  • A chocolate bar a day keeps a heart attack away?

    Jun 30, 2015

    Every once in a great while, the heavens open and a profound truth shines down upon the Earth. This time? Eating up to 100 grams of chocolate a day can lower the risk of heart disease and stroke. Let’s do the math: 100 grams is equal to one of those high-end chocolate bars (think Lindt, Perugina, Vosges), or two Hershey milk chocolate bars, or five Godiva truffles, or 20 Hershey Kisses. We see you shaking your head, as did we. Surely, Valrhona funded this. But no. (“Noooo!” she squealed.) http://www.startribune.com/a-chocola...

  • Obama proposes extending overtime to 5 million, says too many workers getting short-changed

    Jun 30, 2015

    WASHINGTON — Salaried workers who earn nearly $1,000 per week would become eligible for overtime pay under a proposal President Barack Obama announced Monday, lamenting that too many Americans are working too many hours for less pay than they deserve. The long-awaited overtime rule from the Labor Department would more than double the threshold at which employers can avoid paying overtime, from the current $455 a week to $970 a week by next year. That would mean salaried employees earning less than $50,440 a year would be assured overtime if t...

  • Corn syrup's DC attack on sugar could hit Minnesota beet industry

    Jun 30, 2015

    WASHINGTON – An unexpected declaration of war by corn syrup makers against sugar refiners in the nation’s capital will likely resonate in Minnesota’s Red River Valley. The Corn Refiners Association, a trade group made up of four giant agribusinesses including Minnetonka-based Cargill, has hired lobbyists to gut a part of the U.S. sugar program that lets sugar makers pay back government loans with sugar instead of cash. Minnesota’s nation-leading sugar beet growers consider the program’s controversial but long-standing combination of price sup...
