For some reason I’ve always wanted a Bacon Press. Will it work? How many slices of bacon fit under it? If they are so great, how come Williams-Sonoma never has one when I ask?
These mysteries have plagued me and perhaps it is memories of my bar-mitzvah that hold me back from buying one… has anyone [...]

Carolyn and I are always asking for real maple syrup at restaurants. At home we’ve tried a variety of different maples and we’re always looking for something special. This is why I was particularly pleased to receive this Morse Farms ‘First Night’ Maple Syrup.
Usually I instantly re-gift (or perhaps it should just be [...]

Traveling and not sure where to find a quality slice of pizza? Feel the need to voice your opinion on a truly horrible pizza joint?
Recently launched SliceFinder.com is a forum for just that. This site lets users rank the best (and worst) pizza in the country.
It’s about time for a website dedicated to finding the [...]

A fresh baked bagel is modest, delicate food, toasted to crackling on the outside but giving resistance enough to force the need to tear off each bite, usually leaving a lateral smear of hot cream cheese across your face. The best ones are from New York, of course, but any fresh-baked bagel is worth tracking [...]

Meat Water: Protein Drink

Uh. Get your protein on! New Meat Water claims to give you what it takes to build muscle — and it sounds delicious. Take their Ground Beef and Cheddar flavor for instance:
Ground Beef + aged Cheddar
As Samuel L. Jackson once said, “Now that’s a tasty burger!” How do you like yours? ‘Cause when it’s cooked [...]

Some online ad campaigns are really engaging—others are just plain annoying.
I have to give Taco Bell kudos on this one. You just cannot go wrong with trying to fulfill every guy’s fantasy of being a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit photographer. You get to pick which video of their model you’d like to watch, then snap pictures [...]

The US Department of Agriculture has shared that CORN FORECASTS ARE LOWER THAN LAST YEAR but don’t worry, when farmers read this… they’ll probably plant more corn. Really, thats what the Department of Agriculture said.
I’m just doing my piece, making sure you all know — the price of corn in 2008 may be 3x its [...]

Mamma Mia Pizza Beer

Another hat-tip to Ryan @ Brewers Daily for discovering “Mamma Mia Pizza Beer.”
HERE AT LAST! The wait is OVER! Friday, February 8th, 2008 marks the day that The Original Seefurth Family Mamma Mia Pizza Beer hit the street. Brewed and bottled at the Sprecher Brewing Company just outside of Milwaukee, WI, Sprecher is already offering [...]

Crazy Pizza Toppings

Asylum.com put together this Top 10 weirdest pizza toppings—it’s an eye opener—including fried eggs, squid ink, ketchup, rice, chocolate, pickles. There is even a combo pie with caviar, lobster and creme fraiche that goes for $1,000.
My favorite is the “Happy Meal Pizza.” Take a look: it has two cheeseburgers, fries and McNuggets. The [...]

Taco Trickery? Try the Turkey!

Taco Trickery? Never! We call it Taco MAGIC.
I’ve been following this beef taco recipe for several years — but we make a few simple changes:
First – use ground turkey! Trust me: beef masks the flavors of the spices, turkey lets them ring. Sure, sure sometimes a greasy beef taco is what you need. When [...]

Seems Geno’s Steaks, a 44 year old source of Philly’s fame cheesesteak, is under-fire for some allegedly discriminatory signage.
Joe Vento posted the signs at his shop in October 2005. They read “This is AMERICA: WHEN ORDERING ‘PLEASE SPEAK ENGLISH.’”
Critics allege the policy discourages customers of certain backgrounds from eating there. They say the signs [...]

» Evidently a fan of Ebert’s is trying to help Mars breed the supreme race of M&Ms.

Whenever I get a package of plain M&Ms, I make it my duty to continue the strength and robustness of the candy as a species. To this end, I hold M&M duels. Taking two candies between my thumb and forefinger, I apply pressure, squeezing them together until one of them breaks and splinters. That is the “loser,” and I eat the inferior one immediately. The winner gets to go another round.
M&Ms prove Darwin was right Thanks Ryan  # 0
