Review: The Hello Kitty Wine, Brut Rose
They might as well rename it "Hello, Creepy," because that's exactly how you'll feel purchasing Hello Kitty wine, from the moment you ask the sales clerk where to find it, right through to the cash register ring-up, where they will encircle the neck of your bottle with a pendant suitable for a six-year-old. Nothing makes you feel like a pedophile faster than buying a bottle of Hello Kitty Wine.Video: 'FOOD' from Tales Of Mere Existence
"I wish I could eat food until I'm stuffed and then get into a time machine to travel back to when I started eating so I could keep eating food." In the "Food" episode of his series Tales of Mere Existence, artist and film maker Levni Yilmaz talks about the many things he would like to eat—eggs Benedict, pizza, foie gras, quiche, and more—and why he wants to eat them, while drawing an accompanying cartoon.Food-Related Idioms from 'I'm Not Hanging Noodles on Your Ears'

According to Media Bistro: "Today weatherguy Al Roker is shopping an animated cartoon about the life of a 'major player in the culinary world'—read chef—as a child, he confirms. Like any oyster with strong survival instincts, Roker’s lips are sealed about details. He will say, however, that two networks are interested 'and it’s looking pretty good.'"...In Videos: Funny Fictional Cocktails
In his latest cocktail column, Eric Felten of the Wall Street Journal describes some fictional cocktails from cartoons, movies, and books. Daffy Duck cartoons, The Nutty Professor, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, and The Simpsons have all provided recipes or inspiration for cocktails—more likely than not, ones that are overly potent and undrinkable.

thebigskinnybook.com Cartoonist Carol Lay toiled with weight for years, until she reached her goal of 125 pounds. (She's kept it off ever since.) In her new graphic novel-memoir-motivational diet book, The Big Skinny: How I Changed My Fattitude, Lay uses imaginative story lines to show it ain't easy—like George Clooney showing up, tempting her with sausage-egg biscuits and hash browns. But her will power was strong enough to slam the door on him, and again when the senior chick magnet showed up in a silk robe, dangling a nightcap at her. On another page, evil strikes again, but in the form of a girl scout at the door. How will the heroine combat Thin Mint temptation? A chainsaw. Lay...Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
