Chipotle BOOritos - Halloween 2011

I <3 Chipotle! Not only because of the mouth-watering yumminess, but also because they are use real, wholesome ingredients.

This year for Halloween, you can eat at Chipotle for just $2!

From their website:
"This Halloween, we're celebrating family farms and their dedication to the land they live on and the delicious food they produce. To join in on the party, come into any Chipotle on Halloween from 6 pm to closing dressed in a costume inspired by the family farm and we'll hook you up with a burrito, bowl, salad, or an order of tacos made with responsibly raised ingredients for just $2."

That should be easy enough, most of us have a pair of cat ears, or jeans and a flannel shirt, or something we can come up with out of our closets to be a "farm character"!

Butter!

Paula Deen's best friend: butter!

This will be a short post, I just wanted to share this picture of the difference in color between butter from grass-fed cows versus corn-fed cows.

Left (Yellow!) - Butter from grass-fed cows
Right (White) - Butter from corn-fed cows

Butter from grass-fed cows is higher in Vitamin A / Beta Carotene (hence the yellow color), Vitamin E, Vitamin K2, and Omega-3s, and lower in Omega-6s.
