The Belt Cookie Table Cookbook

Bonnie Tawse

A compendium of traditional midwestern cookies “along with the poignant and heartwarming stories behind each recipe” (Mary Bilyeu, Toledo Blade).  The Belt Cookie Table Cookbook celebrates the tradition of the cookie table with forty-one classic recipes from authentic Mahoning Valley cookie tables and cooks. What’s a cookie table? Funny you should ask! The cookie table is a tradition beloved by residents of Youngstown, Pittsburgh, and parts in between. It has its roots in a time when wedding cakes were far too dear for newly arrived immigrants to purchase. Instead, family and friends showed their love for a bride and groom by baking from scratch hundreds (sometimes thousands) of cookies and other small sweet treats to be shared at the reception. The Belt Cookie Table Cookbook is an international baking guide, including cookies from different cultures, cookies with different textures, spices, shapes, and backstories. Simple cookies, ridiculously indulgent cookies, experimental cookies―they’re all here. And most of all it shares the tradition of the cookie table, a heartfelt way of building community that has endured through generations.   In the tradition of the community cookbook, The Belt Cookie Table Cookbook is a must for any kitchen large or small, and a great gift for bakers and home cooks.

Fruit Diet - The Benefits of...

Maria Garrets

A fruit diet, also known as a fruitarian diet, primarily consists of consuming raw fruits and may also include nuts, seeds, and some vegetables. This diet emphasizes the consumption of raw fruits, varying in strictness but generally focusing on fruits while excluding or limiting other food groups such as grains, meat, and dairy. Some variations of the diet allow for the consumption of nuts, seeds, and certain vegetables. 
  
One of the main benefits of a fruit diet is the high nutrient intake. Fruits are rich in essential vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and dietary fiber. Additionally, fruits are generally low in calories and high in fiber, which can aid in weight management. The high water content in many fruits contributes to better hydration, and the fiber promotes healthy digestion and regular bowel movements. 
  
However, there are potential risks associated with a fruit diet. Relying solely on fruits can lead to deficiencies in protein, fats, vitamin B12, iron, calcium, and other essential nutrients. The high sugar content in fruits, though natural, can be problematic for individuals with blood sugar management issues. The acids and sugars in fruits can also contribute to dental erosion and cavities. A restrictive diet may lead to boredom and difficulty in maintaining the diet long-term.
