Food

Just like our fellow testosterone-sweating, meat-loving friend Ron Swanson, we’re big fans of bacon. To put our love for the greasy snack into perspective, learning about the horrific pending bacon shortage sent us into a minor panic attack, but it’s difficult to fully encompass our feelings for the meat strips. Luckily, a bacon-loving middle-schooler has done that for us.

When we think of fall, several things come immediately to mind -- cooling temperatures, turning leaves, costumes, candy and turkey dinner. But nothing evokes the season more than pumpkin pie, especially with a generous dollop of waist-expanding whipped cream. With its velvety texture and rich flavor, what's not to love?

Several schools across the country have banned Flamin' Hot Cheetos because they are so unhealthy and dangerous to kids. What about these snacks? They seem *at least* as terrifying as something that promises to be hot as fire. It certainly can't be safe for kids to eat these. Also, we want some.

A woman in Florida was recently arrested after she allegedly called 911 six times to thank police for bologna sandwiches she ate while in jail previously. Hey, we like bologna too. But is it worth alerting local authorities? Probably not.

Ever notice how the names of many characters in the 'Star Wars' universe sound like tasty pasta dishes? We did, and we decided to test our theory with a little video quiz at the 2012 New York Comic Con.

One the questions Chef John of Food Wishes is asked most frequently: how do chefs manage to flip food in a pan? Eventually he decided to film a video for all of us slobs, revealing (with low-stakes snack food) how the pros do it.

It’s that time of year again when we apologize to our pancreas and then eat until we're sick -- Halloween candy season! Everywhere we turn, we’re bombarded with chocolate and gummies and sour things and those peanut butter taffies in the wax paper wrapping that no one ever eats. Somehow those things have survived the ages but our favorites have gone by the wayside. It’s bittersweet heaven on earth

Believe it or not, most fast food joints and quick service chains actually offer a lot more variety and ingenuity than their menus would suggest -- they just hide it from you for some sad, sad, reason.

We’re starting to think Pizza Hut has gone off a crazy cliff recently, what with their introduction of the Cheeseburger Crown Pizza and Cone Crust Pizza. It’s like Mr. Pizza Hut (he exists, right?) is trying to make some fantasy food magic happen, but it doesn’t quite seem to work. So when the popular food chain unveiled its latest creation, ‘Kit Kat Pops’, we shouldn’t have been surprised, right?

We really don’t like to be the bearers of bad news. It makes us feel all sad and weird, like ‘Gangnam Style’ in an elevator. But this time, we feel that it’s necessary to relay said bad news, if only for your health: there is going to be a global shortage of bacon next year.

On the strength of playing breakfast meat connoisseur Ron Swanson on 'Parks And Recreation,' we think it's safe to call Nick Offerman a bacon expert. However, we weren't aware of the depth of his dedication to the cured meat until we saw this video from CollegeHumor. In it, the mustachioed 42-year-old uses slam poetry to pay tribute to the internet's favorite food.

Philly: It's not just for cheesesteaks anymore. You can grab a fine slice of pizza anywhere, but only in the City of Brotherly Love can you nosh on a slice and enjoy pizza-specific memorabilia, such as photos, videos, knickknacks and more, at what appears to be the first-ever pizza museum.

Sometimes the food you eat is trying to kill you. Not in the traditional sense, with saturated fat, refined sugars and cholesterol. There are a few foods out there that can literally end your life if improperly prepared, or at the very least make you terribly sick. While you probably won’t encounter most of the items on this list during the normal course of your life, a few of them are surprisingl

It's a pretty massive PR stunt, and we hope it works. Comedian Josh Sankey is doing a 12-city tour of the United States and he can only barter with bacon -- he can't pay for anything with cash. He has been given 3,000 pounds of the stuff to get him across America. But will it work?

You might remember a few months ago when this awesome dancing YouTube poster decided to let the world know how much they love pizza by eating it while dancing to Prince. Well, he's back and it seems he also really loves Janet Jackson and french fries...
