Is Panettone the New Fruitcake?
Do not like. :) Here in Italy, though, we have a better alternative - "Pandoro" - pane di oro (bread of gold) which is basically panettone without the candied fruit!! I infinitely prefer it and you can do a lot of things with it - french toast and other desserts.

Pro-HFCS Ads: Do They Bother You?
It would be great if you could update this article with some links to sites that talk about the dangers/effects of HFCS so we can read the other side's opinion, too.

Interview with a Grocery Store Shoplifter
I don't think there's anything wrong with highlighting this story. I think people are overreacting. But, I second a few comments above and say that perhaps it would have been more of value to your readers if the SE editors had added some of their own commentary or tried to start a discussion regarding the article instead of just posting an excerpt and seeing what happens.

Stracciatella: Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Without the Bite
Straciatella is actually NOT made with vanilla ice cream as its base. It's made with "fiordilatte" (flower of milk/milk) flavored ice cream which does not contain vanilla. Vanilla is not that common in Italy (available in an "aroma" form, pre-flavored dessert rising powder, or the actual beans, but expensive) and most gelaterias won't even have vanilla "Vaniglia" as a flavor on its own.
Fiordilatte is a pure, creamy flavor but I do miss vanilla quite a bit. This is why the US ice cream will never taste the same as the Italian gelato...the vanilla!

Pimp That Hershey's Kiss
It's too bad that it's missing the "fat" part at the very bottom from the "kissing" of the machine - this one is too narrow at the bottom. Where's the chocolate engineer when you need them?

Does Anyone Still Eat Chicken-Fried Steak?
I went to Country Inn in Somerville often when I was at university - we would always order the double order and take half of it home - it was so good!! Being in Italy, I do crave chicken friend steak, biscuits & sausage cream gravy sometimes.
