Eaten what's not food?

Ok. The comment about unknowingly eating dog nearly caused me a breakdown yesterday. If that ever happened to me, I would kill the person that fed it to me and then have an irreversable mental breakdown. I'd be willing to try lots of different meats in other countries, but dog will NEVER be one.

Foodie vs. (Vegan) Foodie: Let's Stop Dropping Anvils Already

As a fish & fowl eater, I'd like to recommend going to www.christinacooks.com for some fabulous vegan recipes! So long as you aren't allergic to the ingredients, everyone can enjoy!

Also, no one ever has any right to tell another person what they should or shouldn't eat. EVER!! We are each allowed our own choices for our own reasons.

Watch It with Us: 'The Next Food Network Star,' Episode 6

Dear Melissa-
Growing up with a Spanish speaking nanny is NOT the same thing as growing up in a Spanish speaking household. Unless, of course, your parents completely abandoned to to the 24-7 care of the nanny and only saw you on holidays.

Served: Why Tipping Makes Everyone Uncomfortable

There is NO good reason why a server should not ask if a low tip or lack of tip is do to poor service. We once left no tip at all and were called at home (# was on check). As it turned out, the person responsible for divving up the bill forgot to add tip and we all assumed she did. I appreciate the opportunity to be able to say what was wrong or correct an error I made.

Top Chef: Tom Colicchio Doesn't Hate Toby Young

Toby is a bit abraisive, which I think bothered a lot of people. That much harshness was usually reserved for the wit of Anthony Bourdain. I didn't have a problem with Toby. If he stayed with the show longer, he would have meshed better with his critiques. Also, most important of all: we only see the edited version. He may have had comments you would have thought spectacular but didn't make it on to the screen.

Anti-Theft Lunch Bags Now on Sale

There was a story at my old job where someone used to steal the yogurt from a particular person's lunch everyday. She tried different ways to get this person to stop (hiding her lunch bag, etc). The way that finally worked: she emptied the yogurt container, inserted a dead mouse, filled the container back up with yogurt and carefully put the lid back on. That particular container was the last one ever stolen!--not that I'm suggesting anyone do this . . .

PBJ Debate: Jelly-Side Up or Down?

my wife taught me this: mix the peanut butter and jelly together first. Then the jelly doesn't ooze out or soak through the bread!

12-Year Old McDonald's Hamburger, Still Looking Good

As if I needed anymore reason to not eat at McDonald's. And yes, a number of my co-workers commented that the burger on the left looked more appetizing.

Alan Richman Doesn't Really Like Chicago Hot Dogs, Ouch

the reason he didn't like it is because they forgot the cucumber! also, if it is going to be a beef or pork hotdog, it has to be an all beef Vienna hot dog. They are the best (I, however, no longer eat beef-do they make a chicken dog?)
