買菜日7/14/2012

這是每週在網上訂的菜,之前因為要教書都是麻煩我的好朋友Jin幫忙, 真的很不好意思, 放暑假了, 今天終於可以自己前往, 在指定的地點取菜, 一大早不到9點鐘,已經有人排著長長的隊伍, 很有意思, 在Seattle 這樣涼涼的早晨真好

這週是紅玉米

Besides chlorophyll, anthocyanins are probably the most important group of visible plant pigments. Anthocyanins have anti-inflammatory properties, have been linked to reversing nervous system damage and can also reverse affects of diabetes. Red Sweet Corn contains 350% more antioxidants than common white or yellow corn.
