About Me

billjac: I'm just this guy with an interest in exploring the world of food, a scientific mindset and a dearth of people willing to sit and listen to me blather on the subject. So instead I'll post it here and perhaps an audience will find me. I've also got an interest in sustainable, local and/or organic food which led me to joining a local CSA. You can contact me at williamjac at gmail.com
