    Lean Cuisine Recall

    How about a little blue plastic with your chicken?

    Maybe not...

    Lean Cuisine is recalling three of their frozen chicken meals that may have pieces of hard blue plastic in them. You'll want to check the production codes and use-by dates on the Pesto Chicken with Bow-Tie Pasta, Chicken Mediterranean and Chicken Tuscan. The USDA has all the info, as well as a phone number to call if you have questions.

    Good to give up ...

    smoking, that is.

    We're socialized to think that we should never give up, never quit ... and that's all well and good when you're talking about trying to get a job, or achieving a level of accomplishment at a sport. But when it comes to smoking, quitting is good and to be celebrated.

    This Thursday, November 20th, is the Annual Great American Smokeout, sponsored by the American Cancer Society. If you've thought about quitting and need some tips to get started; are already trying to quit and need some extra support; or haven't made the commitment yet and are still looking for a good reason to give up your coffee-break buddy, check out the ACS website for all of the above.
