Issue: January 14, 2010

Hi everybody,
Hungry? Ever wonder where your food has been? It’s time to meet your meat and greet your greens. In this week’s cover story, our intrepid intern, Clint Demeritt, follows his burger from hoof to bun. Special projects editor Kat Kerlin writes about growing vegetables in cold weather. Our restaurant reviewer, Grant Nejedlo, writes up his favorite local meals that you can buy with less than an hour’s work at minimum wage. He also visits a new restaurant whose balls you will love to hold. As always, thanks for reading our newspaper.
If it weren’t for you, we’d starve for attention.
Brad Bynum,
RN&R Arts Editor
