Wegman's organic banana from he'llNow that we have seen just how delicious food can be, let's show the flipside. Just how disgusting food can be. What the truck happened to this banana? How did the harvester not notice? How did the packer nip notice? How did the stock boy not notice? I mean did it happen after it got put on the shelf? If so where are the things that crawled out if it. Did anyone die getting it to market? Did anyone die from it, after it got to market?

Pavlovas are deliciousI made pavlovas for dessert. I have a smeaking suspicion that each
one is over 600 calories of goodness. It's a giant meringue base
covered in whip cream and strawberries in syrup with grated dark
chocolate over the top.
I think I might have burnt out the beaters trying to whisk it into
stiff peaks. It's really time I get a stand mixer.

Beef RoastMegan made a beef roast for dinner this evening. It had coriander
seeds on the outside. Tgey make for such a good taste. It was so
delicious. I finally got to use my silver roast serving tray and my
new electric knife, which (e:mike) got me for Jesus' birthday. They
really do work like magic.

Buddha's hands at wegman's I think I wrote about this once before when they were on sale but
called Buddha's fingers. I don't understand where the fruit is. It
looks like 90% pure rind. Seriously, who pays $14.99 for this. I
think $4.99 sounds like too much -they do look cool though.

What a great store that place is, It really is. In terms of what those are I have no idea. It looks like though you get a lot of it in the bunch. Not that I buy Bananas but I think that instead of being sold by the pound they should be sold by the bunch.

Playstation 3/Wii Youtube InterfaceCategory: web
Today, youtube came out with a playstation 3 and wii interface that is really well suited for television. I think it is also well suited for the computer as it is really streaminlined and nice.
Sadly, they don't make it available for viewing it on the computer.
But you can make it work on your computer.
The way they check is by checking your playstation 3 user agent. Luckily, you can make your computer pretend to be a platstation.
The playstation user agent is:
Mozilla/5.0 (PLAYSTATION 3; 2.00)
There a lot of different ways to fake your user agent. I am going over how to do it with Safari on mac.
First you need to enable the "develop" menu in Safari. To do this open the terminal application in /Applications/utilties/terminal.app. Then type the following into:
defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDebugMenu 1
Once you do that, restart Safari and you will see a new "Develop" menu between the "Bookmarks" and "Window" menu. I know its weird because the command says IncludeDebugMenu and then you get a Develop menu, but just trust me. Click on Develop and choose, User Agent-> other from the drop down.
In the box that pops up type the Playstation 3 user agent from above.
Then visit the new youtube TV interface:

Remember to switch back to the default safari user agent when you are done using the same menu.

LOL. Bananas come from "third-world" tropical countries, (e:lilho). Things shrivel due to heat before they reach this state there. This looks like a very restricted fungal infection due to inappropriate quality control while storage and transport.
PS: Also strangely looks like the bone of a rotting corpse.
i thought you only saw stuff like that in third world countries, which by the way i have zero interest in going to, because i think of things like rotten fruit.
That was from the day we saw you. I just posted it later.
That is disgusting. Are you going to Wegmans everyday now?
