Hello, this is a shock and an honor: we have finally secured the recipe to Sr. Heb Boosh’s famous guacamole, the very same guacamole that sits inside this $75 Guaca Bowle for sale on his campaign website.

Eating placenta is a tradition as time-honored as it is healthy and delicious. Said to have the power to ward off depression and restore the body due to the wealth of stem cells found within, placenta can be eaten raw or cooked—and today, many people are choosing to have it in a thick, bulbous smoothie that tastes…

Modern Farmer put together a pie chart of pies by month and we all really fucked up when it comes to October. Why were we not eating apple pie every day and when we weren't eating it, talking about eating it? And if you were doing that, how come you didn't tell me? That is not the "leave no pie behind" mentality that…
