I used to love Smurf Ice Cream as a kid. They sell it at Sweet Claude's in Cheshire, CT (or at least they used to). I think it was blue raspberry with marshmallows. Perfect for a seven year old with a high tolerance for SWEET.

Lets see, this question really has a few different answers. I would like to interview Alton Brown just because I love his show and want to see what he is like in real life. One of the most interesting people to interviews would be Paula Dean since she is such a character. Finally, if I had to pick someone purely on good looks (and probably good food too) I'd have to choose Giada De'Laurentes.

I would interview Duff Goldman from Ace of Cakes and ask him how he overcame his difficult teen years to become a successful chef and does he have any advice for teens who are struggleing.

Michael Ruhlman:

Tell the truth - how many times have you had to slap Bourdain around?"

or Anthony Bourdain:

"How do you resist shaving Ruhlman's head ala Season 2 Top Chef?"
