[Photograph: Amazon.com] Cow udder, corn smut, fish sperm, sea worm, live octopus—these wouldn't appear on most people's dining tables, but somewhere out there, someone is eating these foods. Extreme Cuisine, the new book from Eddie Lin of extreme food blog Deep End Dining, profiles these and over 50 other delicacies from around the world, ranging from the "not scary, just fat-tastic" Bacon Explosion, to the beloved Marmite/Vegemite spread, to the sadistic dojo tofu. I found a few foods in this book that I genuinely enjoy (mm, sweetbreads), but plenty of others that make me feel squeamish (I'm sorry; I just can't do witchetty grub). Thanks to the good folks at Lonely Planet, we have five (5) copies of to give...

If you've been following along with Food 52's Tournament of Cookbooks (aka "The Piglet"), you'll be pleased to know that the grand champion has been chosen. Final-round judge Nora Ephron calls it for Francis Mallman and Peter Kaminsky's Seven Fires: Grilling the Argentine Way. Sure the book has some problems: Many of the fires in Seven Fires can be set in the wilds of Argentina or, presumably, on a finca, but they cannot be set on driveways, patios or the back lawn. So where is one to set them? I have no idea. And many of the recipes that are meant to be cooked over fire don't contain alternative cooking suggestions. There's a wildly exciting lamb recipe that's cooked in...

[Photograph: nudo-italia.com] One of the best gifts I've probably ever given a friend was adopting a manatee in her name through the Save the Manatee Club. She received an actual photo of Brutus, her new sea cow bundle of joy, his bio, and a super official certificate. [Ed. note: this was very much inspired by manatee enthusiast Robyn.] Our weekend giveaway has nothing to do with manatees but it's another neat opportunity to support an adoptive cause. Nudo is a family-run co-operative of olive groves around a small hilltop village in the Marche region of Italy. Through this one-year adoption ($150), you get to follow the progress of your own tree—the olive variety is up to you—and of course...
