What the heck is vegetarian chorizo?? I can't wait to hear what it's like. I bought some chorizo yesterday and it's delicious!!

For the record, Richard. Food knowledge and trivia must be on the same level of expertise for me. You really know alot more about food than most people.

Aaron McCargo today was over the top again. I have to send an email to FN about this. They've taken away that wholesome goodness.

I'm still in love with Mr. Pat Neely.

I watched the Ultimate Recipe Challenge tonight. The judge in the middle was in a very arrogant mood tonight wasn't he?
The lady that made the grapefruit cake had bad luck written all over her. I'm surprised they aired that. After all, she left the leavening out of her cake??? I felt sorry for her all the way around. Poor thing.

Question for anybody that can answer it: what is with Booby Flake and the blue corn meal pancakes? Do people in other parts of the country typically use corn meal in pancakes or is it a BF thing?
Has anybody had pancakes with corn meal?

Also: Is it possible to make polenta or grits out of regular corn meal. Is grits just a Southern dish? When I lived in Salt Lake City, I asked the Albertson's clerk where the grits were. He said, "Where what is?" He had no idea what grits were.

Ingrid Hoffman was on early this morning, Richard. Simply Delicioso. I like the food she makes almost always.
