When it comes to favorite foods, we're a finicky bunch here in Minnesota, and you won't believe which common food has just been named our Most Hated Vegetable.

Got any spare rhubarb you can donate?

One woman in Duluth has started a new trend with the little libraries you see in people yards, instead of books you can find seeds.

A recent survey discovered that more than a quarter - that's 25% - of adult Americans have never eaten a vegetable

This last week my wife and I started a weight loss program.  Of course with any healthy eating nutritional plan, it requires a lot of fresh vegetables.  Cucumbers, lettuce, cabbage, tomatoes, asparagus, chard, spinach, apples, strawberries, etc. are all on the menu.  The first time I went through the checkout, I was rather shocked.

Take two bowls of fruit salad and call me in the morning! Doctors at select clinics across the country are writing some obese patients "prescriptions" for fruits and vegetables.

Taste of Home has a great way to get the kids to eat their carrots, make them FRIES!!!  But, that's just their shape.  They are healthy because they are roasted in Olive Oil.  I sprinkled a little cinnamon and sugar on as I pulled them hot out of the oven.  Super easy and unique way to serve carrots!

I came out of the womb with a porterhouse steak in one hand, and a 2/3 bacon cheeseburger in the other.  It's a true story.  You can look it up on my long form birth certificate.   Well, I'm growing up.  I figured since the only time I eat vegetables is when it's on a burger, I should change that...
