This week I managed to scrump a particularly perfect wind-fallen apple, and share it with my daughters. The first juicy crunch transported me back to my childhood garden where my swing and rope ladder swung in the shade of the apple trees. My mum and I would feast on fresh apples every day during apple-season, taking for granted the intense lemon-apple-sherbet taste of a newly picked fruit. At the end of the summer we would visit a house on the edge of our town where a lady sold tiny red Beauty of Bath apples from her garden; the taste was sublime, but the gift of each fruit was the red flesh under the skin, fading to the delicate pink of apple blossom; each bite revealing a new palette of colour.

However, there has been recent news of a bona fide food poisoning outbreak. Four victims have been sickened with suspected botulism after ingesting hot dog chili sauce thought to contain the toxin. 10-ounce cans of Castleberry’s, Austex and Kroger brands of hot dog chili sauce with “best by” dates from April 30, 2009, through May 22, 2009 are suspected to be the ones affected, according to the Food and Drug Administration.

An early alcoholic drink, rum has been around since ancient times. Nothing if not old, it is practically forced to walk with a (sugar) cane. Though it wasn’t first distilled in plantations until the 17th century, rum is believed to have existed thousands of years prior in the form of brum, a drink made by the Malay people. In the 14th century, Marco Polo (the explorer, not the swimming pool game) wrote about a wine made of sugar, giving further credence to the belief that rum was around before the 1600’s.
