NYC chef creates breast milk cheese

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

I know we run a lot of weird stories but I think this one takes the cake, or maybe it should be cuts the cheese.  I am a big fan of cheese in just about any form but this is one I have to admit I wouldn’t even want to try, too weird!

NEW YORK (AP) — Breast milk cheese, anyone? A Manhattan chef has posted a recipe on his blog for what he calls “My spouse’s mommy milk cheese.” Daniel Angerer co-owns Klee Brasserie with his wife Lori Mason. A photo on his blog features the cheese encrusted with maple caramelized pumpkin and Concord grapes. They had an overabundance of milk for their newborn, Arabella Caroline. When their small freezer ran out of space, Angerer decided to experiment.

Angerer said his cooking instincts tend toward things natural. But even he admits: “THIS is a whole other level of ‘natural.’”

Glass in chicken noodle soup

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

Sounds like something you’d see on an episode of one of those MTV Stunt shows of idiots doing stupid things.

SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. (AP) — The state Department of Public Health is investigating an incident at a food supplier kitchen that left glass fragments in a batch of chicken noodle soup. The soup went to several customers of FoodService Partners Inc., including Kaiser Permanente hospitals in Northern California.

Kaiser said four of its patients reported finding glass in their soup Feb. 10. No one reported feeling any ill effects.

FoodService Partners said the glass came from a container that broke during the soup preparation. The Maryland-based company said the cook tried to just clean out the kettle rather than reporting the incident and dumping out the soup.

It said the cook has been suspended and will be retrained.

FoodService Partners has notified all its customers that received the soup, but it declined to identify them.

Man gets day in jail for throwing taco at manager

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

Where’s the crime here, if someone spit in my Taco he or she would be lucky to get off that easy!  It’d most likely come over the counter and knock someone out.  Ewwwwww

FAIRBANKS, Alaska (AP) — An Alaska man who hit a Taco Bell manager in the face with a double-decker taco has been sentenced to one day in jail and one year probation. Warren Strickland of Fairbanks must also pay a $100 fine after pleading guilty Tuesday to disorderly conduct.

The 31-year-old says he threw the taco because it contained spit after he went through the drive-thru twice because the restaurant messed up his order. He claims the manager accused him of lying to get free food.

Strickland is barred from Taco Bell during his year of probation.

Taco Bell is owned by Yum! Brands.

Now that's what I am waiting on

How is this a crime?  The crime should be McDonald’s failure to provide fat, tasteless, non nutritional chicken tenders when we want them!   We are addicted to fast food, when they hold back our fix, there are consequences!

TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) — Police say an Ohio woman punched through a McDonald’s drive-through window because Chicken McNuggets weren’t available.

Police were called Friday to the restaurant in Toledo.

Police say 24-year-old Melodi Dushane was treated for injuries, then jailed. She pleaded not guilty to a vandalism charge. She was released on a recognizance bond and ordered not to have contact with the restaurant. The phone number for her home address isn’t listed.

A manager at the McDonald’s declined Monday to discuss the incident.
