Aww, they have tiny economic agreements, ain't that cute?
Chow down.
Writing this article left me starving. To the pans!
You don't need an ID for this bar.
Feasting on seaweeds is good for your brain -- in fact, it may have been crucial.

The world grows enough food. The challenge lies in controlling waste and protein distribution.
Thanks brain...
That's 500,000 extra years of healthy life and more than AUD 3 billion in costs for Australia's current population.
Something as simple as opening a jar goes a long way with anyone. Even other species.
Minding when you eat might be just as important as what, when you're trying to slim down.

Where's my fork?
The improvement is simply astonishing.
Best enjoyed with a stone fork from a bark plate.

This is a pragmatic take to gusto, one that both foodies and the 'profane' will enjoy.
If you want to grow some food from scratch... you need Finnish researchers.
Are we having spaghetti? OK, then I'd like some spring rolls to go with that.
This is a berry exciting device.
Pass me some of that fat.
Game theory doesn't apply to farming like it does to other areas of industry.
Don't kid yourself anymore. You knew all along it was BS but you still ate that toast.
Finally!
To be fair, students will do insane things for food.
Keeping food inside our bellies instead of the bin.
Leftover food from the Olympic Village in Rio is being prepared by a group of international chefs and served to the poor.
By limiting the growth of their roots, grassy crops conserve soil water during drought.
Food grown on Mars has been officially declared edible.
They're using the people we like to sell us things that aren't good for us.
The unlikely ally is silk.
Humans are throwing away an insane quantity of food, both in the developed and in developing countries. While in the latter case this can be attributed to economic and technological constrains, the former is primarily consumer-driven. And the sum of individual choices adds up to major impacts on a global scale, a new study finds.
Takeout, instant noodles and cheap beer -- the only known organisms able to survive solely on these three items are university students. A new study examined undergraduates' dietary habits to see what powers their resilience to low-quality food, and if this trait can be grafted into human beings.
Food packaging does influence the amount of calories consumed, a new study found. By showing portion sizes much larger than recommended, the pictures on various product's packaging could make it difficult to eat healthy. Extras such as toppings or frosting on cakes are also usually not taken into account on nutritional labels, exacerbating the problem.
Prairie dogs aren't as innocent as they look. Researchers have documented as the animals slaughter ground squirrels for control over food. This is the first time this sort of behaviour was documented among omnivores.
The sounds you make while chewing have a significant effect on the amount of food you eat, a new study has found. The results suggest that people are likely to consume less if they can hear themselves eating.
Spiders' diets aren't limited to juicy insect bits. They spice up their menus with vegetarian courses too, zoologists from the US and UK have found.
More than half of American's calories come from ultra-processed foods, a new study finds. The data also indicates close to 90% of total added sugar intake can be traced back to these foodstuffs.
A new paper suggests that we've been overlooking how two key human responses to climate -- the total area farmed and the number of crops planted -- will impact food production in the future.
The voracious reputation of sharks might soon change as marine biologists uncover that most coral reef sharks eat pray smaller than a cheeseburger.
University of Montreal Hospital Research Centre (CRCHUM) scientists have identified a new enzyme that could protect the body from toxic levels of intra-cell sugar. When there is too much sugar in the body it gets processed to glycerol-3-phosphate, a buildup of which can damage internal organs. The team behind the study proved that G3PP is able to extract excess sugar from cells.
Throughout our hunter-forager days, humans have developed a subconscious urge to over-eat and became less and less psychologically equipped to avoid obesity, especially during the winter months, a University of Exeter study recently found.
One of the most exciting gadgets we've seen at CES this year comes from a French startup called DietSensor, which collaborated with an Israeli company called Consumer Physics. Their latest product called SCiO is a pocket-sized device that uses near-infrared spectroscopy to tell you how many carbs or calories are found inside your food.
Mathematics is not about equations, numbers, computation or algorithms: It is about Understanding! There are many ways to understand it – the one that this post is based on is real life visualization. The Pringle shape is what is known in mathematics / calculus as a hyperbolic paraboloid. Why are Pringles a hyperbolic paraboloid? The […]
A massive, 200 million yuan (over $31 million) commercial animal cloning facility will be built in the Tianjin Economic-Technological Development Area with the sole purpose of cloning China's cattle.
Agriculture is a big driver of climate change, with the meat industry standing out among the rest as a source of CO2 emissions and environmental damage; lowering demand for meat or ensuring that farms have as little environmental impact is possible, but costly. Would you be willing to eat less, if it was for the good of the planet? Pay more for your meat? A new study suggests that the idea isn't as controversial as you may believe on first glance.
Universal diets don’t work because “healthy food” varies from person to person, a new study has found. Sadly, only a fraction of all people truly eat healthily these days – we all have our own struggles with food, either because we eat too much, or we eat things that are bad for us, or we don’t […]
We all know that men like to impress the fairer members of our species, and this permeates into almost everything we do: we want to drive the shiniest car on the block, crack the funniest jokes 24/7 and write for ZMEScience so we can impress the ladies at parties. In essence, no matter how unlikely it is to actually impress, if a man has a choice between doing something and doing that something over the top so he can show off to women, you can bet your right arm he's gonna do the latter.
