1. Dwight Shrute would be pleased with #1.
I use turmeric all the time. It's what is in fried rice to make it yellow.

5. They've been rebranded, dontcha know?
Seriously. "Prunes" are for old people who can't drop a deuce.

"Dried plums" are for hip youngsters looking for a power snack!

I'm not sure which I am, but I freaking love 'em.

4. The headline of that article is kind of dumb (not that it's your fault).

I am eating some of those and I'm sure many others are also. Beets and cabbage are pretty common and I also eat sardines, blueberries, and cinnamon pretty often. Maybe it should be "The 11 best foods you should be eating".
