Now that I have some ingredients around, there will be actual meals in the near future, namely black bean chili (it's chilly again in San Francisco) and caprese crepes.

How would you like it if grocery carts had touch screens and barcode scanners that you could use to get nutritional info and environmental impact info from about various foods? The Technology Services Company, EDS, outlined in a recent paper that grocery carts with computer screens would be a practical and cost-effective solution to consumers who like knowing about the foods they consume— even though most said they preferred reading labels directly from the box.
