		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;re a fan of Libby&#8217;s canned pumpkin and don&#8217;t want to use another or make your own puree, stock up now. The harvest has been stopped.

		<description><![CDATA[Let me emphasize at the start that I&#8217;m NOT in any way suggesting people not use these products, nor do I look askance at anyone who does. I totally get their appeal and convenience, which led me to discover some eye-openers on the packages a few years ago. I like knowing what&#8217;s in packages; nobody [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[After Margaret Thatcher met the then-USSR&#8217;s rising star, Mikhail Gorbachev, in 1984 she famously declared, &#8220;He&#8217;s a man we can do business with.&#8221; When it comes to salt-free seasonings, Mural of Flavor is my Gorbachev.
I&#8217;ve tried so many others over the years. Either they were bitter or too bland or just tasted like what they [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don’t usually espouse buying spice mixes and blends that can be put together quickly at home, but pumpkin pie spice is an exception even though I don’t use it in pie; my favorite recipe uses individual spices instead. I do use it in other baked goods. It’s a smart buy not only because it [...]]]></description>

And I wondered, since high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is a cheap alternative, responsible for 1 in 10 calories consumed by the average American, if that might in turn require [...]]]></description>
