P.F. Chang's Home Menu
By Fresno
This site is primarily about super-awesome gadgets that make you the envy of your buddies, but everybody has to eat. In order to satisfy that primal craving for delicious grub, P.F. Chang's has been kind enough to share with us a mighty haul of their Home Menu grub. They come in a wide variety of flavors, each representing a meal you would expect if you had walked between those big horse statues and through the doors of a P.F. Chang's restuarant. They're easy to cook, easy to store and taste a heck of a lot better than the stuff you'll get in the mystery foam containers from the sketchy joint down the street.
The Little Black Book of Barbecue
By Fresno
With weather like this, the thought of cooking inside your house seems downright stupid. Your grill is out there begging for you to make use of it, but if all you have to offer your trusty cooker are some lame, pre-made burgers and a package of hot dogs, you might as well just hang up your tongs right now. This reference, however, has everything you need to master the flames of cooking like so many cavemen before you. It's spiral-bound and the pages are extra tough so it won't get ruined if (maybe "when" is more appropriate) you get sauce all over it. It covers all the essential grilling food groups, including chicken, beef, pork, seafood and even vegetables, if you're into that kind of thing.
Kettle Chips Prize Package
By Fresno
Our grand week of food give aways is still going strong. Today's delicious prize is a package of Kettle chips, including two of their newest flavors, Krinkle Cut Cheddar & Sour Cream and Fully Loaded Baked Potato. Both chips live up to the reputation Kettle has established for themselves as the purveyors of some of the crunchiest and least greasy chips you can tear into. The package includes both smooth and Krinkle cut chips, so you'll have no problem satisfying your chip lust, no matter which kind you prefer. Just don't insult them with dip.
Omaha Steaks Thrill the Grill Package
By Fresno
Grilling season is in full effect, but rather than cluttering up your cooker with lame, mystery meat, you should be putting fire under the real deal. This package includes everything you need to make your neighbors jealous, including 2 (6 oz.) Filet Mignons, 2 (6 oz.) Top Sirloins, 4 (4 oz.) Chicken Breasts, 4 (4 oz.) Pork Chops and 4 (4 oz.) Omaha Steaks Burgers. To go along with your viking-sized meat medley, they have also thrown in 4 Stuffed Baked Potatoes and a free six-piece cutlery set with cutting board. If you win, you can have your prize shipped directly to your dad if you're trying to get him a great Father's Day gift. Otherwise, you can order one yourself for $50 and make your other siblings look like total gift-giving slouches.
Burger King Iron Man 2 Prize Pack
By Fresno
It's food give away week! Check back every day this week for the chance to win some choice consumables. So, it looks like our week long give away fiesta worked last week, because the new Iron Man flick made a big chunk of change (you can send along our cut any time.) Burger King was also very excited about the man in the red suit, so they rolled out a line of Iron Man 2 toys as well as a special edition Whiplash Whopper to celebrate the occasion. We have some of the toys and a $25 BK gift card, so you can grab some grub before heading out to your third viewing of Iron Man 2. While you're over there, pick us up a Rodeo Cheeseburger. Any burger with onion rings on it is food fit for a super hero. Or a bunch of guys who work on the Internet.
Slim Chips
By Fresno
When you're a little kid, the idea of eating paper is pretty funny. We used to do it all the time just to mess with the teachers. But, apparently hipster artist types still quite enjoy it. Slim Chips are a "zero calorie" food that is made frim ediple paper. They'll be on sale later in the summer and will come in flavors like mint, blueberry, cheddar and wasabi. Our first thought was that eating paper can't be good for you, but then we looked at all the empty Combos bags on the office floor and lost interest. If we get some, we'll give you a taste test. Until then, we're going to get some college-ruled loose leaf and a jar of Mrs. Dash.
KFC Double Down
By Fresno
Let us first say that you shouldn't be eating fast food every day. But when you do, you should be making novelty eatin excursions of epic proportions. No sandwich makes that easier than KFC's new monster, the Double Down. Inside you'll find two pieces of bacon, two slices of cheese (pepper jack and regular jack for those keeping score) and Colone's Sauce, which is apparently some kind of orange mayonaise. Rather than wrapping all of that in boring bread, that beautiful mind they call Colonel slapped it between two boneless pieces of original recipe chicken. Sure, you can get it on grilled chicken, too, but guy rule number 1 is as follows: If you can get a sandwich on fried chicken instead of bread, you get it. No questions asked. It debuts on April 12th. Frankly, we can't wait.
If you show up at your lady's door with one of those big stupid chocolate hearts, you deserve to get punched right in the face. You can claim it's "ironic" all you want, but she'll know it's just laziness. These Bittersweet tiles are a welcomed change of pace from the normal candy fare, though. Each $34 package comes with a selection of flavors, including the traditional almond, as well as some wacky-but-awesome flavors like crystalized ginger, burnt caramel toffee and even Aztec Chile with cinnamon, chile and toasted pumpkin seeds. Sure, it sounds a little weird, but they're delicious. And really, is it any weirder than the blindingly pink, vaguely fruit flavored cream inside those heart chocolates? Definitely not.
Heinz Dip & Squeeze Ketchup Packets
By Fresno
Those old, bag-like ketchup packets were truly icons. They were good for just about everything, from throwing at the nerdy kids in school lunch to stealing by the handful from fast food restaurants in college. In fact, they only thing they weren't good at was getting ketchup onto your food and not your clothes. The age of the red stain is over, though, because Heinz has revamped their delicious goo into versatile dip and squeeze containers. Peel off the whole top and dip your fries or yank off the top and squeeze it onto a plate. They hold more ketchup and will be much more efficient. In fact, the only bad thing about them is the amount of times you'll have to hear people say, "I liked the old ones better!"
Sometimes fast food innovation comes in the form of some fancy new sauce or a wacky new side dish meant to steal the spotlight away from the venerable french fry. But, sometimes all it takes is the addition of more meat to make an old menu item seem new again. In order to revamp their normal breakfast sandwich, Hardees did what any good man would do: They slapped more sausage onto it. The press release we received this morning (yes, we receive press releases about breakfast sandwiches) has one of the most amazing PR quotes of all time from the company's executive vice president of marketing, Brad Haley: "The only way to improve a classic was to make it twice as meaty, and therefore, twice as delicious. It won’t take two of these to fill you up in the morning." You speak the truth, Brad, and we love you for it. $2.39.
Sir Francis Bacon Peanut Brittle
By Fresno
We wouldn't necessarily expect this kind of wacky concoction from the expensive-scarf-wearing crowd at fancy pants grocery store chain, Dean & DeLuca. But apparently the salty draw of bacon is universal. Each box comes with 9-ounces of delicious sugarry hunks, peppered with peanuts and hickory smoked bacon. The product page claims that the flavor is "remarkably sophisticated," which we assume is a fancy way of saying, "it tastes like candy with bacon in it." $16.

Burger King Holiday Gift Cards
By Fresno
We don't like stereotypes around here, but if there's one that rings true, it's that guys suck at shopping for gifts. But, Burger King has a meat-laden solution for your procrastination problem. For just a buck, the kind ol' king will provide your lucky gift receiver with a witty card stuffed with an actual dollar meant to be spent on one of their 1/4 double cheeseburgers. The cards are actually kind of funny, so maybe if you leave one out for the mail man, he'll actually start delivering your copies of Maxim, rather than hording them in his secret mail cave.
