Video: The Freshman 15
"For the life of me I cannot remember / What made me think that Easy Mac was a healthy midnight snack." This lamentation over typical college junk food and more in The Freshman 15, College Humor's spoof of the Verve Pipe's The Freshmen. If you gained the Freshman 15, relive the magic with this music video. If you're just starting college, beware. Watch the video after the jump....One Ring Zero's Recipe Music Project
[Image: orzrecipeproject.tumblr.com] Michael Hearst of the band One Ring Zero has already demonstrated his skills for mixing food and music in his Songs for Ice Cream Trucks album. Now he's jamming about chefs' favorite recipes. If you're into the edgier rock stuff, go with Chris Cosentino's Brain and Eggs and for more Bohemian polka-esque sounds, try Mario Batali's Spaghetti with Sweet 100 Tomatoes. The lyrics are not trying to rhyme or be too soulful—it's just the recipe verbatim, which is pretty awesome. Not enough lyrics involve "use small, firm organic pumpkins or winter squashes."

Why eat a hot dog when you can transform it into a wind instrument? All you need is a freezer and a drill. Simply pop the wiener into the freezer and "once it is rock hard" (the video's words, not mine) slip a paper pattern on top with the strategically drawn holes and drill through them. The video reassures any anti-food wasters that excess wiener dregs, a natural byproduct after drilling, can be saved for future uses. The meatflute tutorial, after the jump....Video: Dobroque, a Dobro Made from a Kettle Grill

Note: On Mondays, one of our various Market Scene correspondents checks in with what's fresh at farmstands, what's coming up, and what you better get while the gettin's good. Take us to market, Jen! [Okra soldiers from Short Night Farm; Jen Maiser] I am addicted to attending farmers' markets. The most recent proof was over the weekend: I had no intention of shopping for food yet I found myself wandering through the Divisadero Farmers' Market in San Francisco after breakfast. Though I am going out of town and didn't need anything in my fridge, I found myself buying just a bit of okra, just one nectarine, and just a couple tomatoes like an addict who needs a fix. I mentioned...Video: 'Don't You Put It In Your Mouth' PSA
If anyone can educate children to not put random things in their mouths, it's a singing duo of fuzzy, blue, demonic-looking puppets who don't have legs. Their message? If you want to put something in your mouth and you're not sure what it is, don't eat it unless a loved one tells you it's OK. And if for some reason you don't trust the words of the Blue Demon Siblings, the skinny lion puppet at the end should send the message home. Watch the video after the jump....New Orleans Jazz Trumpeter Kermit Ruffins Smokes 'Cue for Fans
Photograph from dsb nola on Flickr From Putumayo World Music, in an interview with Kermit Ruffins, trumpeter in the Rebirth Brass Band and Barbecue Swingers: So you originally were barbecuing to have some hot food at the [Barbecue Swingers] shows, then the idea just caught on? Yep, the tailgating started [it] all. I would cook hot sausage for the guys during break time, and whatever was left over, we would give it to the fans. Then I bought a big grill and started cooking for everyone, still up [to] today! Sounds like my kind of show. [via Boing Boing]...Video: The Fast Food Song
I first head the Fast Food Song--at least, the "A-Pizza Hut! A Pizza Hut!" part of it--at summer camp, where it wasn't at all unusual to belt nonsensical songs or break into dance. But I had no idea that in 2003, this version by the Fast Food Rockers reached #2 on the British pop charts. The music video is, er, colorful. Though some parts of their dance are identical to ours (of course you flap your wings when you say "Kentucky Fried Chicken!") there's a lot more to scratch your head about. What's with those shoulder pads? Do fast-food servers really wear corsets? And why on earth is there a big blue dog following them around? Decide for yourself,...Critic-Turned-Cook Loves The Sounds Of The Kitchen
Critic Turned Cook follows former Seattle Post-Intelligencer food critic Leslie Kelly on her journey away from the keyboard and into the kitchen. Take it away, Leslie! Photograph from Yelp.com One of the things I love best about being in restaurant kitchens is the music that gets cranked in the back, the beat that motivatives like a double espresso. It's easy to go faster when you're chopping in time. Each of the kitchens in which I've worked has its own soundtrack. At Lola, it was hardcore. In the Tom Douglas pastry kitchen, it was a wild iPod shuffle mix worthy of inspiring dance moves. It cracked me up when "Beat It" came on as I was standing over a giant Hobart...Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
