Double Down Throwdown: Our Homemade Version Takes on KFC's

Great, now make it again in under 2 minutes and for less than $5.

'Gourmet' Magazine: 1941–2009

Meh, it was becoming more foodie lifestyle mag than anything else. I liked the recipes well enough, but the writing was pretty terrible.

Paula Deen Is Trying to Kill Us, With Cookware!

The one problem I've had with cast iron is that newer stuff seems to have a rougher profile than older and therefore slightly stickier.

Hispanic Foods Moving Out of the 'Ethnic Aisle'

Damn, I guess that means they're going to be less of a bargain now too.

Serious Heat: Where Do You Buy Your Spices?

I go to Punjab Groceries and Halal Meat, around the corner from my house in Baltimore.

Dinner Tonight: Tortilla Espanola

This month's Cooks Illustrated has a version using less oil. Haven't tried it yet, but their recipes are usually pretty solid.

Baltimore Cheap Eats?

Dizzy Issie's in Remington. Solid food, cheap drinks.

Holy Frijoles in Hampden is also dead cheap, although it's not authentic Mexican and all the waiters are total hipsters.

There's also good Korean BBQ at Jong Kak on 20th. The neighborhood can be a little sketchy at night, but I've never had trouble. Just don't leave your GPS in the car.

Shouldn't Costco Take Food Stamps?

Meh, I don't feel too strongly about it either way. If the profit they make from the new business is greater than the cost of upgrading their payment system to accept food stamps, then it would seem to make business sense. I'm not so sure it's a serious social justice issue. But I am sure that the middle name "8" is deeply stupid.

Ed Levine's Questionable Pizza Practices: Do You Leave Your Pies Out Overnight? For Two Nights?

Well, none of the traditional pizza ingredients (bread, cheese, tomatoes, pepperoni) go off in under a couple days unrefrigerated, so I don't see the problem. Also, having been heated to high temperatures and kept relatively covered, it's not likely to be too contaminated.
