What happened to the newspaper food section links? It was my weekly ritual!

Thanks for your reply Judy! Since most of the major newspapers have significantly downsized their food sections or completely discontinued these sections, we had to make the tough decision to eliminate this section from the new site as it was too difficult to keep up with the most current newspaper links. I have found a site where you can still look up Newspaper Food sections here: http://www.cooksaurus.com/foodnews.asp.

I looked forward to your food section every Thursday. You did a wonderful job and Thanks.
