Season of Giving
CIFST
Food Banks Canada’s HungerCount 2021 report shows that visits to food banks topped 1.3 million, the largest increase since the 2008 recession. This means that every single day of the week, individuals in this country are struggling to provide meals to nourish their families. At the best of times, many families are unable to pay their bills and afford to buy healthy, nutritious food.
This holiday season, CIFST asks that you make a monetary donation to Food Banks Canada, a national charitable organization dedicated to helping Canadians living with food insecurity.

Record crab and lobster prices drive value of N.L. landings past billion-dollar mark
CBC News
Tony Doyle is not one to get excited, but the veteran Bay de Verde fisherman couldn't contain a smile when asked about the 2021 fishing season, which will likely go down in history as the best-ever.
"It was remarkable," Doyle says, referring to the $7.60 per pound — more than double last year's price — Doyle and his son Thomas received for the roughly 16,000 pounds of snow crab they landed with their under-40-foot vessel, Tango Delta, this year.

A blue-green bee from the boreal forest could help food production in northern Quebec
CBC News
A small native bee could help make Quebec's north less dependent on fruit and vegetables flown in at high cost.
Researchers at the Boreal Forest Experimentation and Development Center in Baie-Comeau, QC, are studying whether the Osmia Tersula bee could help grow food in greenhouses in northern Quebec.
If the project succeeds, it could be a game changer for food security in the region, said Mathilde Bouchard, a research associate at the centre.

New study cites higher salt content in plant-based meat alternatives
The Food Institute
A new study begs the question: Are plant-based products like alt-meat any healthier than the real thing? A study published recently in the journal Nutrients found some three-quarters of plant-based products analyzed failed to meet British government salt reduction targets, and, in fact, contained significantly higher salt content compared to 45 meat products, the Independent reported recently.

Researchers develop ice cube that doesn't melt or grow mold
USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture
Researchers at the University of California, Davis, have developed a new type of cooling cube that could revolutionize how food is kept cold and shipped fresh without relying on ice or traditional cooling packs.
These plastic-free, "jelly ice cubes" do not melt, are compostable and anti-microbial, and prevent cross-contamination.
