Like many food sites these days — including the online home of Saveur magazine, as well as yours truly — newcomer The Daily Meal is a mix of original and reposted content, along with an online community. Fun content so far has included a post about America's greenest restaurants, a Thanksgiving toolbox, and a roundup of the world's healthiest cuisines:

A unifying factor among the cuisines on the list is the reliance on fresh, seasonal produce and a distinct lack of processed foods. Plus, all of the featured cultures, including Israel and the Caribbean, are known for their celebration of cooking and eating — the savoring and the community of a shared meal — so perhaps America’s mistake was deciding that food ever needed to be fast in the first place.
