Funny story... we overheard this american couple standing outside the one near embassy row and the Thyssen-Bornemisza.
Woman: "oh, it's a ham museum. How amazing!"
Man: "they're all over the place"
Woman: "you mean there's more than one?"
Man: "yeah, it's a chain."
Woman: "you mean, they;re just CALLED museums?"
Man: "yeah."
Woman: "Well, that's jsut dirty of them"
Man: "true"
Woman": "oh well, let's go in, it looks hopp'n"

That's why you snap first, and grub later...because after you inhale the food it's gone very quickly!

Which model did you get? Did you turnoff the flash when the dishes were white?

It's called the Powershot 300 HS Digital ELPH Camera. It's a mid-range camera that I think performs admirably for the price.

Like 'racer said many of the pictures were taken with ample day light but, yes, I often tried to take pictures without the flash for a more natural looking photograph even in the absence of natural sun light.

NEW YORK \ A popular New York City deli says a potential legal challenge to its Instant Heart Attack sandwich isn't kosher.

A lawsuit filed Tuesday in federal court says the Heart Attack Grill restaurant chain has accused the 2nd Avenue Deli of stealing its idea to spoof healthy eating with calorie-bomb entrees like the three-patty Triple Bypass Burger. It asks the court to block the Arizona-based restaurant chain from pursuing a trademark infringement case.

The deli's Instant Heart Attack sandwich is a mountain of two potato pancakes and a piled-high choice of corned beef, pastrami, turkey or salami. The price: $23.95.

The Manhattan deli also has plans for a new Triple Bypass sandwich.

A Heart Attack Grill attorney hasn't returned a message seeking comment. A 575-pound man who served as the company's spokesman died in March.

Dayem. Not the healthiest thing to be fighting over. :sweat: When I was in NY I prefered to eat at Katz's Deli...where the pastrami sandwich can also be considered a "light snack." NOT.

The irony is the 575-pound company spokesman. :sweat:

I think you meant to say spokesMEN...since that's about 5 guys worth....and ain't talkin' the burger.

I agree it taste better than Morton's table salt which uses chemicals to strip all the other minerals out of the salt aside from sodium chloride. So as 'racer said, I think we all agree, too much of any salt is bad for you.

I like Maldon Sea Salt by the way :) It tastes great and it's so flaky and crunchy.

Yes, what I was getting at was because the flavor is more... robust, I tend to use less salt. No tangible cost savings, but I think the actual sodium intake is lower.

Lady Cries Over In-N-Out Burger Opening

A new In-N-Out Burger opened today in Texas and some people (naturally) got way too emotional. I was a little freaked out, but then I realized, you know, some people are just insane.

Hehe. I actually ate In-N-Out a couple of days ago. It was the first burger I ate in over two months. Dayem it was good. :)

From people that have eaten there, I've heard good things. Apparently it is pretty good for a fast food place.
