I’d like to change the pace a little and write about one of my Reader subscriptions called “KCRW Good Food” .
KCRW is an FM radio station that provides lots of podcasts, and the podcast (this is a very large file and will take a while to open) I got from the reader is a 50 minute segment that had a lot to do with Memorial Day events and other fun food things. Part of the episode deals with a new movement called “Slow Food”. There is now an international organization that not only rates, publishes, awards, and even blogs about wonderful establishments who pride themselves on providing affordable ambiance, and a relaxing meal rather than the standard of the Fast Food Industry. Another segment of this podcast dealt with one of my Food Channel favorites, Alton Brown, and his show that highlights some of the out of the way places along the Mississippi River. Lastly, there are some interviews with folks about the southern classic, Memorial Day or not, about barbecued chicken. Can you smell the smoky flavor of the grill?
