Consumer Brands Association “about as Big Ultra-Processed Food as you can get” launches a campaign[1].
“The concept of ultra-processing is an existential threat to the companies that make such products. The CBA’s all-out effort to discredit the concept is a tribute to how powerful it is.”
A good reason to remind you that “Food Facts Are Not the Answer to Fear of Foods” [2].

Put new tyres and tubes on the bike so took it out into the park where there happened to be a Rabbit to bag. Bike rode smoothly and managed to get on top of the Quest, at least according to the phone.

New tyres and tubes on both wheels;
Schwalbe Marathon Plus. Installed easily enough with a Tyre Glider and plenty of clearance. I was about to take off on a test ride but the brakes aren’t very well adjusted, so I had to come upstairs and ask Calvin at Park Tools to take me through that as a refresher. Now I guess I'll wait until after lunch.
I have been interviewed for Hyde’s “Over/Under” series.
Tucked away for the winter, two frangipani making good use of a bidet.

Rabbit Quest to the rescue again to pull me out of a bit of a Sunday afternoon funk. Down in my old ‘hood, where the gasometer and other hulking relics of the old coal-powered generating stations loom over the river.

Yes:
No idea what this is. Maybe some kind of gall, but it had the look and feel of hard shiny plastic.
