Best of the Foodweb: NPR’s The Salt

By Kelli Swensen, Dietetics Student, Sargent College

What do you get when you combine excellent journalism with food: NPR’s The Salt. Unlike many food articles today, The Salt features researched posts that are driven by food news, not diet crazes. While you won’t find a recipe for dinner tonight or pictures that make your mouth water, you will become a better informed consumer. Trying to pick out a couple articles to highlight, I ended up with a list of over ten that I felt everyone should read. Don’t worry, I won’t bog you down with ten plus articles, but I do strongly encourage you to add The Salt to your daily news feed!
