I created the Retro Sundays series to help newer readers easily navigate the very best of this blog's enormous back catalog of content. Each Retro Sundays column serves up a selection of the best articles from this week in history here at Casual Kitchen.
As always, please feel free to explore CK's Recipe Index, the Best Of Casual Kitchen page and my full Index of Posts. You can also receive my updates at Twitter.

This Week in History at Casual Kitchen:
The Food Spending Poll: Results and Conclusions (August 2009)
I did an informal poll of readers to see what percent of our disposable income we spend on food. The results were, quite frankly, a shock.
Southern Black-Eyed Pea Soup with Collards (August 2009)
This recipe is one of the greatest examples of laughably cheap, ever: a healthy, hearty stew that weighs in at a preposterous 45c-65c a serving.
Countdown: Top Ten Low Alcohol Drinks (August 2008)
These beverages generally have 1/2 to 1/3 of the alcohol in a typical standard drink, so you can keep your head about you during a night on the town. Just like my Top Ten Alcoholic Drinks of Summer, and my Top Ten No-Alcohol Drinks, this post captures a ton of search traffic. Also, see the comments for a spirited debate on the exact components of a Shandy.
Turning a Bad Recipe Into a Good One: Lime and Chipotle Shrimp (August 2007)
Some recipes look great on paper, but suck in reality. Here are tips on how we took a recipe flop from Simply Recipes, made a few key modifications, and turned it into an amazing addition to our recipe collection.
