Beyond the Weight #150: What’s in a Brand Name?

Join us as we chat about olive oil, fish, cheese, and champagne! Sound delicious? It is . . . IF you actually taste the real thing; the problem is, according to our latest read, Real Food, Fake Food by Larry Olmsted, most of us are enjoying a knock-off version of these tasty foods. We geek out about the production of actual authentic parmesan cheese and freak out about the misleading labels on so many of the foods in our cupboards. Finally, we discuss Sandy’s recent brush with pseudo-fame as a celebrity lookalike. Do you think Sandy looks like Jamie Lee Curtis?
