I’m giving the opening keynote at the Maine Grain Alliance’s 2025 Kneading Conference, which culimiantes in the Maine Artisan Bread Fair on July 26. My talk is at 8:30 a.m. at the Strand Cinema in Skowhegan, Maine. I’m really looking forward to this one.

Annals of international food marketing: Chinese Cocoa Bears?
I was in Beijing a couple of weeks ago and did a supermarket tour.
Here’s my favorite souvenir:
Nestlé (no relation) markets to children, apparently.
I regret being unable to read the nutrition information, but this looks like a standard sugary breakfast cereal, chocolate-flavored.
I’m told this would be considered a snack food, not a breakfast food.
Translation, anyone?
