Apparently, the culinary world does not stop when your CL Food Editor steps out for a little staycation. Here's your guide to the wide world of food for the past 10 days.
- Soy "milk"? It's an aberration and,"as one British government report put it, manufacturing soy milk is closer to making fruit juice than cow's milk." (Slate)
- The Baconator causes worldwide hunger? "Potentially, and this is up for debate, a benefit of higher prices is lower consumption, and, in this country, that actually would not be a bad thing overall." (Reuters)
- Bodyguard dining etiquette: "Your bodyguard (unlike your hairdresser, stylist and personal assistant) is not your friend."(WMag)
- Food Network leaks results of own reality show: "In case you’ve already paid the caterer for your Lisa-Adam-Aaron watching party or you are really into the show, I am not going to tell you who wins, but I am truly astounded by the fact that they have posted the “Exit Interviews” for the two “losers” and the “Winning Moment” clip for the winner 3 days before the show airs." (SideDish)
- Might be tastier than her human food, snap! "With Isaboo Bacon Flavor Booscotti, you too, can indulge your favorite pooch with the mouth-watering bacon dogs love. And if it’s peanut butter they’re begging for, then Isaboo Peanut Butter Booscotti will give them loads of lip-smacking flavor." (RachaelRay)
- David Lynch sells good coffee: "as black as midnight on a moonless night"...and hot! (SeriousEats)
- Excuse me sir, but would you..."here's your Grey Poupon, roll your f***ing windows up!" (SmokingGun)
- "We can't just stay at home all day making Manwiches with the mailman and the stay-at-home dad across the street." (Chow)
