This Week's Tasty 10
According to our handy site-metering utility, the top 10 most delicious items on Serious Eats this week were ...
1. In-N-Out 60th Anniversary Promotion: It's a Hoax
October 22 is In-N-Out's 60th anniversary, and there's been an email making the rounds talking about price rollbacks at the legendary California-based chain. But something sounded "off" about this offer. Sure enough. It's a hoax, and In-N-Out officially refutes the rumor. [from A Hamburger Today]
2. Peanut Butter Slices
If you hate the best part about peanut butter—licking it off the spoon or butter knife—then P.B Slices are just the product for you. Watch out Kraft Singles. These individually packaged, peel-off sheets of peanut butter are totally inviting themselves to your party.
3. Inexpensive, Versatile Foods in the Pantry

4. Butchers: Is There a Need for Them?
"I was thinking the other day....With butcher shops going the way of the typewriter has anyone seen any new ones spring up in the last couple of years? Is there a need and can one attract new customers from a younger demographic who have never been to one?" [from Talk]
5. In Videos: Martha Stewart With Babies In Food-Inspired Halloween Costumes
Martha Stewart shows you how to turn your tot into a succulent roast turkey, complete with drumsticks. Also: an apple pie costume.
6. Reviewed: New Hershey's Kisses Pumpkin Spice
When I first heard about the pumpkin spice Hershey's Kisses, I didn't know what to expect. Would there be chocolate? A pumpkin center? A pumpkin shell?
7. In Videos: Axe Body Spray Chocolate Man
"Desperate women chomp pieces off Chocolate Man's ears, arms, hands, and butt. If I actually saw this guy in person, I'd definitely run the other way, even if he was made of Guittard 72% Cacao."
8. 100-Calorie Packs Have Gone Too Far
"I was at a pet store and spotted a 100-calorie snack pack. Did a double-take. No, it was not human food, it was dog treats. Come on, now, have we lost all sense? What's next, 100-calorie mulch for garden plants, so they don't get too fat?" [from Talk]
9. Homemade Nilla Wafers (Leave the Box on the Shelf)
"Though I developed these cookies to go with vanilla pudding and bananas, they are delicious sandwiched with jam or ice cream or just dunked into milk." [from Recipes]
10. In Videos: Monkeys Make Terrific Waiters
It's official. Monkeys can do a better job waiting on tables than some humans. What, you don't believe us? Watch these videos.
