There is one blog on the web whose peanut butter coverage has gone above and beyond lately. This week, Obama Foodorama has outdone itself with post after wonderful, detailed post about the intricacies of the peanut butter salmonella outbreak - including in person coverage of the Congressional hearings where PCA president Stewart Parnell took the fifth. Here are links to the blog entries you should check out:

Pre-Hearing: Ms. Foodorama gave us the cast of characters to expect on the Hill and announced she'd be at the hearing.

Intra-Hearing: During the hearing, Obama Foodorama gave us exclusive LIVE coverage via Twiter, which I posted about here

Post-Hearing: After the hearing, she wrote up her experiences with a post about Parnell's damning emails being read into the Congressional record and another about Rep. John Dingell calling the FDA's Dr. Stephen Sundlof incompetent. She followed THAT up with another post of her overall thoughts on the hearing. But if there's one post about the hearing you MUST READ, it's this one, Obama Foodorama's most comprehensive post by far.

Since the hearing, she's continued her coverage with an update about PCA's organic certification (oh yes, it's true!) and an interactive timeline of the peanut butter recall.

So, for all of your hard work, from La Vida Locavore to Obama Foodorama, we say thanks!!!
