How odd,...they get rid of 9 things off their menu and turn around and add something new: "Taco Bell’s Toasted Cheddar Chalupa Has Cheese Baked Straight Into The Shell" It hasn't been rolled out to all Taco Bells. I guess it's still in the testing stages. If it shows up at your local Taco Bell, please take one for the team and try it.

Reviving this ancient discussion to post a scene-by-scene recreation of Homer's Food Trip through New Orleans: "Homer, Katrin and Janine Eat Their Way Through New Orleans" They matched the food and even matched Homer's moves. I laughed...and then took an antacid.

I received my weekly email from TASTE (TasteCooking.com) and saw one of the articles was about Jacques Pépin's famous video on how to make an omelette. The article: "When Jacques Pépin Made All the World an Omelet" This is Jacque's video, spoken about in the article: "Learn Jacques Pépin's famous omelet techniques" It's interesting that out of the many videos he made, this one became so well known. I have to tell the truth that when he made the classic french omelette and stirred the eggs in his non-stick skillet with a metallic fork, I cringed. Of course, he knew what he was doing and the fork mixed the egg and didn't scrape the skillet. But I quickly did a search on Amazon for a silicone fork and, yes, they exist. Phew! He may trust his hands but I don't trust mine. Any other Jacques fans out there?

"Here are the crazy scenes from Costco’s opening day in China" It costs less to become a member over there than it does in the United States. But the low prices have the same draw as here. And I think I would enjoy an excursion through their food court. I'd say Costco's debut was a success.

Yes, Uncle Ben's shelf-stable pre-cooked rice only takes 90 seconds in the microwave oven, as well. But it tastes terrible. I'll have to look for Knorr's version in my grocery stores. I'll don't mind that extra 30 seconds of waiting for the VeeTee rice to be heated. The end product is better, IMHO.
