Onion Chocolate Cake
Don't laugh! I tried a piece of this cake at a food conference last year and it's not bad. I'm not sure why you'd bother adding onions to chocolate cake, though. Just because you can? From the USA National Onion Association.

Would you serve hot dogs at your wedding reception?
In a recent survey, 23 percent of hot dogs fans said they would.
More highlights from the survey, which is part of the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council's July is National Hot Dog Month campaign: Twenty percent of fans also said they would try to outlast a group of high maintenance people on a desert island if they thought a hot dog barbecue was their reward. A mere 6 percent of fans said they would make a chain of hot dogs and wear them around their neck - for when you must eat and run, of course.

Jacqui Malouf: Culinary Bimbo?
Shoba Narayan in the NYTimes identifies that sour taste women often get while watching Food TV. In The Food Network: Where the Kitchen Is Mostly a Men's Club she writes: Most of the prime-time male chefs on the Food Network have this edgy New York manner that borders on arrogance. This is all the more surprising given that 60 percent of the Food Network's viewers are women. Perhaps women like being talked down to. Then again, perhaps not. Maybe it is just the male chefs being themselves, along with a serious shortage of female chefs to change the model. Free, but requires registration.

It
s official. Chex brand cereal snack mix is the official snack of Sterling, Colorado. According to a General Mills press release: "I was shocked by how many people called in to say Chex Mix ruled," says Murphy.
