Though I love the fact that you used the term tromp l'oeil, it would probably only be accurate if when you reached out to touch this it turned out to be a two-dimensional image pretending to be pudding and cinnamon cake pretending to be eggs and toast..
That said, I don't really know how to pronounce the term tromp l'oeil, and I can never spell it right (had to check it three times before posting this). :\
It sounds yummy regardless!

ZOMG WHY DO YOU TORTURE ME?!
Actually, thanks for the reminder-- it's been a while since I had one and although I knew I was missing something I couldn't pinpoint it until now.
Top Ten Crazy Asian Pizza Crusts
I'd like to try the Bulgogi pizza on Hannah Bae's Flickr.
And I love that they serve what looks like pickles on the side! :D
Excellent, excellent article.

Whoa!
Hahahaha... it's amazing that a country with a name so close to sounding like "hungry" has such unappetizing food choices (ie. blood pudding).

There is a little bit of a food motif in the series; very minor, but amusing. I'd agree with Allen that it's a really good show. I was a bit skeptical at first, but after all the goofiness of the first couple episodes it turns out to be quite moving and a bit profound.
Ahaaaa I like Karen Resta's comparisons. My description would be "one is very Czech, one is very Japanese". Hers is a bit more poetic. :D

Made it tonight! It was delicious, I made them with Kewpie and it was great! I did the rice layer, than did kewpie and than a layer of furikake. The Kewpie made it less salty.. especially if you just use regular ol' Spam!

@Bigany - I take it you've not tried a Spam musubi done the right way in the right setting; coming right out of the ocean, after being out for serveral hours swimming/snorkeling/surfing, and reaching for a Spam musubi. It's a quick, simple snack that's not messy and can be carried around/left anywhere. The only rubbish is the tiny scrunched up plastic wrap. No plates or utensils. =)

How to Make Spam Musubi
no matter how you slice it, what you cook it in, how you flavor it and what you wrap it in, spam is still basically spam: and although it maybe be tasty it's still garbage food. it's high fat, high salt , well let's take a look:
# Ingredients:
* Chopped pork shoulder meat with ham meat added.
* Salt (for binding, flavour, and firmness)
* Water (to help in mixing)
* Sugar (for flavour)
* Sodium Nitrite (for colour and as a preservative)
# Nutrition Information For SPAM (original style):
* Calories Per Serving: 170
* Calories Per Serving From Fat: 140
* Serving Size: 2 oz.
* Servings Per Container: 6 (large) or 3.5 (small)
* Total Fat: 16g
* Saturated Fat: 6g
* Cholesterol: 40mg
* Sodium: 750mg
* Total Carbohydrates: 0g
* Fiber: 0g
* Sugars: 0g
* Proteins: 7g
* Vitamin A: 0%
* Vitamin C: 0%
* Calcium: 0%
* Iron: 2%
so a large can of spam has 1100+ caleries, tons of salt, saturated fat and not much that's 'good' for you. it's 30 cal of protein and 140 cal of fat. Eat a steak it you want meat or ham or almost anything but enough of this stuff will make your arteries look like a clogged drain pipe.

My musubi press just arrived! Sigh. I'm crazed this week, but am totally doing up a musubi 'do this weekend. I will give it to people and not tell them what the meat product is. Because yeah @Cassaendra, people just don't get it. And they won't even try the stuff because it's (yech) spam (double yech). I actually sent this article to a couple of friends, hoping the very most lovely pictures would hold sway, but nada. Zero bites. Luckily, I have one friend, hapa haole, who loves the stuff. We make fun of non-believers often.
