I’ve become a casual fan of Naked & Afraid (the TV show).  When flipping through the channels, I keep tripping across the reruns.  For those of you non-watchers.  Two people (1 man, 1 woman) that have never met who are dropped in a remote location for 21 days with nothing–not even clothes. I am dumbfounded by what they will eat.  If you’re hungry enough, I supposes giant crickets (maybe it was a grasshopper) look delicious.  Bizarre.  Here’s a Call for all things bizarre.  Maybe even crickets…

POTATOES

While traveling recently, I was forced to choose between two “American” restaurants as my only options.  According to these menus, American fare is defined as steak, baked potatoes, boiled vegetables, hamburgers & fries.  I am puzzled by that summation.  How does a country so rich with ethnic variety get distilled down to steak and potatoes?  This next Call wants your ideas on your origin from you perspective; food could be an interesting viewpoint.  Take a look…

Pungent seems to be the portfolio view of my kitchen.  While taken individually you’ll find the full gamut of flavors from subtle pink salt to fresh pulled mozzarella, the overall impression most people would have after a quick kitchen tour would probably be more accurately represented by a jar of anise and potted mammoth basil plant.  What does your portfolio say about you?  The next Call asks this very question.  Take a look…

I love eating in a small town because I have learned that it means I can more easily know and appreciate my connections to my food.  However, as I sit and write from a hotel room in a city with a population of almost 7,000 (twice the size of my hometown), I realize that many additional options a little boost in size can afford.  This next Call is looking for your views on the cityy–good OR bad.
