Seriously, though, my wife and I get up at 6:00AM and don't get home until 8:30PM-9:00PM. I feel like I haven't cooked in forever.

As someone who has never worked in a restaurant, or eaten at Michelin Stared restaurant, I found this article fascinating: Dinner and Deception: Serving elaborate meals to the super-rich left me feeling empty

Talked to daycare teacher. This poo poo is something that's making the rounds. I asked her how long it took her to get a sense of taste back. She said two weeks.

Damnit, the vegetarian girlfriend is already completely grossed out by ground beef, I don't need her hearing this poo poo. http://www.consumerreports.org/cro/food/how-safe-is-your-ground-beef quote:All 458 pounds of beef we examined contained bacteria that signified fecal contamination (enterococcus and/or nontoxin-producing E. coli), which can cause blood or urinary tract infections. Almost 20 percent contained C. perfringens, a bacteria that causes almost 1 million cases of food poisoning annually. Ten percent of the samples had a strain of S. aureus bacteria that can produce a toxin that can make you sick. That toxin can’t be destroyed—even with proper cooking.

That's not surprising in the slightest? Cutting up a cow is messy at a butcher, let alone at a plant and when you grind the beef the surface microbes is spread throughout. You'll find bacteria that *can* cause illness in almost everything you at, vegetarian included.

Oh I know that veggies cause more food poisoning then meat. I was just surprised by the 100% contamination, and the indestructible one.

Also, animals like to poo poo on vegetables. And sometimes so do the guys picking them. edit: This should get cilantro chat started: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/fda-ban-mexico-cilantro-contaminated_55b6d57ee4b0a13f9d1a0297

Y'all are real cooks in this thread, so I have a weird question. I'm working on a script where someone ruins a kid's birthday party by bringing in some sort of foody, avant garde or modernist cake that all the kids hate. I'm doing some research and I figured I'd cobble together something like a chipotle chocolate mixture or something modernist with like, individual servings of an absurd flavor combination enhanced with foam. Any off the cuff suggestions as to what you think a cultured person would enjoy that kids would hate?

The cake is a basketball sized spherified chocolate liquid. Someone cuts into it and it spills brown liquid all over everything.
