I, too, am a little disappointed that when I say “tasty link,” I’m not talking about sausage. But the savvy Ethicurean makes me feel a little better. They have a cute picture of a pig in a bib. They have a clever acronym for eating responsibly. And they have good newsy bits about eating responsibly (this, so far, seems to be their major usefulness).

It also again makes me envious of all those lucky foodie people cavorting out in San Francisco, where not a day goes by that something delicious isn’t coming into perfect ripeness. Of course eating locally is much lovelier when you don’t have to subsist on turnips for half the year.
