"endless simmer" news and stories

He would be the Super Duper Colossal sandwich from Chick & Ruth's Delly in Annapolis, Maryland. That's according to Endless Simmer, who has selected sandwiches to match all four the Project Runway finalists. As a huge Project Runway enthusiast, I feel qualified to evaluate these selections, and they're pretty dead on. The only one I disagreed with slightly was Jillian's French Dip sandwich from Philippes in L.A.. I would have paired her with something classier, maybe a pesto panini with grilled vegetables or something.

The post is pretty funny if you're familiar with the show. And it seems that I've recently found myself fascinated by attempts to describe people in terms of food -- as you can probably tell from this and my Obama Roll post. It has me wondering what food I would be. Probably curry chicken salad with grapes. Or maybe I just think that because it's one of my favorite foods. What would you be?

I introduced a friend to the joy of roasted Brussels Sprouts last night and so I have the mini-cabbages on the brain a bit. I do believe that is why this shot, of a flower-like sprout by Endless Simmer (also posted here), called to me and demanded to be posted today.

These days, food is always in the news. From canned food recalls to the folks who only eat local foods to the stars of the Food Network, we are a country obsessed with what we eat. It should come as no surprise then that the folks over at Endless Simmer are trying to determine, out of all the food celebrities (both those who deserve their notoriety and those who are riding on an extended 15 minutes) who is the Eater of the Year.

The finalists include competitive eater Joey Chestnut, the Berkeley Four who invented the word Locavore, daring eater and chef Anthony Bourdain, the very alluring Padma Lakshmi, a chocolate Jesus and former VP Al Gore. The question now is, who do you think is the Eater of the Year? Follow that link to head over to Endless Simmer and cast your vote. However, if you think that an important eater is missing from the list, tell us about it in the comments!
