We've been hiking for hours along the Inverness Ridge Trail, above the shining blue ribbon of Tomales Bay, and we're ravenous. Maybe it's all the gazing at the water that leads my boyfriend, Peter, and me to look at each other and mouth the same word: "oysters."

Thus, in keeping with one of the few halfway newsworthy themes this July, Jerome Jumpp of Slough, UK, is our E-mailer of the Week for his thesis that 1) a big reason for failure is that the lesser variety doesn't measure up to the real thing and, 2) the only way to prevent that is to place franchises internationally.

Nelson Peltz's new adventure, his campaign to rescue ailing Kraft Foods, could be titled, "Son of H.J. Heinz," or "Heinz, the Sequel." The activist investor's hedge fund, Trian Investments, has quietly bought 3 percent of the owner of Nabisco, Maxwell House, Oscar Mayer and scores of other famous brands, a stake worth around $1.8 billion. Sources close to Peltz tell Fortune that he's extremely upset that news of the purchases leaked out before he could spring the news - and his new plan - on the new CEO, Irene Rosenfeld, who returned to Kraft last June after running Frito-Lay for three years. But investors are already getting a lift from the Peltz tonic that revived Cadbury Schweppes, Tiffany, and Heinz: Since the leak on Thursday, Kraft's shares have surged around 5 percent, putting almost $3 billion in investors' pockets.

I specialized in forage management and graduated "Quel fromage!" meaning "avec distinction."
Many of the restaurants on California's Monterey Peninsula are aimed at out-of-towners. Lovely views of the sunset on Monterey Bay are supposed to compensate for overpriced, mediocre food, all too often served in faux seafaring surroundings. The best spots, not surprisingly, are more inconspicuous, beyond the bustle.
Locals call this part of the Florida Panhandle "the Forgotten Coast," but spend a weekend in Apalachicola, and you'll never forget it. This unspoiled town of roughly 3,000 residents boasts adorable boutiques, cozy dining nooks and quirky oyster joints. It's the perfect place to hide away for a few days and blend in with the locals.
New York's temples of haute cuisine get so much attention, it's possible to forget that the real pride and joy for locals -- who tend to eat out more than other Americans, on average -- is the vast array of modestly priced restaurants serving food from all around the globe.
