Braille Burgers At Wimpy [Ideas In Awesome]

For some unexplained reason, blindness and food have popped up a couple of times in my life over the past few weeks.  It started when I happened upon a couple of blind foodies who romp around New York City.  This AM, through a series of unexplained link clicks, I hit upon this little bit of …

Bad Ass Blind Foodies: Food Criticism Like You’ve Never Seen

Here’s a little video from Tommy Edison, a blind guy who shows us once again that blind people really don’t have the limitations many think they do!

At TEDx Atlanta, Greg Best, …

Moto’s Homaro Cantu & Ben Roche Talk Sustainable Food Science

When discussions of deconstructed food and molecular gastronomy occur, rarely do concepts like sustainability come to mind.  People (like me), who eat food from the admittedly quirky chefs that make these whacky concoctions, are almost always focused on the hedonistic experience of this type of consumption.  This is obviously not lost on Homaro Cantu and …

Martini Assures Us That Luck Is An Attitude

Luck is an attitude … and this little “what if” commercial shows why.   Why did I post this on a food blog?
