Party Mix All I Wanna Fondue: Food Nonsense from Around the Web
Posted by Sean Maloney on Tue, May 3, 2011 at 10:38 AM
Need to waste some time with something other than cable news? Need to take a break from the beer-swilling, goat-humping nuttiness of the last couple of days? May I kindly suggest some detours:
*My Food Looks Funny. Nothing quite cuts through the clutter of the contemporary news cycle quite like pictures of Twinkie pizzas. Ya, you read that right — slices of Twinkie on top of a pizza. I'd say that the only proper response is a hardy chant of "USA! USA! USA!" Try it at home! It's fun for the whole family!
* I think it's safe to say that if somebody makes bland music there's a very, very good chance that they make very bland food. Hence you will not find a copy of Sheryl Crow's If It Makes you Healthy cookbook on the shelves at the Maloney compound. I wouldn't let Sandra Dee anywhere near my CD player, so why would I let Ms. Crow anywhere near my kitchen, amiright? Mosh Potatoes is more my thing, frankly. That said, Emily Weiss' "Alternate Titles for Sheryl Crow's New Cookbook" over on The Hairpin is a work of pun-tastic genius and totally worth your time. The same cannot be said, however, about the discography of Sheryl Crow.
* Oh look, they want to make a Top Chef musical! That's a terrible idea. Unless they give Arnold Myint a figure-skating solo, then I'm down.
*And picking up where we left off yesterday: bacon, bacon, bacon, bacon.
