Drake Hotel Watermelon Eating Contest

I totally forgot to post this little video I made from 86’d last Monday.  Check ‘er out!

A Loving, Cranky, Morning-After Homage to My Drunk Kitchen . (Decidedly funnier, too)

 

 

Whole Foods Rap

DJDave rolls out with this rap video about the trials and tribulations of trying to get into Whole Foods. What a clever little rap!  My favourite line is “I’m riding slow in my Prius.  All leather, tinted windows, you can’t see us”.

 

Master Chef Final (Funny)

This is hilarious!

The Mast Brothers Chocolate – Brooklyn

Brothers, Michael and Rick Mast are making incredible chocolate in Brooklyn, New York.

Their chocolate is made meticulously by hand sorting every bean, using laser thermometers.  They only use two ingredients, cocoa bean and sugar to achieve a pure product.

Even their equipment is unique.   An aerospace engineer friend of the brothers helped make an original device to break up the beans.

Their craft style chocolate is brought in by boat via Brasil and Dominican Republic.  Now, that makes me hungry for chocolate!

Trini Slap Chop

Hilarious!

EZ Cracker

No YOU take it easy, Cracker!

I’ve seen a lot of horrible gadgets in my time.  I sometimes find myself getting lost in gadget stores bent over, laughing my ass off (LMAO, for you computer people) over the plethora pointless junk.  The thing is, people buy it!

The EZ Cracker takes the cake.  Can you believe how hairbrained you’d have to be to buy this?  Who can’t crack a #($#* egg?

Oh, and if that isn’t enough, you can get the instant egg scrambler.  You know, incase you can’t use your fingers to pick up a fork and stir eggs clockwise in a bowl.

Bob Kramer Knives

51 year-old Bob Kramer is one of the 114 Master Bladesmiths in the world.  He has completed 10 years in professional kitchens along with 18 years of building knives.  He has been written about in Saveur Magazine, Cook’s Illustrated, The New Yorker and many more.

The Elderwood handled knives are made with Damascus steel, which spends its time in a 2500º oven.  The cost is $300 per inch and the wait is 14 months and growing.

“It’s hard on your eyes, on your elbow on your wrist.  You have to use a respirator.  It’s very dirty”, says Kramer.

I’d love to get my paws on one of these.

Cherpumple

Watch as Charles Phoenix makes the dessert version of turducken.

Cherpumple is a cake made of cherry, pumpkin and apple pie baked inside white cake.

I have to go, I feel sick.

Martha Stewart vs. Rachael Ray

Watch as the refined Martha passive-aggressively educates “un-oiled truck brakes voice” Rachael Ray.

You might also learn how to make a pie crust as well.

Gargouillou

I love discovering new things.

Gargouillou is a dish created by famed French chef Michel Bras.
It is a mixture of vegetables, leaves, fruits and flowers, each prepared in a different way — from Thumbelina carrots cooked with saffron to oven-dried spinach — is set upon a “dirt” made from black brioche crumbs and powdered tomato.

Check him out, creating a gorgeous masterpiece in this video! He looks like a crazy French painter.

I managed to find a recipe if you’re so inclined:

Will it Blend?

What?  It’s food related.  Blenders blend food!

Have a laugh.
