erin - If you read some of the comments on the "hottest new accessory" post you've linked to, you'll see that your readers don't particularly enjoy seeing objectified female bodies covered in raw meat on a site that purports to be about eating. this "chick" finds the metaphor offensive and in very bad taste.
my local favorite is helios (greek) in park slope
If I use frozen raspberries, is there a danger of sogginess from the extra water? What's the best way to defrost and de-sog them? Any suggestions welcome.. :)
I love a classic egg and cheese from the corner deli.
Amanda, will you clue us in on how you store and use the frozen corn? I'm intrigued!
Where *does* one get a good rye bread these days? I was watching Seinfeld last night and the scene in a Jewish bakery (challah bread, marbled rye in the background) made me anxious to visit one soon.
Adam, don't disclose these secrets! But I strongly second your vote.
What's the word from Serious Eaters about Morimoto?
The best fish I have ever eaten was at Esca - it was a branzino from Italy that was cooked in a thick sea salt crust. I would love to do it myself someday!
i think this work is really disturbing... and her interview completely skims the surface.
"That which gives me pleasure one minute, causes guilt the next. I am surprised at how much I like the products I consume, but, if you stop for one second to think about it, it’s absurd. Yet, you can’t stop. [The work] is not a criticism it’s just an exaggeration of my own reality."
Um, how about a criticism? The ambivalent and destructive relationship with food that many experience (and society promotes, especially for women) is amplified in these photos - not to mention a sick glorification ("gorgeous") of violent imagery and unconscious women- let's just say I'm not satisfied by her explanation, nor the Serious Eats coverage. Robyn, there's a bit of analysis missing on your part!
I think Sabrina needs to get her panties out of the wad they're in. I'm a female, a 'chick' if you will, and I love the picture and get the humor. I also enjoy the site for the eats but come on, funny is funny. Too much seriousness will cause your head to explode Sabrina.
Oh, please, y'all... it's just plain silly and hilarious.
I'm as ardent a feminist as you'll find on the planet, and I TOTALLY embrace my love of bacon, bawdiness and "bwah-hah-hah" (which are pretty much the three things this photo celebrates).
As a guy who likes both bacon and boobs, this seems a little "ew" to me. The bacon is raw, after all, which screams 'bacteria' and 'food poisoning'. Not what I want associated with food or boobs at all.
So Good - Hahahahah thank you! As a woman I do not find it offensive, c'mon girls, it's funny!
Pizza, pork, and pearls?
If only they had taken the time to make a Hershey's Kiss necklace. :(
For those still interested in this topic.
Three things have been running through my mind since I saw this. First, naturally, was Gordie's incident last year where he came close to toasting his nuggets. If only he had been wearing bacon briefs!
Second is that the design could be made more appealing. The lines are not as good as they could be.
Third, a quote from GS Albee:
Zee always went naked in the house, except for the brassiere she wore when it was her turn to get dinner. Once, cooking French-fried potatoes in a kettle of boiling fat, she had come within an inch of crisping her most striking features.
A broccoli floret bra would be rather cute, too, made with the right lines of course.
@So Good - I think you're my hero.
The other has been asking for a bacon bra as long as we've been together. I'm just disappointed someone got to it before we did.
Would you ever, ever see a description of say, men's bacon briefs in the same way? I think not.
That's because most people (and by people we mean women) would much rather see a man in chocolate briefs, not bacon...
I think it's funny. But it would be even funnier if the bra were made from cooked bacon -- sort of molded? It would remind me of one of those ultra rigid torpedo-like bras from the 40s... and the excited male could eat it up without removing it for cooking first...
I am deeply offended by the way this post is objectifying bacon. You are treating bacon as nothing more than a piece of meat.
