An early morning serving of food news, with no preservatives or additives.

The Newest Trend in wine has hit the Valley in the form of a 5 gallon keg. That's right folks, a keg o' wine. Valley favorite Postino has started serving wine on tap at both the Arcadia and Central locations. Read the full story here.

Things just keep getting stranger and stranger. The Chessington World of Adventures theme park just outside of London has plans to test out a new super appetizing snack this week---flavored crickets and chocolate ant wafer biscuits (biscuit = cookie). The new goodies will be available in their new zone, Wild Asia, which has replaced the beloved Beanoland (???). BBC has the scoop.

After Valentine's Day, Chinese New Year, beer festivals and all the other events of the past week, everyone could probably stand to consume something a little heathier than a box of chocolates washed down with beer. Try this yummy and super simple Banana Smoothie.
