SkyMall Monday: Protein Ketchup

SkyMall Monday: Protein Ketchup Nov 7th, 2011 at 1:00PM: The other day, while relaxing in SkyMall Monday headquarters, I was about to enjoy a juicy hamburger with some french fries when an alarm went off in my brain. I realized that a burger and fries was not a very nutritious meal. Here I am, trying to get in shape for my wedding and I'm denying my body what it really needs. I immediately put the burger down and thought about what I could do ...

Fine dining in Antwerp

Fine dining in Antwerp Nov 3rd, 2011 at 12:00PM: For such a small country, Belgium certainly has contributed to world cuisine. French fries, for example, are actually Belgian, making that whole "freedom fries" movement back in 2003 even stupider than it appeared. They also gave us Belgian waffles, although over here they're called "Brussels waffles" after the capital. And let's not forget about Belgian chocolate! I've been exploring Antwerp, ...

Water park shut down because of burgers, fries, mozzarella

Water park shut down because of burgers, fries, mozzarella Aug 1st, 2010 at 4:30PM: Is it a pool or an aquatic buffet? Vandals made a mess of the Waterworks Waterpark in Prince William County, Virginia, and law enforcement is ready to slap the cuffs on someone. Hamburger patties, fries and pretzels were tossed into the pool, but the nastiest bit was smearing mozzarella cheese on the water slide. Of course, you wouldn't want to put any of this near your lips. The culinary ...

Let freedom (and its fries) ring!

Let freedom (and its fries) ring! Mar 16th, 2010 at 4:30PM: I recently took a trip up to Cape Cod for a friend's wedding. It was my first time in the area and, as I'm wont to do, I intended to eat my way through the seaside towns, stopping at roadside shacks for lobster rolls and fried seafood goodness. So I pulled into the first restaurant I saw: Marc Anthony's in Onset. It was midday and the checkered table cloth-clad joint was awash in Red Sox ...

Felony Franks and other restaurants help ex-cons help you

Felony Franks and other restaurants help ex-cons help you Oct 16th, 2009 at 8:00AM: digg_url = 'http://digg.com/food_drink/Felony_Franks_and_other_restaurants_help_ex_cons_help_you'; If nobody hires ex-cons, then we shouldn't be shocked when they return to lives of crime. So, for the good of Chicago, go pick up a couple of hotdogs at Felony Franks. James Andrews, who owns the West Side dog joint, makes it a point to hire people who have done time, seeing it as a service to a ...

Pyongyang gets a "taste" of capitalism

Pyongyang gets a Aug 6th, 2009 at 2:00PM: North Korea, the reclusive Communist state, is always reluctant to try something new. The government controls information tightly, as anyone who has read updates from the Korea Central News Agency can see. But, occasionally, a fissure forms in the barriers that separate the most remote country on Earth from the rest of the world. And now, the people who are slowly developing a taste for pizza and ...
