I never thought you'd buy ice cream, since gelato is so passe

Living in the hinterlands, as I do, I look longingly to the trend setting metropoli for the oncoming food trends. Apparently, the new cool treat is froyo. Sounds ridiculous, but Pinkberry is all the buzz. Read here for more. I guess I will stay old school with Stacatto and Mio Gelatos.

In a similar vein check out the spat between the Rocco's Restaurant guy and a NYT restaurant reviewer. Be sure to read the review and the response. I don't find waygu all that exciting to begin with, but I'm pretty sure I don't want to eat under 2,000 Swords of Damocles.

Ben and Jerry's has released the new 2007 pints. Looks pretty good actually with Creme Brulee and Cinnamon Bun as stand outs for me.

This dude has the craziest blog banner I have ever seen. Actually the craziest banner I have ever seen. Also the worst name ever. The images....oh the images that are conjured.

Update: In the comments, Kevin has informed me that the disturbing blog title is a reference to his even more disturbing book title. Actually it looks pretty funny in a My Tank is Fight! kind of way.

Thanks for the shout-out.

PS: The blog's title is derived from the title of my book, Scary Spasms in Hairy Chasms: A Panoply of Paeans to Putrescence and a Cornucopia of Corrosive Coprophilia. Currently selling at a very slow trickle on Amazon.

PPS: Gelato is never passe.

Hold on, a book about coprophilia not selling? Surely you kid Kevin.
