Where should we eat in The Cook Islands?

You have a point, but you never know if you're going to wind up in some crappy overpriced tourist restaurant, especially on an island that has to import so much...

Brooklyn Man Attempts to Eat Nothing But Pizza in Month of April

I'm pretty sure I did that for a few months in college, but not on purpose.

Are You A Fan of Food Souvenirs?

Last time I was in Chicago, I brought home a half-baked Giordano's pizza. It wasn't a souvenir for very long since I ate it that night, but it was damn worth it. Aside from that, the only real souvenirs I ever get when I travel are bottles of Fanta. I have a great collection ranging from Argentina to Turkey to the Philippines (where it's actually called Royal). Each is unique because it has the local language on it, but also because each country has its own special flavors. In Japan they have Melon Fanta, in China they have Icy Orange, and in Israel have a flavor called Shokata. The range of flavors is quite impressive and the collection never lets me down.

Poll: Food Terms You Should Stop Using in 2010

Can we stop saying "gamey"? This is a terrible word and I'm pretty sure everyone just uses this when they want to say "tough," however, you would never describe a tough cut of beef as gamey. Besides, gamey seems to give off a negative vibe, but game meats are some of the best.

The Best Potatoes for Latkes

usually i use russet potatoes, but this year i found some yukon gold at a farmer's market and decided to test them out. i found they were no different in taste or texture or anything. also, the best topping for latkes is apple sauce.

That's Nuts: Is Kung Pao Chicken Authentic?

Agreed with BD. Kung Pao chicken in China is definitely where it's at. Although a lot of the components are similar, it tastes quite different in China. I lived in Shanghai for a while and the Kung Pao chicken from neighborhood restaurants were the best. I felt silly telling people that Kung Pao chicken was my favorite Chinese dish in China, but it really is different enough that I didn't feel uncultured in saying so.

What's your favorite food when drunk?

Taco Bell, ramen, street food or an entire pizza. If someone is sober enough to drive, we're going to Taco Bell. If I'm wandering the streets of Japan, it's ramen. If I'm wandering the streets of China, it's street food. Finally, if I'm drunk and have no where to walk and no one to drive me, I want the greasiest pizza that will deliver.

Guide to Sliders in Northern New Jersey

Love the article. I'm originally from Detroit and they have quite the slider scene, including Hunter House, Greene's and Bates. I moved to LA and found that any time I order a slider, I am given a disappointing mini-hamburger. This is how sliders should be: Greene's

Should Hot Dogs Carry Warning Labels?

Eating anything unhealthy every day increases risk of...death! Be it by cancer or heart disease, it's always a good idea to balance unhealthy foods with either healthy foods or...exercise! Tell those fatty kids to get off their asses.
