08.24.06 by Widge @ 8:52 pm  The Counter lets you build your own burger. As you can see from their menu, they have a crapload of toppings. So Tim did what any one of us would do: he ordered one with everything. I'm talking everything. It weighed in at five pounds and had a total of fifty-four toppings. Then he tried to eat it in thirty minutes. What a freaking maniac. Tim, we salute you. Of course, I checked with our Minister of Beastflesh, Siege, and he's thrown a yellow card on the play: See that's cheating. You have to have it on a bun for it to be an accomplishment. He just made a Siege- and Widge-friendly salad. You know it's a Siege- and Widge-friendly salad, when it requires a steak knife to eat. Regardless, I figure you could easily make a giant bun that would incorporate all that. So I'm going to be impressed anyway. And wish I had a Counter here in Coast City. Categorized as: Food

08.18.06 by Widge @ 3:13 am  I had no idea this even existed. Record Robot has posted three MP3s of Vincent Price's Foods From the Austro-Hungarian Empire, an album designed to be part of Price's international cooking course. Read the article at Record Robot for the full story, but considering I'd be content with hearing Price read the freaking phone book, hearing him talk about fine food works for me too.

08.13.06 by Widge @ 6:13 am  I dig Altoids. I like the mints, especially the cinnamon ones. I dig their gum, because it's actually intense, as opposed to a lot of supposedly "strong" gums that last about five seconds. I even like the sour bits, although I can't consume too many of them before whatever makes them sour starts to screw with my head. But dipping an Altoid mint in dark chocolate? Does this sound like a good idea to anyone? I mean, kudos for this eBay auction going to help the Red Cross and all, but these will hit shelves eventually, so the description says. And I say gah. Just gah. Categorized as: Food

08.06.06 by Widge @ 7:19 pm  For you Who fans out there--and hell, for pretty much anybody--Chocablog has the right attitude down when it comes to not only this beastly concoction but also chocolate experiments of any kind:
Genius. Exterminate indeed. Categorized as: Food

07.13.06 by Cosette @ 7:16 am  Chicago-based ecreamery.com has come up with an ingenious idea for us ice cream junkies. They allow you to build your own gourmet ice cream. First, you choose a base mixture, from a lighter gelato mix to a super creamy (just try not to read the part with the fat content). Next, you choose flavors (everything from black raspberry to anise), and finally, mixed-in goodies like walnut brownies, licorice, or even candied rose petals or basil. Finally, you get to name your creation and have it shipped to you! To illustrate just how creative you can get, their flavor of the month is Cucumber Dill. If you can't afford the steep prices, you can at least create something fabulous (or very scary) and e-mail your creation to a friend. Found via Popgadget. Categorized as: Food and Stimuli
