If you were born into it like I was, 99.99% of the time you love it. Koreans, especially older ones, are so fanatically addicted to this dish that they are probably the only race group that will immediately [...] http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/18/guest-blogger-an-ode-to-ketchup/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/18/guest-blogger-an-ode-to-ketchup/#comments Mon, 18 Aug 2008 15:58:47 +0000 Besha Rodell http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/18/guest-blogger-an-ode-to-ketchup/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/18/guest-blogger-an-ode-to-ketchup/feed/ 3 Playing ketchup By Russ Marshalek I first discovered ketchup as a weight-loss tool when I was in my early teens. My Marietta trailer-park youth contributed to some serious adolescent obesity in terms of me shopping the husky section of Wal-Mart for cheap jeans (which my family called “dungarees”). Around the age of thirteen, three major turning points [...] http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/11/guest-blogger-feeding-15-on-the-fly/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/11/guest-blogger-feeding-15-on-the-fly/#comments Mon, 11 Aug 2008 14:38:36 +0000 Besha Rodell http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/11/guest-blogger-feeding-15-on-the-fly/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/11/guest-blogger-feeding-15-on-the-fly/feed/ 2 Zen cooking By Julia Stedman I turned to my husband and said “if Mama asks me to cook supper, will you give me five dollars?” He gave me a very knowing half smile. Surely to God, with an hour left on our four hour drive and the sun setting, I was in the clear. Not so. Fifteen [...] http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/06/guest-blogger-forget-new-york/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/06/guest-blogger-forget-new-york/#comments Wed, 06 Aug 2008 16:54:04 +0000 Besha Rodell http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/06/guest-blogger-forget-new-york/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/06/guest-blogger-forget-new-york/feed/ 21 I’ll take Atlanta By Jessica Goldbogen Harlan When I told my friends that, after a decade in New York City, I was moving to Atlanta, they were aghast. “But won’t you miss the bagels and pizza?” they asked. I just marked my two-year anniversary of living here in Atlanta, and I’m happy to report that I miss neither.

By that, they mean that I’ll eat anything, from tripe to grasshopper to durian, as long as it is considered a food by some culture out there. While I love being labeled “adventurous,” it’s not quite fitting. After all, I don’t go to [...] http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/01/guest-blogger-memories-and-nostalgia-on-the-varsitys-80th-birthday/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/01/guest-blogger-memories-and-nostalgia-on-the-varsitys-80th-birthday/#comments Fri, 01 Aug 2008 19:10:55 +0000 Besha Rodell http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/01/guest-blogger-memories-and-nostalgia-on-the-varsitys-80th-birthday/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/08/01/guest-blogger-memories-and-nostalgia-on-the-varsitys-80th-birthday/feed/ 0 Varsity love By Molly Spruill When co-workers ask where I am from and I tell them “Atlanta”, they say, “That’s a rarity!” As the hub of the Southeast, Atlanta seems to have far more out-of-towners than native Atlantans. As a result, many of the people that I work with don’t have the history or memories of [...] http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/07/28/guest-blogger-good-food-in-unexpected-places/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/07/28/guest-blogger-good-food-in-unexpected-places/#comments Mon, 28 Jul 2008 16:04:28 +0000 Besha Rodell http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/07/28/guest-blogger-good-food-in-unexpected-places/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/07/28/guest-blogger-good-food-in-unexpected-places/feed/ 0 The Gourmet-ification of everywhere By Lindsey Zuckerman It used to be that you could only find great food at home or in a restaurant. Lately, though, good food is popping up in all sorts of unexpected places. Whether you’re enjoying BBQ Pork Ribs at Turner Field, sushi at Seattle’s Safeco Field or clam chowder at San Francisco’s [...] http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/07/23/guest-blogger-theraputic-baking/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/07/23/guest-blogger-theraputic-baking/#comments Wed, 23 Jul 2008 18:59:42 +0000 Besha Rodell http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/07/23/guest-blogger-theraputic-baking/ http://blogs.creativeloafing.com/omnivore/2008/07/23/guest-blogger-theraputic-baking/feed/ 1 Last week I extended an invitation to readers to contribute to Omnivore with stories of food and life. I’ve had quite a response already, and today I’m happy to present our first guest blogger, Lauren Leschper. Lauren writes about how for her, baking is way cheaper than therapy. Enjoy, and if you’re interested in blogging [...]
