    Season 9: Healthier & Tastier – It's All In The Formula | Episode 5: Waxing Poetic About Healthy Oils

    Wouldn’t it be great if the oils and margarines you cook with were actually healthy for you and still enhanced the flavor of your foods? Researchers at ARS’s Functional Foods Research Unit in Peoria, Illinois, are mixing common cooking oils with natural waxes to create oleogels – which you can say is the secret sauce behind a healthier cooking oil.

  5. Season 9: Healthier & Tastier | Episode 1: A Healthier Milk Chocolate

    Season 9: Healthier & Tastier | Episode 1: A Healthier Milk Chocolate

    The U.S. imports around $5 billion in cocoa and chocolate products annually, and we produce millions of pounds of chocolate for consumers. The health benefits of dark chocolate are well known, mainly it has more antioxidants than milk chocolate because it contains more cacao solids. But dark chocolate can be brittle and taste bitter.  What if we could make milk chocolate as healthy as dark chocolate, without sacrificing taste? And what if we could do it by adding a low value agricultural byproduct, such as peanut skins? Connect with us:   Twitter: @USDA_ARSFacebook: @AgriculturalResearchServiceLinkedIn: @usda-ars

How about science and technology? Probably not, but science and technology play a major role in the textile industry.
