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!?)
This is a blog produced by the members of Smith College's spring 2011 English 119 class, "What's for Dinner: Writing about Food." Our title is taken from M.F.K. Fisher's 1968 essay "the Secret Ingredient."

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.
