Comment of the Day: Always Be Prepared
"Good thing that 'fish semen' tag is created now. Just in case." —njgood, on Chichi's cod milt recipe...Video: How to Make Charles Phoenix's Cherpumple, the Monster Pie-Cake
It was only a matter of time before somebody would come along with the dessert version of turducken, and that somebody was Charles Phoenix. Already known for his kitschy pop culture humor, Phoenix here creates a monster of a three-layered dessert where each layer (CHERry, PUMpkin, and apPLE pie) is also baked inside a cake mix (white, yellow, and spice, respectively). Judging by the faces of the mechanics who got to try a freshly-baked Cherpumple (fresh from a pink vintage stove at The Antique Stove Shop in Ventura, California) it's sure worth a try. And if one of those pie flavors just ain't your thing, think of all the possibilities—like Cherpumpbarb (with rhubarb!). Watch the video, after the jump....Video: Marks & Spencer Christmas Food Commercial (2006)
"Lincolnshire red cabbage with apple and cranberries, slow braised in red wine and tawny port sauce." In print, that doesn't sound particularly tantalizing. Spoken by a breathy British female narrator over slow-motion footage of the cabbage being dropped out of a spoon, though, is another matter. This commercial from British retailer Marks & Spencer is probably the most food-porny Christmas-related video I've ever seen. Watch the video after the jump....Christmas Cards from 'Food Network Humor'
And goodwill toward men, y'all! [Card: Food Network Humor] LOL. Oh, boy. Food Network Humor's Food Network Christmas cards. See also: "Oh Come All Ye Flay-ful." [via @christellar]...Flowchart: 'What Candy Should I Eat?'
Another Monday, another flowchart from Eating the Road. This time, Candy Edition. It's probably EtR's longest and most intense chart yet, with plenty of humorous decision points: "Were you searching in the couch cushions?" "Do you like eating toothpaste?" My one quibble with it is that it asks if you like "real" licorice and then directs you to black Red Vines. That ain't real licorice!...What Not to Get Someone for the Holidays
Jillian of Food Network Humor rounds up some of the gifts that you should not buy, unless you want to lose friends. Among them: a Paula Deen Makes Pot Roast doll ("Why is that pot roast growing out her stomach? It looks like a tumor I saw on ER once.") and KFC's Colonel Sanders salt and pepper shakers. For less cringe-inspiring gifts, check out some of our recommendations here. Related: Talk: Worst Foodie Gift Ever?...Video: How to Make the Bloody Bacon and Cheese
From Alie and Georgie, the ladies who brought you The McNuggetini and The Ham Daiquiri, comes The Bloody Bacon and Cheese, a cocktail that combines "the comfort of condensed tomato soup with the warmth of hard alcohol." Condensed tomato soup flavored with garlic salt, pepper, and horseradish is mixed with sun dried tomato-infused vodka and presented in a glass rimmed with tomato soup-bound fried bacon bits. And don't forget about the final garnish: grilled cheese sandwich wedges. Watch the video after the jump....Comment of the Day: Good Apps?

[Photograph: pauladeen.com] The latest installment of McSweeney's "Short Imagined Monologues" series gives us an idea of what a pole-dancing lesson with Paula Deen might be like: OK now, you're going to grab on to your pole about head-height, swing yourselves out and WRAP your body around the pole—that's right, just wrap yourself around it like a slice of bacon 'round an ear of sweet corn. Good, y'all! Now kick up that outside leg and float around to the ground ... nice and light, just like you're folding mayonnaise into sour cream. That's it!
