Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

Alton would never grind up a Kobe steak! Perish the thought!

No but he could give a scientific rationale for why someone might.

eta And I think someone did it on Iron Chef America recently, so he had reason to.

Even in Kobe, the cows (Cows!) have hooves and horns, and meat closer to them.

Do you want some off the hoof, or some off the tusk?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Quote from the sandwich creator:

He said: "I wanted to say 'If money was no object, what would you put in a sandwich?'.

"It wasn't just a case of using the most expensive produce, the flavours are exceptional, they marry really well.

"You get absolutely amazing taste from every level as opposed to a taste explosion."

Whether or not you believe him is a whole separate issue.

Why was I not informed about the banana twinkies?

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Eh, he's probably gilding the lilly. What would he say alternatively? "Oh, it tastes pretty good, but mostly I want a bunch of write-ups and to see what yuppies I can gouge!"

So much of "this is the finest " be it food or clothes or art is hype anyway. Lilly gilding is part of the game.

I can even taste it if I eat just the beef in beef & brocolli, because the flavor's worked it's way into the sauce.

I support you on this. Not with brocoli in particular, though it's right on the border of what I can swallow, but some foods taint everything they touch. Peanuts are the worst. If you stack a chocolate chip cookie on a peanut butter cookie, the chocolate chip cookie will smell like peanut butter and I can't eat it. And I will be very sad as a result.

The seafood conversation made me want lobster. Actually, I've vaguely wanted to have lobster for a while, but I feel much more vehement about it now.
