Ah, another year gone, another Endless Simmer Eater of the Year crowned.

It’s only fitting that after Anthony Bourdain was crowned EotY in our inaugural 2007 poll, Bourdain’s veganizing nemesis Hezbollah Tofu took home the award in our second annual contest.

Winning an impressive 48 percent of your votes, HT held off all challenges from Julia Child, John Mayer, Michael Pollan, Kendra Wilkinson and Cindy McCain.

HT may be taking a break from the full-time recipe writing, but their spirit will live on with one of the most coveted honors in the eating community — a permanent spot in the Endless Eater Hall of Fame.
