Worst food/drink trends
The grumpy cupcake poster got me thinking, what other food/drink fads need to stop?
My vote is coconut water. Tastes terrible, and the health benefits are all hype.

Ask a Barista: What Drink Do You Hate Making?
Sorry, but wtf is with this series of what baristas do and don't want to make? I appreciate the "art", but it's a service industry, and the customer is right. I make my own coffee pretty good. No barista required.
The Food Lab: Can I Dry Age Beef At Home?
I was "dry aging" a 20 lb primal strip with fat cap in my beer fridge (just beer, no food) a couple of months back when I saw your tweet saying it rots by 9 days. I was at 9 days at the time and immediately pulled it from the fridge and carved it up. There was no rot; it definitely could have gone longer. After trimming off the fat and exterior crust I was surprised at how moist the meat in the center still was. I think it's worth another try, possibly with a fan placed in the fridge, but I'll look forward to your next article.
How to Identify Oats, Rye, Wheat, Corn, and Rice in Your Beer
The Great American Beer Snob, while normally a reclusive creature, can be seen here displaying the pontification for which is is so highly regarded. After its hubris has been displayed for all to see, it retreats back to its sad dark hole, once again scanning the internets for the next opportunity to be a douche.

Taste Test: Jarred Pasta Sauces from Celebrity Chefs and Restaurants
Open a can of San Marzano tomatoes and make your own sauce. Takes about twenty minutes. About the same time it takes to bring a pot of water to a boil and cook some pasta.

Cablevision drops Food Network, do you care?
Just found out today that Cablevision has dropped the Food Network (and HGTV) from their channel lineup. That used to be my go to channel when I nothing else was on. Now, I couldn't care less. I already emailed Cablevision and requested they add the Fine Living Network in its place.
Will you miss the Food Network and all their prepackaged personalities (and the product endorsements that come with them)?
Dinner Tonight: Sichuan-Style Chicken Noodle Soup
This is the kind of chicken noodle soup I can get into. It's warming and comforting, with hunks of chicken meat and slinky noodles suspended in a rich stock. But this isn't some bland rendition. No, this soup is imbued with the haunting aroma of star anise and cinnamon, and tickled by the numbing sensation of Sichuan pepper. A sprinkling of chopped chile completes this assertive bowl of soup, which comes together surprisingly fast. More

After Kenji's experimentation with burger blends, I did my own. Short ribs, chuck, sirloin, and brisket. They were all great. Plain chuck included. Home ground beef from quality cuts is so much better than anything pre-ground and bought.
Except Pat LaFrieda's I'm sure.
