Dance Your Ass Off, Chairman

You do know that "Dance Your Ass Off" is the name of a weight-loss-dancing fusion show, right? Oh wait, its on Oxygen, so its likely that no one knew that. Either way, I'm pretty sure they hit the jackpot when naming it!

The Sincerest form of Korean Taco Flattery?

I don't think this link works, but the author of that post, Aliiiiiiiiiiiiice, comments later on that she was not referring to Calbi:

love, love, love fish tacos! My birthday is actually Cinco de Mayo, so eating tacos of any kind and celebrating with friends definitely conjures up the best memories!

I make a shrimp scampi variation with old bay, mushrooms, and artichokes. Delish.

I make a mean spinach enchilada with almond red sauce! Also good, grilled veggie paninis with provalone or fresh mozz... drool.

Verte, the Two Lipped Non-Dripping Bottle

I've had my eye on these bottles for a while now, but haven't given in to their steep price tag. They don't "recycle" the oil like the Verte bottles, but supposedly all drips are stopped.

Build a Snack Food Stadium For Your Super Bowl Party

lol... "It's important to lay down some paper towels, so that no food comes in contact with your disgusting table top. (Because if you're a person who makes this, you definitely have a disgusting table top.)"

Seriously Delicious Super Bowl Party Giveaway: La Frieda Black Label Burgers

There once were two men named McDonald
And a freaky ole' clown they named Ronald
They sold me some meat
It was not a treat
And I swore I would never eat there again ;)

Seriously Delicious Super Bowl Party Giveaway: La Frieda Black Label Burgers

La Freida's burger is staring at me.
My mouth craves what my eyes now see.
Juicy and rare,
Toppings all spared,
I'd have the best damn football party!

This Baby Loves Butter

The best part of that photo is that the kid is sitting in the shopping cart, in the store! I would have loved to have seen a baby chowin on some butter at my last trip to the supermarket!

Flagel = Flat Bagel

I was taking a weekend in Bucks County Pa. When I stumbled upon a Deli named Bagel Junction in Newtown. Their Flagels and traditional Bagels are as good as any in NYC .The lines to the front door were there for a reason and their prices were a relief compared to NY. This place is like home away from home. If your craving NY food this is the place!

The Worst Seafood Display Ever? Or the Most Brilliant? You Decide

I can relate to paulraphael - I'm a working chef, New York foodie, and worked in gourmet food stores for seven years. The quality of the fish that is available in the wholesale markets is dismal, and by the time it gets to the retailer it is too old to sell. It comes from all over the world, is caught by questionable methods, or farm-raised under often questionable conditions. I don't eat much fish these days unless i catch it.

@greyrussian: Yes. I had DYAO in mind when writing that title. I'm familiar with it because Joel McHale skewers it every week on The Soup.

Who Makes the Best Vanilla Ice Cream?

Silver Moon's Bourbon Vanilla Bean is far superior to any of the vanillas mentioned in the comparison. It is a premium ice cream, and the tiny vanilla bean specks along with the creamy consistency make it my top vote. Silver Moon is a new ice cream from California with all natural ingredients.

My favorite summer recipe is a cold veggie pizza. Not with tomato sauce and stuff, but a croissant roll crust with a cream cheese dill spread on the crust and then broccoli and cauliflower and whatever other veggies you can get cut up small. Finished up with a nice bit of cheddar cheese on top.
