, a ’supermarket revolution’ has swept throughout the Third World, transforming food production and retailing. Colombia has been no exception. Supermarkets have grown considerably over the last fifteen years, and now control half of the food market share. Yet the expected demise of traditional retailers never materialized: in Bogota, more than one hundred thousand tiendas de barrio are the keystone of food provisioning for the vast majority of the poor. My central argument is that these stores persist because they are part of—rather than obstacles to—market modernization. Through the development of elaborate delivery systems, the food industry has put mom-n-pop stores at the center of its distribution strategy. The role of neighborhood stores varies across different commodities. I examined comparatively the supply chains of fruits and vegetables, beef, rice, and processed foods to identify patterns of production, distribution and retailing. Perishables are traded largely in spot-markets dominated by traditional wholesalers. Neighborhood store owners buy cheap, low-quality produce and meat at these wholesale markets thus transferring low prices to consumers. Processed goods (dairy, soft drinks, cooking oil and rice) are part of much more vertically integrated chains in which the industrial link plays the leading role. My key finding is that food industries, seeking to offset their weak bargaining position against supermarkets, strengthened their links to traditional retailers. The financial resources needed to attend to such an atomized universe are considerable, but they have allowed food processors to position their brands and attend their customers’ demand for small quantities and low prices. These findings question assumptions that food systems evolve in any predictable fashion. In
