...“Earth's Bounty” is a restaurant that severs vegetarian westernized food. The food is kept at a low priced to reach out to not only vegans and vegetarian’s, but also a younger generation seeking to try something different. Earth Bounty will be open 24 hours and mostly populated within the suburban area. Earth's Bounty goal is to attract a younger audience from the ages of 16-24, research shows that this age demographic makes up the largest vegetarian/vegan population. Another target audience Earth's Bounty is tying to market to are people that are looking for a healthier food alternative when deciding to dine out because vegetarian food is known for being healthily. By being located in suburban area’s it’ll make eating healthier an option over the abundant amount of fast food restaurants. Both vegans and vegetarians need more local restaurants to go to so they don’t have to worry about food cross contamination. Knowing that vegetarian food is healthier then most non vegetarian dishes, the market for healthy eaters would likely help the success of this brand. Few restaurants offer vegetarian meals but in my personal experience their is a huge market that hasn’t been fully exploited. With Earth’s Bounty being urban, warm and inviting with the use of toned down greens and warm browns, customers will feel welcoming and come in and try food maybe a little out of there comfort zone. A competitor Earth's Bounty is up against is Nuba Restaurant on 207B West Hastings. This restaurant...

...Although mushrooms have at one time been used as a staple food in some parts of Russia and South America, and they have been served as the main dish during mushroom seasons in Africa, they are generally considered only as an ingredient or complement to various dishes-rather than as a daily vegetable. However, mushrooms have been and will be increasing in importance as a source of food because they have a pleasing flavor, fine texture, adequate protein content (Crisan and Sands 1978), and health benefits (Mori 1974). The demand for mushrooms in some industrialized countries has increased threefold during the period 1965-1975 (Delcaire 1978). As people become wealthier, their consumption of mush-rooms increases. In 1977, the total per capita consumption of Agaricus mush-rooms in West Germany was about 12 times that of the world average. It is hoped that in the near future mushrooms can be cultivated widely just as other common vegetables are. 虽然蘑菇在同一时间都被用来作为俄罗斯和南美一些地区的主食，并已在非洲的蘑菇季节期间作为主盘供应，他们通常被认为只能作为一种成分或补充各种菜肴而不是作为日常的蔬菜。然而，蘑菇已被作为食物来源的重要性将越来越大，因为他们有一个可喜的味道，质地细腻，足够的蛋白质含量（克里桑和金沙1978年），以及健康的好处（森，1974）。 1965年至1975年期间，（Delcaire1978），蘑菇在一些工业化国家的需求增长了三倍。随着人们越来越富裕，他们的消费增加的蘑菇房。 1977年，在西德的人均总消费的双孢蘑菇的客房，是世界平均水平的12倍左右。希望在不久的将来蘑菇可以广泛种植其他常见的蔬菜。 WHAT ARE MUSHROOMS? Mushrooms belong to the group of organisms known as filamentous fungi. Be-cause all fungi lack chlorophyll, they cannot get their energy, as green plants do, directly from the sun. They must obtain their nutrients from waste products...

...first we should target the restaurants and the big stores like makro. If we fail to convince them then our focus should be towards the major markets where restaurant owners buy these products for example Main Market Gulberg. The second category is to look across the chain of buyers .the obvious customer group are the restaurant chefs. Here what we should do is that rather to focus them we should focus all of the upper middle and upper class. We should market or sell our product in a bit posh areas where this gentry buys their vegetables from. Because they are the ones who already know about mushrooms. lower class or middle class wouldn’t know much about them certainly, even if they know they won’t be consuming them. The use of mushrooms is very limited in Pakistan because our local dishes don’t support mushrooms in them. So what we could do is that focus on oriental Chinese Thai and American dishes. We could use this idea in our advertisements i.e. fresh oyster mushrooms for your Thai and...

The family contain 73 genera and about 600 species anticardium contains 8 species native to tropical America of which the cashews is by far the most important economical.

Planter Cashews was produced in 1906 which later partner with Kraft Foods they are transported from India as raw nuts which are then coated salted and package in house India is 7486 miles away. Vast movement of food can cause a problem because it allows nations to make error by transporting the movement of food. As a result people can become sick or suffer illness from wrong products which generally results in recalls of food. Then there can also be a benefit of the movement of food because it allows you to experience food from other nations which otherwise we would be able to experience without traveling to that nation and it also can produce great revenue for that nation when you purchase their goods. The benefit of buying locally is awesome because you receive fresh fruits and vegetables grown right in your area there and there are no additives in the fruits and vegetables because they are provided fresh...

...A vegetarian is a person who does not eat meat or fish, and sometimes other animal products. In most cases people become vegetarians because of: moral, religious, or health reasons. Usually people become vegetarians above the age of 20, this is when you realise and take interest what goes into your body and how it can affect you. Some people are born into vegetarianism because of religious reasons or family preferences. In a religious point of view, most people think that it is unfair to take the life of a living thing and eat the flesh of it. In my opinion I think that, everyone should become a vegetarian and not slaughter them for the satisfaction of the taste of their flesh on their mouth. They are loving things too, most animals do not even feel the sunlight and the grass on their bodies until they are taken out of the rows of their animal and are taken to the slaughter house. Over 56 billion farmed animals are killed every year by humans. More than 3,000 animals die every second in slaughterhouses around the world. These shocking figures do not even include fish and other sea creatures whose deaths are so great they are only measured in tonnes. There are many advantages to your life and the world around you if everyone becomes a vegetarian, some of which follow: Becoming a vegetarian means less environmental problems.

...FOOD INFLATION Food inflation is consistent rise in the price level of all agricultural food items. In India we grow plenty of rice and wheat which are also called cereals and there supply and price are not the main reason of food inflation, however the culprit lies in the supply of non-cereals such as fruits, vegetables, milk and pulses (dal) which causes food inflation. Now the million dollar question is if prices of fruits, vegetables and pluses are higher then why the farmers are not concentrating on growing those more in order to earn more profits. Reasons for low non-cereal output are:- Pulses: - Pulses are fundamentally different from cereals since they need more nutrients and energy for synthesizing both proteins and carbohydrates unlike cereals that need to synthesize only carbohydrates. This makes them more vulnerable to the vagaries of weather than either rice or wheat and thus riskier to cultivate. In the major pulses production states such as MP, Rajasthan, Maharashtra and UP cultivation has been pushed to marginal, non-irrigated land, farmers has also been reluctant to invest in fertilizers, nutrients or experiment with high yielding more expensive variety of pulses as a results yields have stagnated, the average annual growth rate of pulses is less than one per cent and this is alarming since the major source of protein in India are pulses and the population growth is about two per cent. In today’s scenario if the production is on the higher side then the...

...Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report Weekly / Vol. 59 / No. 35 September 10, 2010 State-Specific Trends in Fruit and Vegetable Consumption Among Adults — United States, 2000–2009 A diet high in fruits and vegetables can reduce the risk for many leading causes of death (1–3) and can play an important role in weight management (4). Healthy People 2010 objectives for fruits and vegetables include targets of increasing to 75% the proportion of persons aged ≥2 years who consume two or more servings of fruit daily and to 50% those who consume three or more servings of vegetables daily.* To assess states’ progress over the past decade in meeting these targets among adults and to provide an update of the 2005 subgroup estimates (5), CDC analyzed data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). This report describes the results of that analysis, which indicated that, in 2009, an estimated 32.5% of adults consumed fruit two or more times per day and 26.3% consumed vegetables three or more times per day, far short of the national targets. Overall, the proportion of adults who met the fruit target declined slightly, but significantly, from 34.4% in 2000 to 32.5% in 2009; no significant change was observed in meeting the vegetable target. No state met either target, and substantial variability occurred among states. Only one state had statistically significant increases in the percentages of adults meeting each target. These findings underscore the need for interventions...

...Expansion Ideas As upcoming entrepreneurs we discussed many ideas that will be beneficial to the owners. Many consumers are being health conscience about what foods they should consume, the trend towards organic fruits and vegetables is increasing. We see an opportunity to expand this existent business to have a mobile produce truck a way to get fresh food into kitchens. The mobile store is simply a truck or van that will be converted to have a stand/showcase on the adjacent side of the truck/van, the truck will carry fresh produce and other healthy staples like grain, beans and dairy products that will then be displayed on the stand . The truck will travel to neighboring Old nursing Homes and Retirement Homes on certain days and hours which will be serviced by one to two employees. The prices will be reasonable and affordable to the clients . Many of the existent clients and potential clients will appreciate this unique service that brings the market to their homes. Clients can see, feel, and smell the fruits and vegetables they buy without traveling any distance which is a strategic idea for seniors that are mobility impaired. If the mobile truck expansion plan is too costly we can use another potential alternative which is simply setting up a Mini Market in the retirement home. The mini market will change from location to location on different days of the week so will have a set weekly schedule of the days and times that the Mini market will be open for business. The...

...300 SECRETS 1. A life is a terrible thing to waste. So easy to beat yourself up over mistakes you've made. So many amongst us live in the past rather than loving the present and building a brilliant future. First of all, no one tries to fail or mess things up. Every one of us wakes up in the morning, walks out into the world and does the best we can do based on what we know and the skills we have. But even more importantly, every so-called "mistake' is actually a rich source of learning. An opportunity to build more awareness and understanding and gain precious experience. Just maybe what we could call failures are actually growth lessons in wolf's clothing. And just maybe the person who experiences the most, wins. 2. A world-class company puts systems in place to ensure consistency of results. If you want to get something done and if you want to see consistent results, build a system around it. Celebrate the previous days wins and then rededicate to work for the mission. Systems‛ thinking builds structures into your life so that your best practices actually get integrated into your life. Systems allow you to live in a proactive rather than in a reactive way. And having a bunch of systems in place to keep you at your best doesn't mean that your life will be overly structured and full of stress Because nothing deprives a human being of happiness as much as seeing a life being wasted. 3. ABC. Always Be Connecting with everybody, everything around you. The best leaders build strong...

The youngest of three; my sister a model, my brother a star of tomorrow don’t tell me my future is anything less. I struggle with my weight; my mom trades my burgers for grapes.
