Food and diet. Earlier dinner may lower risk of some cancers, study says. "The mechanisms are not clear," said Dr. Manolis Kogevinas, a research professor at the Barcelona Institute for Global Health in Spain and lead author of a new study on the topic.

"What we know from experimental studies is that we are conditioned to function in different parts of the day. We -- not only humans but all living organisms -- have developed throughout time functioning differently in day and night. " The study, published Tuesday in the International Journal of Cancer, followed 621 people who had prostate cancer and 1,205 who had breast cancer, as well as 872 male and 1,321 female patients without cancer, known as a control group, chosen randomly from primary health centers throughout Spain.

The authors considered each person's lifestyle and chronotype, or preference for being an early bird or a night owl, interviewing them about when they ate meals and their sleeping habits. Though 7% of the subjects also had after-supper snacks, the study focused on full meals, Kogevinas said.

Manila (CNN Philippines Life) — Filipinos may know Cavite for its history — but with its history is a lot of food. The province south of Manila is considered the cradle of Philippine independence. It has taken remnants of the Spanish colonization — from the goods traded during the galleon trade to the use of the pidgin Spanish language Chabacano — and spun these into its own.

From the coastal city-appropriate pancit pusit to the Mexican-inspired pipian, Cavite offers a culinary scene that may have been sidelined due to its its proximity to the capital. A food crawl organized by San Miguel Pure Foods Culinary Center (SMPFCC) aims to spotlight just that. “The tour’s stops were carefully chosen to show that Cavite’s culinary scene has so much more to offer other than Bacoor’s famed Halo-Halo and Carmona’s classic Binalot,” says SMPFCC Culinary Services Manager Llena Tan-Arcenas.

“We hope that it will make everyone appreciate and draw inspiration from the rich culinary heritage of Cavite.” 11 eat-all-you-can buffets for less than 500 pesos. Manila (CNN Philippines Life) — Every once in a while, we get the urge to eat as much as our stomach can accommodate for many reasons. The most efficient and effective way to satisfy this urge is to gather a group of people and head to the nearest all-you-can-eat buffet to enjoy an endless feast that would allow you to achieve your ideal level of busog.

But where exactly did this all-you-can-eat buffet originate? In the Philippines, it seems as though it could have started in boodle fights — an excessive amount of food stacked on banana leaves usually done by the military — or in barrio fiestas, where classic Pinoy food doesn’t seem to be a scarcity. Historically, though, it was actually the Swedes who formalized this practice. In 18th century Sweden, they would have an unlimited pre-dinner meal called “smörgåsbord,” featuring a mix of food — from fish and eggs to fruits and vegetables — that was served for guests.

Hong Kong’s beloved Japanese-Mexican food is now in Manila. Manila (CNN Philippines Life) — “I was talking to someone about how, when Filipinos travel to a different country, they respect what you’re doing [in your restaurant] but when they’re here it’s different,” says chef Erik Idos, executive chef and owner of the recently opened Chino in One Bonifacio High Street in Taguig, Metro Manila. While this might not be the case for all his diners, he does make a valid point. After all, he’s worked his way up from kitchens in LA, New York, and Hong Kong, which probably house some of the most critical diners in the world. Who am I to disagree? Idos was born and raised in LA to Filipino parents together with his extended family. “I was always watching my aunts and my grandparents cook Filipino food,” he shares. After a decade working under Nobu Matsuhisa, he decided to leave so he could cook for himself. Goat barbacoa taco with arbol miso and sesame. Chino is the latest iteration of Idos’ career.

“That’s how I incorporated Japanese food. Thecopacabana. 72 Hours in Kochi, your Kerala Backwaters Holiday - danteharker. Culinary Food Trends | Campbell Soup Company.

These innovative products are made with plants but "bleed" just like real meat with the help of beet juice. In 2017, companies such as Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods expanded their presence in the market, partnering with restaurants and bringing their innovative plant protein to the grocery market.

The reason for this sudden surge in burgers made from vegetables? "It tastes good," said Harris. "It hasn't in the past.
