This Friday Lunch Break we have the usual links about food, plus a side of art and elephants. Obviously.
Winterize Your Smoothie… Five seasonal ingredients to spice up your morning beverage. I’ve tried avocado with pretty tasty results.
This Kinda Grosses Me Out… So I had to share. Competitive eating records, care of mental_floss. Slow down, people! There is nothing wrong with savoring that 11 pounds of cheesecake.
This. Is. So. Cool. …Just look at this. It’s paper. And it’s a-mazing.
Upstate NY Loves Its Organic Produce… Even in the dead of winter.
Agave As An Alternative… I can’t even pronounce “agave” correctly, so I’m hardly pretending to be an expert. Just food for thought.
And Finally, An Elephant Never Forgets… so see if you remember these pop culture elephants. Why not, it’s Friday.

Yes, gross-out totally. What does it say about who we (using ‘we’ VERY loosely) are? Piggish slubs? Gluttonish, competitive louts? (My inner Jonathan Edwards is fast-emerging.)
…and National Cheese DAY? Isn’t every day a Cheese Day?
