random thoughts while watching food

pretty much all i do is think about food nowadays. it's too fun. thinking about menus to experiment with myself. places to eat with april. places to show my parents. i also think a lot about how i can improve my appreciation of food, which is kinna weird.

it kinna sucks though, when i'm trying to find a job as an engineer, and i'd rather look through a bunch of food blogs.

- sandra lee is a ho

- what else was going on in the world when jesus was alive?

- i don't know much about chef thomas keller other than the french laundry, but food blogs like to call him "foodie jesus". iono about that. but for me, iron chef masaharu morimoto is the closest thing to the food-zeus that i can think of. i wonder how thomas keller would do in an iron chef battle.

- i don't blame tyler florence for "selling out" by doing those applebee's commercials. can you blame him? he's one of the only real chefs left on food network's "in the kitchen" line-up, and he doesn't get the same shine as the rest of those HOS!

- ming tsai used to have a late late night show on the food network. now he has a daytime show on the kqed family of channels. some people might say that's a step down. eff no.

- rick bayless is the king of mexican cuisine. funny but true that just because you're the best cook in the southwest, you're the king of mexican cuisine, even if you're white.

- jacques pepin should win a lifetime achievement award, if he hasn't already. maybe even a nobel prize for culinary sciences.

- if rachel ray is such a sicilian girl, then why the hell can't she pronounce parmigiano reggiano right?

- i think i'm gonna vote no on all the propositions

- and fuck you pedro gomez!
