I'd love to know. Please tell me in your comment and I'll post them in the "friendly dining options" section. Thanks!
I love blue cheese (or bleu cheese, never sure which is the most shi-shi descriptor), don't you? Of course, some of it isn't gluten free -- I deal with this elsewhere on this site -- always check with the cheese maker. But I digress. Cornish Blue cheese bested over 2,000 others to win top place at the World Cheese Awards, according to "News Cornwall." I've been to a cheese festival; they are a ton of fun. Anyone been to the World Cheese Awards?

Yet another entrant into the ongoing debate, yet this USA article from Twitterer "TheAtlanticFOOD" seems to affirm that organic is, indeed, better: at least if one wants less pesticide residue in one's body. But it affirms what I've heard before - there's not a huge difference between organic/non-organic bananas, for instance. An interesting read:
