This parody music video, pretty much targeted at the likes of many of us, has been getting a lot of play:

Very well done. Also picked up and elaborated upon by NPR.

On the one hand it's brilliant. On the other hand it doesn't evidence much knowledge of what the extreme-foodie set would find boast-worthy. It's too easy to come up with long menu-item descriptions that sound ridiculous, but that trend subsided a while back. The guy who gets eaten by a photo-blogging bear should at a bare minimum own a copy of Modernist Cuisine and a full set of Gray Kunz Spoons. Extra credit for Nenox knives.

Their production values are very high, and most importantly they are very funny. This was the video that got me interested in them and I've since watched many more of their videos.
