Microplastics found in 90 percent of table salt: potential health impacts? In partnership with the National Geographic Society. Microplastics were found in sea salt several years ago. But how extensively plastic bits are spread throughout the most commonly used seasoning remained unclear. Now, new research shows microplastics in 90 percent of the table salt brands sampled worldwide. Of 39 salt brands tested, 36 had microplastics in them, according to a new analysis by researchers in South Korea and Greenpeace East Asia. “The findings suggest that human ingestion of microplastics via marine products is strongly related to emissions in a given region,” said Seung-Kyu Kim, a marine science professor at Incheon National University in South Korea. National Geographic has also teamed up with Wattpad to raise awareness of the global plastic issue through a creative storytelling challenge. Salt samples from 21 countries in Europe, North and South America, Africa, and Asia were analyzed. The new study is the fifth on salt published in recent years.

Many of us do not want beef, sausage, or chicken taste-alikes yet fine ones appear in From the Earth. Actually, the food may appear similar in shape and texture, but it has its own flavor--which is very pleasing to those that do not care for meat or fish, or who simply prefer the delicious Chinese tastes and aromas applied to vegetables, grains, or beans. As a vegetarian who has delved quite deeply into Chinese vegetarian cuisine and evaluated too many bad and few truly good cookbooks on this subject, I can appreciate the excellence of this intelligent work from one of our most respected Chinese food authorities. Lo admits to not being a vegetarian.
