Time for Silly Season
The New York Times featured an article last week titled "Foie Gras
Palates, Hot Dog Pocketbooks" where it said:
"Food porn begets fast-food porn, which in turn has come to verge on
fast-food parody, some of it perhaps intentional. The Web site Fancy
Fast Food <http://www.fancyfastfood.com/> actually devises and presents
recipes for seemingly refined, accomplished dishes that just rearrange
and redeploy ingredients in items purchased directly from, say, Kentucky
Fried Chicken.Or Domino’s. That chain’s American Legends Pacific Veggie
pizza is the entirety of the shopping list for a dish that Fancy Fast
Food labels Dao Mi Noh Chow Mein and that, as pictured on the site,
looks like something in a proper Chinese restaurant.How crazy can it
get? Do a Google search on “cupcake blog” and see how many pop up,
including “Hello, Cupcake!,” “Cupcake Project,” “Crumbs and Doilies,”
“No One Puts Cupcake in a Corner” and “Cupcakes Take the Cake,” whose
inventory of posts includes “cupcake kebab how-to,” “cupcake license
plates” and “cupcake bakeries on Twitter
<http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/business/companies/twitter/index.html?inline=nyt-org>.”
So what are the weirdest or most fun food blogs out there?
