Henry Reist, the ‘popcorn man,’ fluently described the farmers especially in Pennsylva nia and Ohio who have added the growing popcorn seed, to the seeds they have been planting traditionally to fill out the hill use of their fields. Many varieties are available. The shape is a de sirable mushroom one. Much moisture in the seed to make a good popcorn. Saudi Arabia is a good market overseas. Reist passed a half dozen bowls around for the ladies to taste. Some kinds had sugar added. One bowl was a lovely pink. A new variety pops in three minutes in the microwave.

Food edit ors from Better Homes and Gar dens, Southern Living, Parents, Good Housekeeping and other key publications were intro duced to the new beef value cuts and discussed other new prod ucts and beef industry trends at a seminar hosted by the beef in dustry’s R & D Ranch. The seminar was conducted April 8-9 in Queenstown, Md. The effort was a project of Food Communications, funded by beef producers through their sl-per-head checkoff and coor dinated for the Cattlemen’s Beef Board (CBB) and state beef councils by the National Cattle men’s Beef Association (NCBA). A total of 11 editors/writers, representing a circulation of more than 20.6 million, partici pated in this event. It was the first news media group to be given hands-on experience cook ing and tasting dishes using beef value cuts, said Bob Rolston, cattle buyer from Englewood, Colo, and chairman of the CBB/NCBA Public Relations Subcommittee. The editors also took part in making their own cheeseburger fries. Editors at the seminar were also given a ranch tour of the University of Maryland’s Beef Cattle Research and Education Ranch. “We wanted to educate these influential editors on the value of beef value cuts, how they’re different, and how they’re cut and cooked,” said Rolston. “The idea is for them to go back out IHEATMOR OUTDOOR WOOD FURNACES c*»: n Wc C4««i 888-763-8617 800-743-5883 stainless Meel Jamestown, NY Staunton, VA h■ r For Value-Added Sales or for Personal Use 1 i Process meat easily and affordably with Chop- i ■ Rite Two Meat Processors.

[us a] Lancaster Farming, Saturday, May 11,2002-815 and communicate their experi ences with consumers who will help boost the demand for beef.” The beef industry created beef value cuts using information from its Muscle Profiling study. As a result of the study, funded through the checkoff program, the industry has introduced a new product line of moderately priced cuts from the underuti lized chuck and round. The new cuts help meat processors, man ufacturers, retailers, foodservice operators and cattle producers improve overall profitability while supplying more options to the consumer. “This was another important step in the process of introduc ing the new beef value cuts to consumers. The food editors play a major role in commu nicating beef information to con sumers,” said Carl Blackwell, NCBA’s executive director of new product development and culinary initiatives. “This initia tive creates products that are a great fit for today’s lifestyles - which is why the beef value cuts initiative was just recognized as one of the Top 10 Product Inno vations by National Provisioner for 2001. Such new cuts as the Flat Iron Steak, Shoulder Ten der, and Sirloin Tip Steak offer tremendous potential.” Blackwell said the beef value cuts program is intended to offer greater benefits to cattle produc ers by enhancing the value of and increasing demand for un dervalued beef primals. 4 Sizes - 18 Colors - Wood or Cool Grates Forced Draft - Ash Auger Clean Out COMPARISON WITH OTHER OUTDOOR UNITS • Burns up to 1/2 less wood • Emits up to 1/2 less smoke • Corrosion Warranty up to 10 times longer Dealerships Available in some areas Eastern US Distributor Outback Heating Inc. 531 Old Skippack Rd.
