Sneaky, Smaller Beer Pints Ripping You Off

You could always order a beer with a higher alcohol content. Or you could consider quality over quantity.

Ikea Hack: Free Ferry and Bus Service Will Give Easy Access to Red Hook Ball Field Vendors

FastFood Critic: Ikea does make boats, but they are shoddy and flimsy. You can usually find an old beat up one the sidewalk on garbage day. Can't beat that lingonberry drink, though.

McDonald's Says Eat More Chicken For Breakfast

The radio ads for these things call it a "buttery tasting biscuit" which I assume is the same as "butter flavored topping" in movie theaters.

Bourdain Rants About the Food Network

RichardCrystal, I'm in between on Bourdain. While I think he's very smart, clever, funny and a hardworker, I also think he's not a top chef and there are some parts of his personality are too contrived. Like Poochie on "The Simpsons". Anyone else notice that "No Reservations" has become less about food and more about local crazies in foreign countries?

Dinner Tonight: Bourdain's Mushroom Soup

Dinner Tonight: Bourdain's Mushroom Soup

Blake, I agree with you about Bourdain. He really isn't known for his cooking skills as much as he is for his personality. And I also agree with you that roasting a chicken is an art. Any housewife can roast a chicken, but it takes a keen cook to get the skin crisp and the meat moist and tender.

AddiE: I'm assuming that it freezes really well as cooked mushrooms do well in the freezer.

About Chewy

Website: http://www.chewfood.com

Location: Brooklyn, NY

About: I'm a kickass linecook who curses like a truck driver and am all around awesome to the max. Also, I get jokes.

Favorite foods: Mushrooms, all seafoods, broccoli rabe, a perfect roast chicken, creme brulee, soups, steak, salads full of stuff and things, chippos. Um, pretty much everything except for bitter melon. I don't understand the grapefruit and call shenanigans on it.

Last bite on earth: Don't get me started.
