In California, the state veterinarian banned chicken shows to limit the spread of bird flu. That left county fairs across the state devoid of chickens — and their 7-year-old 4H caretakers despondent.

Human beings are indeed composed of four basic humours: bile, fire, earth…

I once ate seven bowls of ragù bolognese over the course of a single weekend. I was in Bologna, to be fair, and on a mission – to get to the bottom of spag bol (yes, I know it should be served with tagliatelle). A few years earlier, I did something similar with a Polish stew called bigos (a sort of hunter’s stew). I wanted to learn about its variations, its nuances, and I wondered what you could find out about a place if you dived into one dish in particular. In the case of bigos, I gleaned that the Polish are prepared to wait…
