The Royal Wedding Pizza

Papa John's introduces the royal wedding pizza. The Royal Wedding fever has been sweeping the world and now companies are using the wedding for their own advantage....like creating a pizza! Hope ladies who are crying and weeping all cheer up with this pizza. I might order it for my friend who has been gloomy lately...... (But...wow they really look like Will & Kate, especially the olives on the duchess...wait is Prince Williams bald in the pizza!?)

Molecular Gastronomy At Its Finest



I love Heston Blumenthal -- absolutely adore him. Last spring, I discovered his show called "Heston's Feasts," where he uses old recipes from a particular era and recreates, obviously adding some kind of modern twist. In one particular episode, he tackles the victorian period, and makes a delightful feast accordingly. His on camera shtick is two fold: (1) he employs the most unconventional, and otherwise disgusting, ingredients (2) he cannot himself help but to take on the seemingly impossible gastronomic challenges. This is a clip of him actually creating the famous "drink me" potion from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland.
