Word spread, and eventually so many people bought his $1 tomato plants that he was able to pay off his house. That\u2019s how the \u201cmortgage lifter\u201d got its name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But in 2020, Folkways Reporter Zack Harold brought us a story about another West Virginia tomato plant, also called \u201cmortgage lifter.\u201d And it\u2019s even older.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Ramp Hunter<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"https:\/\/wvpublic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/250803_RampHunter_MichaelSnyder_WVPB_IA-700x467.jpg\" alt=\"A woman picking ramps, a green leafy plant, in the woods. \" class=\"wp-image-63155\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Ramp Hunter.

in a few weeks adhere to <a href=\"https:\/\/governor.wv.gov\/article\/governor-patrick-morrisey-signs-food-dye-legislation-law\">a new state law<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The law, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wvlegislature.gov\/Bill_Status\/bills_history.cfm?INPUT=2354&year=2025&sessiontype=RS\">House Bill 2354<\/a>, was passed by the West Virginia Legislature and signed by Gov. Patrick Morrisey earlier this year. It bans certain colorful food dyes including Blue No. 1, Blue No. 2, Green No. 3, Red No. 3, Red No. 40, Yellow No. 5, and Yellow No. 6 tied to some behavior problems and long-term health concerns, as well as several synthetic food preservatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There have been changes in some popular food items. Walking tacos are off the menu for now, because Doritos use the banned dyes. Strawberry milk is allowed \u2013 but the pink color kids love now comes from trace amounts of beet juice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Justin Hough, director of child nutrition for Preston County schools, said breakfast items, in particular, faced more changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe students always do love a cereal day or a Pop Tart day. So some of the cereals took a hit,\u201d said Hough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cObviously, you know, Fruit Loops when you're dealing with that many colors of the different loops there, you know, that's one, but Trix and some other brands have already managed to not utilize artificial dyes,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tony Crago is the director of the Office of Child Nutrition for the West Virginia Department of Education. He said all 630 public schools serveing 240,000 students across the state will be ready when schools open.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI'm 100% confident that the kids will be fed, well fed, nutritious meals, and that our staff in these counties are going to make this work. They're not going to let kids go hungry,\u201d Crago said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some items temporarily taken off the menu \u2013 like Dorito\u2019s \u2013 are scheduled to reappear once manufacturers meet the new requirements, expected to happen by late fall. <\/p>\n","post_title":"W.Va.

announce a new program from <i>America’s Test Kitchen</i> (ATK) founder Christopher Kimball, <i>Milk Street Radio</i>. With ATK ceasing production of its radio show (television will continue) at year-end, the timing of Kimball’s new adventure couldn’t be more perfect.</p> <p>The wide world of food is coming to <i>Christopher Kimball’s Milk Street Radio</i> and in turn, to foodies everywhere. From street food in Thailand to a bakery in a Syrian refugee camp to how one scientist uses state of the art pollen analysis to track the origins of honey (and also to solve crimes), <i>Milk Street Radio</i> goes anywhere and everywhere to ask questions and get answers about cooking, food, culture, wine, farming, restaurants, literature, and the lives and cultures of the people who grow, produce, and create the food we eat.</p> <p>With a four-star cast of contributors, the long-time public TV and radio host brings <i>Christopher Kimball’s Milk Street Radio</i> to West Virginia Public Broadcasting beginning January 1, 2017. The program will air Sundays at 3pm.</p> <p>Former West Virginian Bridget Lancaster and other ATK personalities will join Lynne Rossetto Kasper to share practical, hands-on culinary expertise on <i>The Splendid Table</i>, which airs Sundays at 2pm.</p> <p>On Monday nights, due to its unfortunate mid-season cessation of production and distribution, another program change has occurred with <i>World of Opera</i>.</p> <p>Director of Programming Kristi George explained, “After we got over the surprise, we learned that the source of live opera performances, the European Broadcasting Union, was no longer able to provide them.”</p> <p>George added, “We were assured that numerous options for continuing the program were explored, but none had been fruitful.”</p> <p>WVPB will air holiday specials with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra to round out the remaining Mondays in December. Then beginning in January, the <i>BBC World Service</i> will air from 9pm throughout the night.</p> <p>Be sure to check out our other <a href="http://wvpublic.org/post/enjoy-these-holiday-radio-specials-wvpb" class="Link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">holiday specials</a> too.</p> <p>As we move forward, we are heartened by other opportunities for opera fans and invite you to join West Virginia Public Broadcasting in supporting them.</p> <p>A variety of music options – including opera and classical music – is available to our television audience. Among these are <i>Great Performances</i> and <i>Live from Lincoln Center</i>. Program schedules for the West Virginia Public Broadcasting Television Network and the WV Channel can be found <a href="http://wvpublic.org/schedules" class="Link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here</a>.</p> <p>Live statewide events for the Met are being held through May. The Met’s 11<sup>th</sup> season of <i>Live in HD</i> is transmitted live in high-definition cinema simulcasts at three area locations: Huntington Mall – Barboursville, Nitro Stadium 12, and Morgantown Stadium 12.
