chuck would NEVER go for THIS SHITE!!!
Scientists 'grow' meat in laboratory
By Nick BrittenResearchers in the Netherlands have created what was described as soggy pork and are now investigating ways to improve the muscle tissue in the hope that people will one day want to eat it.
No one has yet tasted the product, but it is believed the artificial meat could be on sale within five years..........

hey chuck, i didn't know this
and even though i am vegan, i use a TON o' liquid smoke. i never knew what the hell it actually WAS though. this is rather good news!
The Secret of Liquid Smoke
The secret: It's not the creepy chemical additive you thought. A couple of weekends ago, I caught an episode of the public radio show "The Splendid Table" with soothingly voiced chef Lynne Rossetto Kasper. The topic was BBQ and I was shocked (Shocked!) to hear Lynne* and her guest recommend liquid smoke as the key to great crockpot pulled pork. In fact, Lynne seemed pretty surprised to hear herself suggest it.
But the truth, my friends, is that sometimes there is a little truth in advertising. And liquid smoke is one of those times.
*We're on a first-name basis like that. In my imagination.
You can be forgiven for wrongfully accusing liquid smoke of nefarious fakey toxic chemicalness. Even chemists have been confused on this one. Back in June, Slashfood interviewed NYU chemistry professor Kent Kirshenbaum, who--like you, me, Lynne Rossetto Kasper and everyone we know--had believed the worst about this cheap, sketchy sounding liquid............

chuck, you didn't think i forgot about you did you?
well i didn't! look what i just came across. guess where? in one of those commie male bashing femy nest blog thingies
But Why Bacon?"
A few weeks ago, as she was showing off her newly crocheted piece of bacon, my cousin proclaimed:’Bacon: It’s the New Cupcake.’ As you may have noticed, cupcakes have been a huge trend in recent years. But my cousin was right. Lately, those adorable morsels (whose popularity is most commonly credited by Magnolia Bakery’s appearance on Sex and the City) seem to be garnering some competition in our quest for quirky culinary obsessions.
It started innocently enough. My first introduction to out-of-the-box bacon was Vosge’s Mo’s Bacon Bar , and most connoisseurs of the trend agree that this subtly infused chocolate bar was the gateway drug to the bacon craze. After that, I began to notice that bacon was having a much greater presence in the foodie sphere. But it didn’t seem that strange because it was bacon as bacon should be. You know, like on burgers, breakfasts and BLTs. There were informative discussions on how to best cook bacon or even clubs where bacon lovers could unite (yes,there is more than one ) that are, while a bit eccentric, perfectly fine, right?..............

yes chuck, it is indeed true
there IS a bacon beer
By Jennifer 8. Lee
Updated, 2:25 p.m. | There seems to be no end of experimentation and obsession with all things bacon, and people, both breathing ones and the animated variety, seem to like it.
There’s chocolate-covered bacon, the Bacon Explosion (heart attack in a bundle), bacon ice cream, bacon jam and bacon vodka.
People, wistfully, have been fantasizing about a bacon beer.
Brewers are obliging. Garrett Oliver of the Brooklyn Brewery has created limited quantities of bacon beer. And in Chicago, David Burke’s Primehouse at the James Hotel is serving bacon beer brewed by the executive chef, Rick Gresh, as part of a beer pairing menu. In Washington State, the Front Street Ale House on San Juan Island began offering a bacon beer on tap in spring of 2008. ......pic: Brooklyn Brewery

chuck, i never would have believed this
the flaming bacon lance of death (wow)
from Theo Gray's book "Mad Science"
...........
Yesterday, I blogged about the release of Popular Science columnist Theo Gray's new book, MAD SCIENCE.
In today's episode of Boing Boing Video, a collaboration with PopSci, we debut the world-premiere of the first video documenting the sort of experiments you'll find in this book -- in which Theo cuts steel with bacon. It's a FLAMING BACON LANCE OF DEATH.
Yes, that's right, using nothing but bacon -- okay, prosciutto -- and an air hose, Mr. Gray constructs a high performance thermic lance that seriously cuts sheet metal.
In this video, you'll also see a purely VEGAN THERMIC LANCE built from one cucumber and several dozen thin vegetable-oil coated breadsticks. (Tip: the performance is all about the oil). This hotrod burns fast and furious, but does not last long enough to initiate a cut in steel sheet. The flame front travels towards the back of the cucumber and endangers the operator when it reaches the rubber connector.............
