On his Diners and Dives program I caught a segment where he stopped in at a Mexican restaurant in Milwaukee (?)- It was in the Midwest and one of the signature dishes he tried was duck tacos.

GF and the owner made a batch. They showed how to make the marinade and then prepare the dish. I was kinda on board until they finished and the owner put pineapple and some other weird ingredient on the tortilla.

I DID DIG the fact that the tortilla were hand made with blue corn flour added
to them-but the add-ons to the duck made me gag a little.

Pineapple?

At the end of the segment GF begins to praise the owner for his Original Mex Tacos.....
I had to laugh because I don't think I have ever heard of a duck taco.

We kept them as pets, not as an entree.

People do use tortillas as a base for many kinds of tacos-If you can make a sandwich out of it, you can put it into a tortilla and call it a taco!




Anyway,

I love the way that the FN rewrites the menu and doesn't do fact checking or tries to pull a fast one on us all.



Pineapple?
I dig Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives! One of the diners Guy visited for his show was a local joint not far from here, on Route 66 (Dell Rhea's Chicken Basket) ... and I like that he is actually trying to keep some semblance of a family life while he is boppin all over the country in that red car.

I watched the "Next Food Network Star" marathon on New Year's Eve ... not as much fun now that I know the outcome ... I got the impression several times that Jeffrey perceived himself as the one to beat; and talked/performed like he was aware of that. I'm glad Melissa won!
