02/27 FOOD EXPERT DR. DAVID FRIEDMAN, FOOD SANITY
HEALTH EXPERT DR. DAVID FRIEDMAN TALKS ABOUT HIS NEW BOOK, FOOD SANITY: HOW TO EAT IN A WORLD OF FADS AND FICTION
As Lifetime television’s morning show health expert and syndicated radio host, Dr. David Friedman has spent the last 15 years interviewing hundreds of health advocates, scientists, doctors and New York Times bestselling authors. His goal has always been to share cutting edge information that helps his audience reach optimal health. Unfortunately, each new guest contradicted the last and created more confusion than clarity. From proponents of a vegan, paleo, Mediterranean Diet to a gluten-free and low carb diet, the opinions are as different as night and day.
After becoming frustrated with so much biased (often paid for) and conflicting research, Dr. Friedman created a common science meets common sense approach that answers the big question: “What the heck are we supposed to eat?!”

LAWRENCE WU - FOUNDER AND CREATOR OF WUJU HOT SAUCE
FOR 15% OFF USE PROMO CODE WUJU15 AT WUJUHOTSAUCE.COM
WUJU Hot Sauce is a modern-day success story. Fresh out of college, Lawrence Wu created a hot sauce that he believed could be the next iconic condiment. It was his goal to create not just a spicy hot sauce, but a delicious blend of exotic spices that can add flavor to every meal from sunrise to sunset. After perfecting his recipe, Wu set out on the internet to build his brand. Engaging thousands of Reddit users to try his delicious recipe and give him honest feedback, Wu launched WUJU out into the world to truly phenomenal acclaim. In 2015, Wu ran a wildly successful Kickstarter campaign, which fueled WUJU’s early days. Today WUJU Hot Sauce is available in some of the country’s largest chains across the country.
WUJU Hot Sauce is a thai-inspired hot sauce made with 16 all-natural ingredients including spices and flavors like agave nectar, mango, curry, and more. Hot sauces have traditionally been red and vinegary but WUJU brings you something different and new – a unique blend of agave, mustard and Thai-inspired exotic flavors. All natural WUJU is the perfect blend of flavor, because this mustard-based hot sauce mixes the sweetness of mango and agave nectar with the spiciness of habanero peppers. This unique and tasty flavor profile, paired with its incredible versatility makes WUJU hot sauce the perfect addition to any dish.
WUJU Hot Sauce is available for purchase in select Whole Foods, Safeway, Kroger, Albertsons, Central Market and in natural food stores nationwide as well as online on Amazon and wujuhotsauce.com. WUJU Hot Sauce is available in 5 oz. bottles in original and extra hot and can be purchased in a single bottle or packages of 6 or 12. Suggested retail for one 5oz bottle is $4.99.
WUJU Hot Sauce’s original logo was inspired by a photo of Lawrence’s friend Cody looking out into the sunset. Wu lost Cody to cancer several years back, but his positive outlook and bravery in the face of the horrible disease remain core inspirations for Wu in his own life and business. WUJU Hot Sauce’s new packaging design (launched in December 2017) fully integrates Cody’s sunset into the logo and package design and also includes all the labeling requirements to support mass distribution.
In remembrance of Lawrence’s dear friend Cody who lost his life after a fierce battle with cancer and for his mother who is currently battling cancer WUJU Hot Sauce helps fund, support and provide hot sauce for Cook for Your Life’s Hope Lodge Program cooking classes and dinners created for people touched by cancer.
WUJU Hot Sauce donates a portion of profits from each bottle to support cancer patients and their families. Learn more at wujuhotsauce.com.
NANCY BRYAN, PH.D. - AUTHOR, THIN IS A STATE OF MIND
CAN ANXIETY REALLY MAKE YOU FAT?
Believe it or not, Yes! says Nancy Bryan, author of Thin is a State of Mind, The No-Stress Weight Loss Guide, who has struggled with this herself, and come out on the other side.
As if there weren’t enough to worry about when it comes to battling anxiety, now as Nancy points out, add weight gain to the list of side effects.
HERE’S WHERE NANCY CAN HELP US WITH:
She explains the science behind how anxiety can make you fat and how with this knowledge we can combat it by making better choices. Like any chronic feelings of stress, anxiety triggers the body’s stress response, which in turn, our bodies release large amount of hormones responsible for fat formation. Elevated levels of these hormones can increase blood-sugar levels, contribute to insulin resistance and direct body fat to the abdominal region.
Also, we tend to overeat when feeling stressed, where food becomes addictive. With compulsive or addictive eating, food functions not as nourishment but as a narcotic, which gives an artificial feeling of calm and serves to keep unwelcome thoughts out of awareness.
THE GOOD NEWS IS, AS NANCY HAS EXPERIENCED, WE CAN DO SOMETHING TO COMBAT ADDICTIVE EATING INCLUDING:
If we can remove tension, our bodies respond quickly.

SPECIALIZING IN SOUTHWESTERN CUISINE & TEX-MEX COOKING TEACHER & AUTHOR JANE BUTEL TALKS ABOUT HER BOOK: CHILI MADNESS
CHILI MADNESS: A PASSIONATE COOKBOOK
Beloved chili. Passionate chili. Hot chili . . . and not just because of the chiles. Chili, the star of cook-offs, the obsession of societies, and the subject of endless debate over its proper preparation. Has there ever been a better time to be a chili head? A well-stocked supermarket today carries a variety of fresh and dried chiles, fresh cilantro, myriad dried and canned beans, chipotle powder, and all the makings for sides and salsas, from tortillas in the refrigerator case to organic avocados. Jane Butel's Chili Madness has been praised as "an elegant celebration" (Travel + Leisure) that "chile lovers will love" (New York Post), it's the spicy bestseller with over 330,000 copies in print. Extensively revised, updated, and expanded, the book will fire up a whole new generation of chili fanatics. Of the 160-plus recipes, more than 130 are brand-new. Here are classics, including Reno Red and Navajo Green and Buzzard’s Breath Chili, as well as newfangled bowls like Moroccan Chili and White Lobster Chili. To accompany the main event are savory breads (Bacon Crumble Cornbread); tempting sidekicks (Hot ’n’ Spicy Okra, Red Hot Sweet Potato Lace); fire-taming salads (Crispy Cilantro Coleslaw); and margaritas, of course. (Six kinds!) Luscious desserts such as Double Chocolate Farmer’s Cakes provide the perfect sweet ending, while chili leftovers are reinvented in crowd-pleasers like Texas-Style Burritos.

We hope you’ll book an interview with Lindsay on this uniquely-interesting topic that affects so many of your audience.
SOMMELIER NICOLE NEILSEN JOINS US TO CHAT RUTH’S CHRIS HAPPY HOUR AND UPCOMING EVENTS
ABOUT RUTH’S CHRIS STEAKHOUSE:
Ruth's Chris Steak House is a chain of 136 steakhouses across the United States and in several international locations. The restaurant is regarded as an upscale fine dining establishment, marking a gradual elevation in its status since its founding in the 1960s. Ruth's Chris is currently the largest luxury steak company in number of locations, operating income, and overall profit, larger than The Palm and Morton's.
MENU
The restaurant's signature is serving USDA prime steaks that are seared at 1800° Fahrenheit (982.2 °C) and served on ceramic plates heated to 500° Fahrenheit (260.0 °C). Half an ounce (1 Tbsp) of butter is added just before the plates leave the kitchen in order to create the signature 'sizzle'. Ruth Fertel firmly believed that the success of her steaks was due as much to the sound and smell of the 'sizzle' as well as the taste. "You hear that sizzle, and you think, 'I wonder if that's my steak'", she commented in an interview shortly before her death.
In addition to steaks, the restaurant also serves entrees of chicken, lamb, fish, shrimp and lobster.
Portions generally are large enough to serve two or more diners. Family style side dishes include au gratin potatoes, topped with a bechamel sauce and Cheddar cheese. Some recipes, such as the BBQ shrimp, New Orleans style creamed spinach or the sweet potato casserole, are traditional 19th century Louisiana recipes that originate with Ruth Fertel's family, particularly her great-uncle Martin, a Louisiana Delta farmer from a French-Alsatian family. Some of these recipes have been made publicly available by the family and by the company.
Also available are dessert selections, with the restaurant's signature creme brulee being a staple item throughout the chain.
In 2009, Ruth's Chris introduced their "Ruth's Classics" menu of prix fixe meals where guests choose a three-course meal; starter, entree and side, and dessert. This menu is updated seasonally every three months.
BEVERAGES
The award-winning wine list includes over 200 wines, primarily from leading Californian vineyards such as Mondavi, Beringer and Stag's Leap. 25 or more wines are available by the glass, depending on location.
The seasonal vintage-inspired cocktail selection, introduced in 2011 by Beverage Director Helen Mackey, includes both classic and contemporary hand-crafted cocktails.

02/14 LARRY LIPSON, AFFORDABLE WINE REPORT, COOKBOOK AUTHOR AND FOOD BLOGGER CHRISTINA LANE - DESSERT FOR TWO
LARRY LIPSON - THE AFFORDABLE WINE REPORT
For fifty years Larry Lipson was the food critic for the Los Angeles Daily News and now reports from Florida weekly with his thoughts and favorite picks for Food & Wine. His lovely Wife Lillian is also on hand at the Lipson Institute for advanced wine studies.
COOKBOOK AUTHOR & FOOD BLOGGER CHRISTINA LANE TAKES WELL-LOVED DESSERTS AND SCALES THEM DOWN TO MAKE DESSERT FOR TWO
PERFECT FOR YOUR ROMANTIC VALENTINE'S DAY DINNER!
DESSERT FOR TWO: SMALL BATCH COOKIES, BROWNIES, PIES, AND CAKES
Who doesn't love towering three-layer cakes with mounds of fluffy buttercream? Who can resist four dozen cookies fresh from the oven? Wouldn't you love to stick your spoon into a big bowl of banana pudding? But what about the leftovers? Dessert recipes typically serve eight to ten people. Finding the willpower to resist extra slices of cake can be difficult; the battle between leftover cookies and a healthy breakfast is over before it starts. Until now.
Dessert for Two takes well-loved desserts and scales them down to make only two servings. Cakes are baked in small pans and ramekins. Pies are baked in small pie pans or muffin cups. Cookie recipes are scaled down to make 1 dozen or fewer. Your favorite bars―brownies, blondies, and marshmallow–rice cereal treats―are baked in a loaf pan, which easily serves two when cut across the middle.
Newly married couples and empty-nesters will be particularly enthralled with this miniature dessert guide. To everyone who lives alone: now you can have your own personal-sized cake and eat it, too.
