Admit it— you're a fool for food magazines and The Food Network. If you devour them all instead of novels or drool over the recipes before bedtime, you don't have a problem, you have plenty of company. Millions of Americans seem as addicted to reading and watching anything about cooking as they are to actually preparing a meal. So why the fascination with all things food? It's very simple. One of the best ways to create a sense of belonging is to share a meal with someone, and there's a need to know what to do when it comes to food. UPBEAT Entertainment News Syndicate wants to do more than break some lightly oiled bread with you. Welcome to an amusing and always informative look at the vastly limitless world of food and drink. Nothing escapes parody; not the lobster, the potato, the turnip or the green vegetable. Dining out is covered too, as well as drinking for fun and profit. Frozen food, like folded laundry and alimony, is one of those things that all of us always expect to be there. How many of us are aware that the concept was the product of someone’s inventive spirit and foresight? Truth be told, The Food Bytes is an irreverent look at the surge of tropical fruits and vegetables that have found their way to our local supermarkets; it is all things equated to the glorious art of food. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst, for they are all sticking to their collective diets and have bored those of us who enjoy a sloppy burger from time to time all to tears. UB
