New issue of Eat This Newsletter out now, with raw material provided by @kitchenbee @historicuk @minimaxir and a minor kerfuffle in the august pages of @PNASNews.

Read it at https://buttondown.email/jeremycherfas/archive/eat-this-newsletter-185-heat/ and feel free to subscribe, for free.

Biggest mistake I ever made was starting a "free trial" of @RealVNC because now my original Home VNC Viewer no longer works and I cannot find a way to revert.

Not surprised that only 25% of people found this useful https://help.realvnc.com/hc/en-us/articles/360003474552#on-the-device-you-want-to-control-from-0-4

Latest issue of Eat This Newsletter is about to drop, racing through the backlog so normal service can be restored ASAP. There's hops, heritage grains and climate change, plus agricultural policy in South Africa and the US.

Consider subscribing.

Slightly puzzled by Epilogue for MB for those of us who do not have a paid account. Does it feed my timeline, eventually? If it does, I might consider PESOS rather than indiebookclub and POSSE. Also, two way traffic, to open someone’s link in MB would encourage conversation.

Finished reading: Underland: A Deep Time Journey by Robert MacFarlane, ISBN: 9780393358094

Currently reading: Three Day Road by Joseph Boyden, ISBN: 9780143037071

"You begin the book a sober reader, calmly appreciating the complexity of historical causation, and you finish it a raving wheat monomaniac."

Glad to know I am not alone. Fine review of @nelsonhist's book in the NYRB
