Food News, Weekend Edition

Mark Bittman from the NY Times visits Campo de Fiori in Rome. If you can get through the first few horrific minutes, where he examines all the varieties of fresh tomatoes* available there, it's a pretty interesting video. I wrote about Campo de Fiori here, but I don't remember seeing so many tomatoes.

What to eat: Curcumin.

What else to eat: Peanuts.

What not to eat: Pretzels.

Don't feed the ducks. 

Don't tease me like this.

Don't give me this: Bacon Salt makes everything taste like bacon. (If you sprinkle it on your tomato, will you have 2/3s of a BLT?)

Cake wrecks, a blog about cakes that never should have been. 

*I do not like fresh tomatoes. Or anything that can be described as "flesh".
