Does the label "natural" mean anything to you when you see it plastered on a package of food?

There was quite a dust-up in the cereal aisle over this question last week. A grocer in Portsmouth, RI pulled Kashi cereal from his shelves and posted a sign explaining why:

You might be wondering where your favorite Kashi cereals have gone. It has recently come to our attention that 100% of the soy used in Kashi products is genetically modified, and that when the USDA tested the grains used there were found to be pesticides that are known carcinogens and hormone disruptors.

Someone posted a photo of that sign and it went viral -- which triggered an anti-Kashi backlash online. People were shocked because Kashi cereals have that "natural" health food halo. Was this a case of false advertising? Or is this just another case of food labeling being utterly meaningless?

If you're reading this, I'm hoping you're either a dad or a child with excellent reading comprehension skills capable of frying eggs. Are you looking for ideas for preparing Mom breakfast in bed for Mother's Day? Well, you came to the right place. That kind of thinking will earn you extra points in your household -- especially you, Dad.

And if this is a mom, what the heck. Print this out and just say: "On Mother's Day, I shall expect breakfast in bed at 9:30 a.m. That is all."

It's actually pretty easy. A few key details are all you need to make this little gesture mean everything to the well-deserving mom in your life.

You guys. I just went on a donut-tasting tour this weekend. My friend Nicole Taylor has been leading these donut tours in different neighborhoods throughout the city and I finally joined her for a tour through Bed Stuy. It was donutastic. It was donutacular. It was a donustravaganza.

Naturally I took pictures of all the donuts -- have a look!

NOT Dunkin' Donuts' pork donutIt's not every day that I'm envious of the Chinese, but I just learned that they're about to get a most delectable treat: PORK DONUTS. Oh the lard-liscious joy! Dunkin' Donuts is planning to take over China using their secret weapon, donuts topped with shredded pork.

Oh what, that sounds gross to you? Please, aren't we the country that invented chicken and waffles? What's the difference? Who is with me on the pork donuts? I said, WHO IS WITH ME HERE ON THE PORK DONUTS? I'll tell you who is: Basketball star LeBron James.

Tell us more about that cake, PaulaWouldn't y'all like to sit down for brunch with Paula Deen, her family, and Oprah Winfrey? Well you can -- that is, vicariously. On her new show, Oprah's Next Chapter, O visited Paula's home for a little breakfast and a big family brunch to talk about Paula's personal journey.

This was Paula's turn to tell her story her way. And obviously that meant no questions about her scandalous diabetes drug endorsement deal or the sexual harassment lawsuit hanging over her head! But Paula did give us some hints about why she may have made that deal. And, if course, she gave us the chance to drool over some heavenly-looking Southern food!

Good news, everyone! Angelina Jolie was recently seen within close proximity to food. She and Brad Pitt were photographed pulling up to a McDonald's drive-through. Brad takes the golden arches bags from the window ... passes them to Angelina's waiting hands ... BUT DID SHE EAT ANY OF IT??? Or is it just for the kids?

Okay, if you ask me, it's really hard to tell who is in that SUV in the photos. It could be my sister and brother-in-law, for all we know. But let's play along anyway, shall we? It's more fun that way. Anyone dying to find out what's in that bag?

Hey everybodeeee, let's hear it for Andy Wrobel for winning the Guinness World Record for tallest stack of pancakes! Andy managed to stack 60 pancakes on top of each other, achieving a stack measuring 2.49 feet high. And just in time to celebrate National Pancake Day!

It took loads of practice, 50 hours, and about a quarter ton of buckwheat flour, not to mention a few previous failed attempts, to win the big record this year. And goodness knows Wrobel must get plenty of practice at his job making pancakes at Pancake Parlour in Melbourne, Australia. But there's just one thing about this story I can't help wondering.
