If you are frying a steak and mindful of your health, then marinate it in either beer or red wine. So say food scientists who measured amounts of a family of carcinogens found in fried steaks after steeping them in booze.
Cooking food increases levels of cancer-causing compounds called heterocyclic amines (HAs). Fried and grilled meat are particularly high in these compounds, because fiery temperatures convert the sugars and amino acids in muscle tissue into HAs. [....]
VB going soft | August 21st, 2009 |
It was recently announced that Australia’s highest selling beer, Victoria Bitter, will cut its alcohol content by 0.2% to 4.6% next month.
This action was taken in order to curb an increase in retail price, as ingredients (such as barley) have risen 20% due to the drought. This is in addition to the 0.1% decrease that occurred in 2005.
The Herald Sun interviewed a number of people and there was a general assumption that drinkers wouldn’t be [....]

Beer-Filled USB Drive Raises Disturbing Questions | February 15th, 2009 |
Thirsty For Beer like this Beer-Filled USB Flash Drive really make me question the basics. More than my first-year philosophy class did, anyway. Existential angst, the downfall of western civilization, and “customizable floaties” after the jump.
Is capitalism really that great, if it leads to beer-filled USB flash drives with “optional customizable floating objects” inside? Should the Americans really be that pleased with their free speech, if it means I get emails from people who make flash drives with [....]
NicoShot: Beer with Nicotine | February 7th, 2009 |
Now this is just excellent. A German brewer has created a frosty lager for smoking cessation. Each can contains 6.3 percent alcohol by volume and drinking three cans of the stuff, called NicoShot, is equivalent to smoking a pack of cigarettes. I think the implications are obvious: smoking makes you skinny and beer makes you fat. So if you add the two together, you get to your ideal weight.
