Hott Links: Me Want Cookie

– This is gonna be a tough truth for a lot of you, but the world finally has an answer to the question: When cookie monster eats, where do the cookies go? [Slashfood]

– Speaking of foodie monsters, Rachael Ray is trying on a new hipster personality for size. The Rayster is hosting a party at SXSW music festival this year, complete with performances from nerdy math rockers Battles and a yum-o little band by the name of Holy Fuck. [Pitchfork]

– And while we’re on the topic of food TV, rumor has it that the Food Network will soon be available in dead tree format. [TV Food Fan]

Hott Lovin’ Links

Editors’ Note: The following post contains material intended for a mature audience. Minors, mothers of ES contributors and others offended by such subject matter should scroll directly to the next post, which is about Amish people.

– Still in search of a V-day gift? Nothing spells L-O-V-E like a bra filled with a bottle of cheap wine. [Wired]

– If your Valentine fantasies involve less Strawberry Boones Farm and more actual strawberries, you’ll want to check out this European ad for, um, fresh fruit. [Gawker]

– And for those of you who find nothing sexier than processed cheese product, you’re in luck, because Kraft has introduced Kraft Doubles, just in time for the holiday. [The Onion]

Hott Links: What’ll They Drink of Next?

Always on the cutting edge, ES had traveled around the world (via the blogosphere) to bring you news of what we’ll all be drinking in the future:

– Japanese schoolgirls, who pretty much decide what’s cool in America one year in advance, have started drinking hot beer. That’s right. Beer – heated. [J-list, via SEats]

– For those of you who always wanted a little more Che in your brews, the answer is almost here: Yerba Mate Beer. ES prediction: Herbal-infused beers are the next big thing. [Slashfood]

– If you’re lookin’ for even more Latin flavor in your glass, here’s a crazy idea: try mixing your tequila with some spicy chocolate mole. One Chocomole coming up. But I wouldn’t recommend two, that sounds like a recipe for disaster. [Liquid Muse]

Gourmet My Ass

Gourmet magazine recently reworked their website to include sections on food politics, food-making videos and hoity toity advice. Now, this would not normally warrant a post on the anti-establishment ES, but they also added the section: “Vintage Gourmet.” This showcases ghosts of Gourmet’s past. And when I say ghosts, I just don’t mean pineapple, kiwi and goose pudding, or some other gelatin concoction. No, I mean seriously effed up dishes – VARMINT recipes. Yes, I said it. Gourmet actually published recipes for woodchuck, raccoon and squirrel.

Now this is where the fun comes in. ES will offer a guest blogging post to the most daring, most delicious attempt at varmint cooking and eating. AND, a coveted spot on our forthcoming Hall of Endless Eaters.

Please send recipes and photos to contests@endlesssimmer.com by March 3, 2008 (because the first is a Saturday and obviously we don’t work on Saturdays, we drink)

Good luck and Godspeed!

Hott Links: Irresponsible Rumor Mongering

It’s the Tuesday after a long weekend. We’re tired, uncreative, and being forced to do “real work,” so let’s just do what bloggers do best: make shit up.

– Sounds like Mario Batali is doing Gwyneth. [TVFF]

– Paris Hilton and Cat Cora? Works for us. [Gawker]

– Anthony Bourdain is free, free, FREE and deliriously happy. Also, he hates America, and is probably a terrorist. [Bourdain Blog]
