		<description><![CDATA[Also, too, I tuned out nearly all the fluffing for the hometown paper’s big “morality of meat-eating” debate &#8212; it had all the validity of a HuffPost boob-science screamer, with its naked intent to amass links and comments. But I did read a news story in the relatively-sedate-for-Murdoch competition on the sad state of horses [...]]]></description>

How “ravioli” can be baked-not-boiled things is never addressed, although my suspicion that these are really empanadas was countered by [...]]]></description>

And called it “healthier pot pie” at 615 calories a [...]]]></description>
