http://www.vimeo.com/36038586 This hour long documentary for which Joe has spent years in the eating comes out this Fall. Folks like me who have enjoyed his great short films about food like Whole Hog have been looking forward to it. It has a web page, too.  It is well known that Damon Runyon was fascinated with the underworld characters hanging out in saloons on Broadway during prohibition. I was unaware he was also fascinated with tripe. From the start of the story “Blonde Mink”: Now of course there are many different ways of cooking tripe but personally I prefer it [...] In an article that represents some of the best news I’ve heard today, the Atlantic website begins: In a small study, researchers found that cheese, often avoided due to its saturated fatty acids, did not increase LDL or total cholesterol levels. And I stole the title outright from the Atlantic because I wanted an [...] While we were in Tupelo at mid-day today, we happened upon Home Chef Market in Tupelo at 1203 North Gloster Street.
