Not too great, coming from the NYT. The angle is "Ultraprocessed Foods" are bad but skirts around the issue that some are not bad, such as multigrain bread and plant milks. Further, Ultraprocessed Foods tend to be very inexpensi

Hard to overstate Albini's influence, both as a musician and producer. Big Black? No one was doing stuff like that in the mid-80s. His production on PJ Harvey's Rid of Me took her compositions to a new level. He also produced a lo
