"… the eggs in the flowers develop with two sets of chromosomes (2n), instead of one. When the eggs are pollinated, they create triploid cells … These cells are capable of maturing into fruit, but the seeds in that fruit are not genetically viable – so they can’t be fertilized and develop the hard, black [seed coat]."

Taco Bell has been dabbling in the frozen drink category all summer long. Recently, the Mexican fast food chain released the Berry Frosé Twisted Freeze. This summer time libation is made with two ounces of Charles & Charles rosé wine, but is only available at Taco Bell Cantina locations in Newport Beach, California, and Chicago, Illinois. So, if you can’t make it to one of these two locations to slurp down a Berry Frosé Twisted Freeze this summer, at least you can take solace in the fact that you’ve got the Watermelon Freeze on your side.

There have been a bunch of significant openings this year – from ice cream, coffee and doughnut shops to burger joints and bars – all adding to the Spokane region’s burgeoning food scene.

Shaun Thompson Duffy’s Culture Breads finally found a brick-and-mortar location, and it’s been a game-changer for Spokane’s bread scene. The shop, tucked in into a long-empty storefront in the South Perry District, celebrates local grain from field to glass and flour to loaf. Thompson Duffy makes bread the old-fashioned way: by hand, using ancient, landrace and heirloom grains that are stone-ground on site, then naturally leavened and wood-fired in a custom-built oven. Because of Spokane’s location along the northern edge of the Palouse, one of the nation’s top grain-growing regions, Thompson Duffy is also able to do something many bakers aren’t. He’s able to get all of his grain from within 100 miles of the spot where it’s milled and baked into bread. While some make a point to use some locally or regionally grown grain, it’s rare to find a shop that bakes solely with it. The fully renovated building also houses a nano-brewery that makes beers with locally grown and locally malted grain, some of which comes from farmer Don Scheuerman, co-founder of Palouse Heritage and one of the partners in the business. Also on the menu: sandwiches and wood-fired flatbreads and Viennoiserie, such as croissants and pains au chocolat. 1026 E. Newark Ave. (509) 241-3853. thegrainshed.coop.

These nuts come from the Bertholletia excelsa tree, which is native to the Amazon rainforest, and can live for more than 500 years. The outer casing of the nut is so hard that only one animal, the agouti (a type of rodent) is capable of cracking it–meaning that humans have to use axes or machetes just to get to the treasure inside! Brazil nuts are one of the best sources of selenium, a mineral that can help boost mood, prevent depression, and fight inflammation in the body. They also contain an antioxidant called ellagic acid, which, in addition to combating inflammation, may help boost brain health. These benefits, in addition to their healthy monounsaturated fats, make Brazil nuts an ideal addition to your summer snack list.
