I love to drink absinthe. So when I saw that Tailor (who we told you about back in Sept 2007) has taken the drink up a notch, I was ecstatic. According to UrbanDaddy, they have introduced the Absinthe Gummy Bear, the gummy is smarter (and boozier) than the av-e-rage bear. It’s 85% absinthe, with just a touch of gelatin and sugar added to keep things solid. All you need to do is order an espresso or maybe 3 or 4 espresso’s.

I spent this past weekend ravenously talking about the Miracle Fruit.  Lo and behold, the New York Times does a story on it today.  Apparently there is a series of parties in New York and San Francisco called ‘Flavor Tripping‘ where the Miracle Fruit is featured prominently.  For those who do not know what a Miracle Fruit is, it is natures Nutra Sweet.  Bite into a lime after eating a miracle fruit, it will taste sweet.  Anything sour or nasty, sweet.  The US Government is said to have banned mass cultivation of the miracle fruit in the 60’s because they saw it as a threat to the Sugar Trade.  Anyway, find some berries or go to a party and enjoy.

(Thanks Ben!)

Kittiwat Unarrom got a master’s degree in fine arts and now makes lifelike body parts out of bread at a bakery in Thailand. All the disturbing yeast sculptures are made out of dough, raisins, cashews and chocolate. He’ll also paint the outside with some sort of edible paint to give it an even more gruesome appearance. When asked why he does it, Kittiwat replied, “I’m a wackjob and I like making people sick”.
