November 4, 2011 Why is it that nobody has thought to do this, yet? I'm, personally, not a fan of ketchup, but a BBQ fountain or Frank's Red Hot Sauce fountain I'd be all in!
November 1, 2011 I love apples, being from Yakima. Oranges are great, too. What are you munching on today during lunch?
October 28, 2011 When it comes to french fries, I wouldn't consider myself 'king' by any means. In fact, to be honest, I usually don't order french fries so they have to be amazing for me to opt for those instead of any other side. Here are my favori
According to a new report from the Center for Retail Research, the most frequently stolen food on the planet is… cheese.
The report says four percent of the protein and calcium-rich (not to mention tasty) food winds up being shoplifted worldwide every year, besting the theft-rates for other items like candy and alcohol and causing cheese to be labeled “high risk” for retailers.
If you're planning a Halloween party, don't get lazy with the treats and snacks. Just setting out big bowls of candy is not going to cut it.
Instead, how about Mummy Cookie Pops? Or Frankenstein Marshmallows? Or even Mis-Fortune Cookies?
September 28, 2011 Our friends at Sundance Espresso can whip up a mean Spinach Smoothie for you, but one item I don't think you'll ever find on the menu are these Frog Smoothies from Peru.
I don't know, would you try it?
September 27, 2011 As soon as I heard there was going to be Deep Fried Butter at the Central Washington State Fair this year, I couldn't wait to try it. Unfortunately, I tried to take video of taking my first initial bite but it didn't record. Believe me, it's as good as you think it is bad for you. It tastes like toast with too much butter. A little cinnamon and sugar or some raspberry preservative to dip in it and it's out of this world. When you jab your fork into the doughy balls of butter, the butter just kind of melts out.
I had had a couple of them, then sat them aside for a while. A few hours later, I decided to give it another shot. I know they're good when they're fresh, but how do they stand up when they're cold? Let's see:
August 22, 2011 You may have seen the sign on Washington when you were heading towards Toys R Us or GameStop that Photo Haus now sells hot dogs and spuds. When opening a new restaurant, inside the Photo Haus is probably the last place I'd think to place a hot dog stand so I was immediately interested. You can imagine how much more I was intrigued that it wasn't just hot dogs and spuds, but you could get them together - like, substitute a baked potato instead of a hot dog bun.
When it comes to food at the state fair, there’s one abiding rule that all vendors must adhere to: If you fry it, they will come. To commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Iowa State Fair’s life size butter cow, Larry Fyfe is offering up a fitting fair treat treat — deep fried butter on a stick.
August 5, 2011 Thinking about eating lunch? You'll think again after watching this video. They're preparing this squid dish that uses a living squid. This squid is almost terminator like, no matter what they do, it just won't die.
July 7, 2011 Remember the old Pringles slogan, "Once you pop, you can't stop"? Research now suggests it could be more true than we ever thought.
The journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) says US researchers found that foods high in fat trigger natural feel-good chemicals with effects similar to those found in marijuana. These chemicals, called endocannabinoids, produce a drug-like feeling that can lead to gorging on foods such as chips and fries.
If there’s one knock against Kool-Aid, it’s that it’s not fattening enough. Sure those sugars are going to turn into fat at some point, but what if you need a quicker fix? Who has time to sit around all day waiting for their metabolism to convert that excess glycogen to fatty acids? Enter deep-fried Kool-Aid, the newest oil-injected creation from the reigning king of fair food, “Chicken” Charlie Boghosian that’s a major web obsession right now.
