Reblogged from Todd Pack's Messy Desk: Here in the United States, things like milk and orange juice usually come in gallons and half gallons and quarts and pints. One gallon equals 128 fluid ounces. This is important to the story. So’s the fact that marketers are always looking for something, anything, to distinguish their product from […]

We live in an amazing world that has gotten smaller and smaller. Foods now find their way to all regions of the world.  Here in America, we are blessed with a bounty of tasty goodness that we can import from ANYWHERE.  In fact, we have gotten so spoiled with importing high-end delicacies from foreign lands, that often times we […]

He Fed Up followers and fans of random food related rants. This past week I made a new friend. He is actually more like an advisor. A reliable guide. Sort of like my own personal Yoda who shows me the path to good grub that is good for me. Seriously, check out the Crazy Food […]

I hate how our society’s relationship with food has become so jaded. It has gotten to the point where manufactures gave up trying to connect their packaged food products to ANY  of their natural roots.

You are taking a risk if you walk into some hippie-veagan restaurant that only serves gluten and nut free foods, and then request A Texas t-bone with a slice of pecan pie for dessert.  The waiter may bring SOMETHING out, but it likely won’t be tasty. Now… Getting crabs, crawfish, or any crustacean in the middle of a mountain range, thousands of […]

There are a lot of cardinal sins that a grocery store cashier can commit which can then easily destroy the whole shopping experience. They can neglect the careful handling procedures needed for delicate items like cilantro and other herbs. They can improperly bag your goods, resulting in smashed bread loaves or broken eggs. And they can analyze your groceries, leading to comments […]

Why is it ok to treat the office kitchen like crap? And why does basic etiquette and luch-room rules seem nonexistent in your place of employment? In this multi-part “rant“, the Fed Up team explores the work-place kitchen and why “the golden rule” does not seem to apply there. Part One; WHAT THE HELL IS THAT? […]

I just have to share how truly beautiful this pepperoni pizza is. I made it the other day and had to take a picture. This got me thinking that there needs to be more food-based artwork in this world. Portraits are over done, flowers are boring, and you can’t eat landscapes. Just imagine how tasty […]
