The end of an Era today... The best meatball sandwich on the block, in downtown, in the city, in Sacramento, California... Italian Importing Co., a midtown lunch favorite for generations, will close soon BY BLAIR ANTHONY ROBERTSON brobertson@sacbee.com In its heyday in the 1990s, well before the surge of new restaurants and bars on the midtown grid, Italian Importing Co. was known as an essential destination for lunch. The sandwiches were well-crafted, affordable and delicious, and you’d often get a little bit of banter on the side. Current owner Larry Otten, an alumnus of the famed Corti Brothers deli counter, has been there daily the past 27 years, serving customers, getting in his wisecracks and rolling his eyes just enough so a newcomer would instantly realize it’s a crime against Italian culinary humanity to ask for mustard on a sandwich with perfectly good imported prosciutto. Heaven help you if you requested American cheese. If you were a regular, you knew the specials each day and probably had a favorite sandwich – roast turkey, veal scallopini, meatballs topped with mouthwatering marinara. The line at noon stretched from the deli counter in the back to the front door, and it went on like that for two-plus hours. Times changed, but those sandwiches never did. Though business at Italian Importing Co. remains steady for lunch, those impossibly hectic days are in the past. Midtown and downtown have grown up, and there’s competition at every turn. Soon, more progress will spell the end for a beloved business that has been a humble part of Sacramento’s food legacy as far back as 1905. By the end of April, the business will close for good. The building with the big windows and well-worn tile floor at J and 19th streets will soon be demolished to make way for an 11-story residential building with street-level retail. The developer is Nikky Mohanna. (at Downtown Sacramento California)

Todays the day @sprouts @organicpasturesdairy Whole Raw Milk gallon $13.99 new low price That's a $3.00 savings from the old price. I don't work for these folks, I just drink their milk and use all Organic Pastures dairy foods... Treat yourself and family right, buy and eat the best nutrition money can buy. Your personal health must be the standard in life. Eat well and be well... I don't drink or eat pasteurized dairy and you should think about doing it too. Raw milk is best... and three dollars in savings per gallon now is alot when buying Organic Pastures throughout the month. #rawdairy #rawmilk #raw #rawbutter #rawcheese #rawcream #rawkeifer #milk #dairy #food #nutrition #eatingwell #eat #dairycows #pasturefed (at Sprouts Farmers Market)

Trader Joe's Seedless Clementines. Easy to peel it says, well that's not exactly accurate, some are and some are not easy to peel. What really matters is that most of these little round half mandarin orange and half a sweet orange are Yummy Sweet. Similar to tangerines, I eat as much fresh citrus as I can get.
