The Dealio: SHELVES EMPTY AS USDA SENDS FOOD TO FOREIGN COUNTRIES
Here is the info on pork consumption per capita: pork.
The USDA (and Tom Vilsack) just announced a deal that sends American pork to INDIA. Does this make sense? Do you believe it? Think about that for a moment. At a time when you can’t find lunchmeat on the grocery shelves, American pork is being sent to a country with many Hindus who don’t generally consume pork! Or, are they a go-between for another country? Elizabeth has a possible explanation and you’re not gonna like it.

About the show: Food And Travel Nation with Elizabeth Dougherty is the fusion of food and travel. This fresh, compelling nationally-syndicated weekend program includes information for homesteading, traveling, gardening, taste tests, and in a twist, listeners hear what restaurant servers say about customers.
I taught cooking classes, and served as a personal chef for individuals and small parties. I consulted for restaurants and other food service organizations in menu development as well as cost saving measures. As a freelance writer, I have written hundreds of articles for many different publications. I created and developed the popular “Food and Travel Nation” page on Facebook.
In 2010, I created a light-hearted, entertaining, informative radio program, “Food And Travel Nation”. It’s a mix of everything FOOD, including guest interviews, recipes and food/restaurant related features.
With previous memberships in the International Association of Culinary Professionals, the James Beard Foundation and National Restaurant Association, I have tried to keep abreast of the current and ever-changing trends in the culinary world.
