Friday, February 5th, 2010Making friends with an exceptionally talented specialty pastry artist, I’ve come to know, is always a good thing to do.

The Prodigal Carnivore Returns to the Crescent City (Part I)
Monday, April 21st, 2008I’ve recently returned to my hometown, New Orleans, which has always held a special, spicy place in my heart, as it should any food lover.

Thursday, April 12th, 2007Hello friends, As I’m sure you can see from the date of the below post (before the New Year? Really?), I’ve been conspicuously absent in recent weeks. Don’t worry — this isn’t because I’ve forgotton about this site, or stopped writing, or all of a sudden renounced my carnivorous ways. No, what’s really going on [...]
Return of the Shameless Carnivore!
Wednesday, November 22nd, 2006Hello again, my meat-loving friends, As you may have noticed, there hasn’t been anything new under the sun in Carnivore land — well at least not on this site, anyhow — for quite some time. Much to the disappoint of my detractors, that’s not because I’ve all of a sudden decided that eating meat is [...]

Soylent Green is…Tofu?
Tuesday, April 11th, 2006Although it’s super fun to joke about with friends (not to mention that it provides leagues of witty copy), there are a variety of reasons that I do not actually eat the meat from my fellow human beings.
