After Friday, Wednesday is my favorite weekday. Why, you ask? Well, because that’s the universal day for newpapers to run their food sections. Most of these sections are pretty lame, “10 New Ways to Use Canned Mushroom Soup” et. al. But, the grandaddy of all food sections is the New York Times. Because I work an overnight shift, I’m constantly clicking on “refresh” starting at midnight on Wednesday to see what this week’s offerings are. I usually buy the paper on the way home anyway to have a hard copy but sometimes the online perusal can save me a buck and a quarter.
Once upon a time, in the dark ages of the internets there was a website called SauteWednesday which collated all the food sections from around the country onto one website. But, alas, the blogger who put that together turned pro and abandoned it.
In other food publishing news, my latest edition of Meatpaper arrived yesterday. My subscription was a Christmas gift from my sister and one of the better gifts I received this year. This quarterly publication has fascinating articles on “the culture of meat”. Some even written by vegatarians! This month’s issue includes articles Israel’s clandestine pork market, and Tunisian goat testicles, among others.

Who doesn’t need to know about Tunisian goat testicles? Glad you like the MP. Speaking of blogs, I’m big into Bitten right now. But will certainly add JerzeeTomato to the list.
