The Things That Keep Me From Going Vegetarian:

maple bacon
Meat Lovers' pizza from Pizza Hut
Big Macs

Now this is a form of vegetarianism I can get behind!

Shirt of the Day: Yesterday's Lunch

Steph Auteri — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 16:06:00 GMT

Yesterday was the most disgusting day ever. I spent at least eight hours of it on the couch, watching the Game Show Network*, picking at Doritos, cheddar-flavored Chex Mix, cookies, and doughnuts. This made me feel ill, yet I still followed it up with a mudslide and cheddar bacon sliders at TGIFridays. By the end of the day, I expected to vomit all over myself at any moment.

You feeling just as proud of your day of gluttony?

Wear your stomach on your sleeve! (Or...um...on your stomach...)

*The Game Show Network was like a revelation...especially Bingo America, during which you can win $50 merely for sitting on your fat ass and watching. I'm hooked.

The Testicles Cookbook - Cooking with Balls

Sorry, I hope you already ate lunch. When Shaun posted about the semen cookbook last week, I thought it couldn't get any worse. But it can and it has, as evidenced by "The Testicles Cookbook - Cooking with Balls." Recipes include testicled versions of your favorites, like Testicle Pizza, Testicle Goulash and White Wine Testicles.

Love It or Leave It? Eat Me

Or rather, eat off me, in the style of Nyotaimori, that controversial Japanese tradition of serving sushi on a naked women.

These plates were designed by Japanese designer Hiroshi Tsunoda.

Me? I'm as offended by these as I am by the original dining tradition. What do you think?

Quick Tip of the Day: Eating Healthy Is Easy

Diana Vilibert — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 12:30:00 GMT

Eating healthy isn't always easy, unless you happen to have one of thses food pyramid lunch boxes. Now there won't be any more confusion about what "eat sparingly" means when it comes to Krispy Kreme doughnuts.
