The Food Holidays of October 2013


In the music industry every is worried about getting their release out in the fourth quarter because that is when the heavyweights usually come out to play. Christmas, Hanukkah and every other holiday that requires gift giving usually takes place in the 4th quarter of the year and with that come a lot of added sales. In the food industry things are no different. True everyone wants to watch their weight so they can stay in shape for next years heat wave, but in the end we almost all succumb to the greatest of sweets & treats that can be found just around every corner this time of year.  Last year around October brought about some major changes in our business, all for the better and I wish to simply say thank you to all of our supporters for coming out to our events, following the site and letting us know how we can help make your live better and our site even more influential towards eating right and living a more fulfilling life.
