Why didn’t anyone tell me about the existence of salmon bacon!!!!!??????
You can order it here.
I know it’s random. I was just wondering if there was an alternative to turkey bacon – something even healthier – like some sort of fish bacon. Dr. Fiancee then suggested I Google it; and there it was!
Texan third-grader gets one week’s detention for possession of one single Jolly Rancher candy.
This war on child obesity gets stupider every day. A week’s detention for a piece of candy is overkill any way you look at it; but ironically this poor kid would have likely fared better if she had been caught carrying a 1/4 pound’s worth of pot, or tagging, or indulged in criminal mischief where the damage is less than $500.
No way to teach healthy eating habits, any way you look at it…

Thanks to Dr. Fiancee for the tip. Dr. Fiancee blogs about law enforcement and national security news at CulperRing355.
She’s a great cook and she feeds me, so be nice to her and pay her blog a visit.

Is it just me or are people getting more inventive with bacon in recent years? Anyway, who cares? I’m just glad it’s happening: Bacon Bourbon Caramel Corn.

I haven’t been following this story very closely, but I have the feeling environmentalism has something to do with it…

I had some errands to run after church this evening, but I got so hungry I just had to make a stop.
Nobel Peace Prize winner, father of the “Green Revolution”, savior of millions of human lives, worldwide.
No, it’s not Al Gore. It’s someone who really is all of the above: Dr. Norman Borlaug, who has passed away.
I learned about him for the first time in the WSJ years ago. And his accomplishments just blew me away. In fact, he may have saved my parents’lives, since one of his first achievements was realized in Mexico. Fittingly, he received our nation’s largest civilian honor not long ago.
Dr. Norman Borlaug, rest in peace.

Looks like the Kogi vans have company…
So a few days ago, Dr. Fiancee – who likes to keep track of criminal and terrorist organizations here – read on the International Herald Tribune about an enterprising Korean chef in L.A. who’s emerged as a local cult hit with his Mexi-Korean fusion cooking.
One of the coolest things about this chef’s story is how he got around the problem of how expensive it is to open a restaurant in L.A: he mostly operates out of two vans that roam the L.A. area, advertising their changing locations via Twitter.
One of the vans was parked near us some nights ago, and we went out to check it out. Very tasty.
UPDATE: Some pics below. The line was long, but manageable when we got there. We were in line for about an hour before we could order.
