How $10,000 speaker cables can teach us a valuable lesson on getting the most out of the food we buy. (Eating Rules)

Recipe Links:
A simple and laughably easy Spiced Cabbage. (Chow & Chatter)

100% authentic and surprisingly easy: Nuoc Cham or Vietnamese Dipping Sauce. (Closet Cooking)

A healthy, "hurry up" meal you can make in minutes: White Bean and Summer Vegetable Pasta. (Choosing Raw)

Off-Topic Links:
Unsolicited book recommendation of the week: John McPhee's Encounters with the Archdruid. This oddly titled book gives a surprisingly balanced and open-minded look at the maturation of the environmental movement in the USA. I just finished reading it (for the second time!) last week, and highly, highly recommend it.
