There’s a lot going on in the world of food, so Good Food Pittsburgh will give you Something To Chew On in this regular wrap-up of the best food stories of the day.

  • Thanksgiving can be expensive – especially if you’re cooking for a lot of people. The Kitchn has rounded up a few ideas to keep costs low, from shopping your pantry to prioritizing meal plans for what your family actually wants to eat. [The Kitchn]
  • What’s the crazy thing that happens when you tell Americans that processed meat can cause cancer? They start eating more of it. [Washington Post]
  • In Peru, folk remedies are still used by people to cure everything from broken bones to back pain. And one of the most popular folk remedies – and one of the cheapest – are frog smoothies. Whether or not they’ll cure what ails you is in the eye of the beholder, but they are an excellent source of protein. [NPR]
  • For one day, 7-Eleven is allowing customers to name their own price for Slurpees (and the money will go to a good cause). [Food Beast]
  • We’ve been baking up a storm for our Holiday Cookie Swap (and there are still free tickets left if you want to join us!), and just tried these Lemon Jammies with homemade lemon curd left over from our last major canning session. Success! [The Splendid Table]
