Carnivorous Hero of the Week: Dagwood Bumstead
Tuesday, September 12th, 2006While I’m usually more inclined to count people in the nonfiction, ie. “real,” world in my pantheon of carnivorous heroes, every now and again I’m forced to make exceptions. Now, I realize that the funny papers aren’t exactly high art — though some pop-culture/media studies nerds might disagree — but they have, over the past [...]
Think salad is just rabbit food? Not in MY house!
Wednesday, June 28th, 2006Ever since I embarked on this little carnivorous adventure of mine, I’ve fielded a wagonload of questions regarding my dietary habits, ranging from the genuinely curious to the utterly inane: Do you eat ONLY meat?
