It wasn't really anti food porn but I don't know where else to post this completely useless anecdote - Today I went to a Chinese restaurant and had some frog's legs. They were basil seasoned. Tasted like a baked chicken leg. It was actually rather disappointing, even though I enjoyed them.

Speaking of bacon, I tried a maple bacon donut yesterday (not my pic, but it looked just like this): I know it's not new or unique anymore, but I was really disappointed. The flavors just didn't seem to mesh at all.

I don't like either that much but I'd try one for curiosity's sake. But I cannot say the same for this (prison food)

It is so very, very appropriate that it has such a sort of... 'Industrial' name.

I see both versions at our local shop. They are really nice...but sadly I am not supposed to have them since all that yummy stuff screws my blood sugars up

Lester's got to step up his loving soda game, at least Jones makes palatable flavors too.

I saw something like this at my local Koreasian superstore. I'll pick it up the next time I'm over there and will report. Frog legs are not unheard of here in MI, either, prepared like lake perch (dredged in flour and pan-fried), though they were a lot more popular when I was a kid--and even then, it was definitely more for the older folks. I don't know what culture gave rise to that dish here--French?--but my father enjoyed the horrified look on our Japanese exchange student's face when he ordered them at a local seafood restaurant. He did an impression of a frog in a wheelchair to drive the point home.
