Well Mr. Fast Food, Here's all my Fingers (makes a fist), As for You, Mr. Marketing Department, here's just the middle one.

Words:

Here's all my fingers, Mr. fast food (makes a fist). As for you, Mr. Marketing Department, here's just the middle one."

Message from Me:

If you've never read Anthony Bourdain, you are indeed missing something in your life. Tony, or as my French friends call him, "Tuh-Nee," left the world a more informed, entertained, and curious place to explore via food, culture, and the underworld of cooking- from Vietnam street carts to Michelin-starred cuisine.  He also makes it near-impossible just to put his damn books down and go to sleep!

But, one of the best things Tony left for you, a fellow huble seeker of the truth, is his excellent essay on what meat once was vs the monstrosity that now parades as meat on your plate, or dare I say, between your buns.

No long post today. Just a link to the late, great, and sorely missed Anthony Bourdain's mouth-watering Book, Medium Raw. Turn your hymnals to chapter nine, Meat.

Password= MEAT
