Corned Beef and Cabbage History

History of Corned Beef and Cabbage for St. Patricks Day

Corned Beef and Cabbage history started when Grover Cleveland took the Presidential Oath of Office in 1885. In a night, when he appalled at the French cuisine that was being served, the Grover Cleveland smelled an aroma coming from the servant’s quarters. He saw his servants dining on corned beef and cabbage, the President requested they swap their food (corned beef and cabbage) for him.  And once he’d tasted their lowly boiled corned beef and cabbage, the President declared that he’d finally found food fit for the Gods. And that is precisely how corned beef and cabbage came to be the “traditional” St. Patrick’s Day meal.  It was a meal modified to invoke memories of Irish cuisine, but suited to the New England and Newfoundland regions where Irish had settled following the potato famine during the nineteenth century.

Based Goldman Sachs posted a gaudy fourth-quarter profit of nearly $5 billion. That number beat the Wall Street analyst consensus estimate by more than $3 a share, thanks to an unusual reduction in employee compensation that handed shareholders a $3 billion after-tax bonus.

But investors weren’t cheering. They were too busy fretting over the big banks’ profit outlook in the face of a growing bonus backlash now seemingly joined by the White House. (more…)

Bagasse Kitchenware Products

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

Bagasse is a fancy name for products made from a renewable resource, like sugarcane. For decades, sugarcane has been used to make sugar but the residual fibers were then discarded. As technology improved and the concept of recycling became widespread, scientists developed durable products from the fibers of sugar cane. It is actually the pulp of sugar cane which is turned into Bagasse products.

Over the years, many different household products have been developed from sugarcane pulp. This includes compostable plates, biodegradable bowls saucers, and even eco friendly containers and bins. (more…)
