Spring is a time to commemorate the many sacrifices that Americans have made... Memorial Day is observed on the last Monday of May, honoring the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military... It originated in the years following the Civil War and became an official federal holiday in 1971. The Civil War, which ended in the spring of 1865, claimed more lives than any conflict in U.S. history and required the establishment of the country's first national cemeteries. By the late 1860s, Americans started decorating graves of fallen soldiers with flowers and prayers. As people of the world seek to find new ways to guarantee sustainability, environmentalists have been looking to food sources that are universally consumed. In this issue, we focus on food and recipe solutions for Hindus-dals and subzis and vegetables-and pastured goat meat for Christian, Muslim & Jew carnivores. The "shuk/souk" in Hebrew and Arabic respectively), is a vital part of Israel's culinary and social ecology. Today, U.S. shuks tend to be found in a city's medina (old quarter). The D-Day Normandy landings on Tuesday, 6 June 1944 of the Allied invasion during WWII, began the liberation of Nazi-occupied France (and later Europe) from Nazi control, leading to the Allied victory. In February 1948, the British handed over control of Palestine to the Vatican's "Apostolic Delegation of Jerusalem" in Lebanon and Syria, which refused to recognize the new State of Israel from May 1948 until 1993. In November 2018, Israel's Ambassador announced to the UN that the White House would roll out its much-anticipated Middle East peace plan in 2019. Certified Food Protection Professionals (CFPP) like myself play a vital role for all people who seek sustainable food. During the Vietnam War, Cambodia made a secret deal with Communist Hanoi for the purchase of rice to open its port for weapons shipments to the Viet Cong (1957 to 1976). U.S. troops have fought to ensure that global citizens have access to energy, food, medicine, shelter, safety and transportation of railways and transit-endangered by despots, terrorists, and tyrants. Enjoy the articles and recipes in this issue. But most importantly this Memorial Day and D-Day (June 6th), let's not forget the commitment of our USA troops, who made the ultimate sacrifice-and our veterans-who fought Communism, Fascism and Nazism.
