Ryze and shine, it’s ya gals and we’re talking scans, soccer, and sucralose. Maybe it’s a rant, but for real: when food is sneaky about taste or ingredients, it just makes us mad. Stef’s heading off to the Lobular Breast Cancer Symposium as a patient advocate. Will she see Dr. Otto Metzger and offer him a jar of her famous canned pears? Can he call Fred Hutch about her medical debt? Only time will tell. We’re throwing caution to the wind, splashing out and taking the Breast Cancer Caravan to the OL Reign soccer experience, so join us for the 10/1 game! In letters, a listener turns us on to yet another mushroom opportunity. Then, RATS scampers in with a good news/bad news situation. The bad news is that cancer for young people is on the rise. The good news? We’re looping in an expert about it.
