I love a good meal. But some meals are just scary at how messy they leave you feeling. Don’t get me wrong, I have no problem tearing into a platter of boiled crawfish and having that wonderful spicy crustacean juice drip down my arm when I tear of their tails. Many foods are simply designed […]
It is a huge conspiracy theory…just a giant lie. All my life I have been told how nasty brussls sprouts are. I avoided them all my life. But then I saw it, a huge bag of the the little green balls for dirt cheap… Me being as stingy as I am, I thought I would […]
Cheese, glorious cheese. One of those magical culinary ingredients that makes everything taste better. You can take and amazingly crappy sandwich, add some beautiful cheese and save the whole meal. In fact, you can even take really crappy cheese and add it to any crappy meal and suddenly you have something to enjoy. There are many forms of “crap” […]
While many people think its rude or improper to eat those decorative garnishes commonly found alongside meals today, I feel that anything put on a plate is fair game to be eaten. I am fed up with etiquette police saying not to eat the umbrella skewered fruit served with a drink, or the decorative vegetables […]
Its a joke. Each week we get the weekly circular from each of the grocery store chains competing for our hard earned cash. While in general, each store has their positives (AND fair share of negatives), they viciously attempt to gain our attention with weekly specials. Yes we are extremely grateful for half priced mangos and discounted yogurt that is about to go past […]
Seasons are nice. They give you an excuse to vary the grub you stuff in your face. But its not cool when providers of seasonal items suddenly remove gourmet delicacies from their shelves.

We always seem to stick with the familiar…that’s boring. When the Fed Up crew gets together for a homemade meal, We try to make something unique. We like food, but clever meals made with unique things is always a great combo…. especially when they are quick to make (because I am lazy) and impress the guests (because […]
This is a very simple argument…Sushi has to be one of the most beautiful meals that can be served. Each roll is a piece of art that the whole Fed Up team pauses and appreciates before we quickly move in with our chop sticks. While there are plenty of other “designer dishes” that come to […]
Garlic, a thing of beauty if used intelligently. Raw, it can overpower a dish, burnt is get hard and bitter. Cooking it just right requires plenty of TLC and just the right balance of heat…..but roasted garlic is AMAZING. The intense taste of raw garlic become far more mild and an almost sweet flavor become dominant. Well, Mr. […]
Just another example of the “superfood” and exotic food trend being taken TOO far. This Great Value (walmart’s store brand) drink mix is Acai and Mangosteen flavored. I am pretty well traveled,and familiar with alot of foods… But even I had to look up what a “Mangosteen” was to remember it(a fruit that is a […]
