Cap’n Crunch Is Getting His Own Late Night Talk Show

April 29, 2013 by Chris Durso

Move over, Letterman, Leno, and whoever else no one stays up late enough to watch — because Cap’n Crunch is getting his own late night talk show… Seriously. The Cap’n Crunch Show is the next step in the Cap’n’s comeback, after a recent revival of the brand, thanks in large part to some successful social media marketing. The decision to launch a Cap’n Crunch cereal that’s all Crunch Berries probably didn’t hurt either.

The Cap’n Crunch Show will run on its very own YouTube channel every other Tuesday at 11:35pm, beginning May 7th. Guests are expected to be some heavy hitters from the breakfast and kiddie cereal industry. Hopefully, we get a rare appearance from Fruit Brute, or some of the other cereal monsters. We hear they’re a tough interview.

GIVEAWAY: Ultimate Nachos Cookbook by Nachos NY

April 26, 2013 by Chris Durso

Nachos… The ultimate bar snack, hangover stopper, and a great excuse to melt some cheese. Our friends Lee Frank and Rachel Anderson over at Nachos NY have dedicated quite a bit of their lives to the gooey snack, and have recently converted their passion into book form.

Ultimate Nachos is chock-full of over 80 recipes for nachos, guacamoles, salsas, quesos, drinks and more — while filling the void on bookshelves that sorely lack some nacho porn.

The best news… Nachos NY and Foodiggity have teamed up to give away two copies of Ultimate Nachos. The rules are simple… Head over to our post on Foodiggity’s Facebook page and let us know how you like your nachos and what guacamole means to you. Bonus points if you’re actually eating nachos and post a pic. Two winners will be chosen by an esteemed panel of judges that specialize in scrutinizing internet comments.*

So, head over to Facebook and tell us how you do nachos… There are no wrong answers. Unless you tell us that you don’t like nachos — in which case you’re dead wrong and we feel sorry for you.

* two copies of ‘Ultimate Nachos’ will be awarded to our two favorite comments. Winners must have a delivery address within the U.S. and like nachos. Contest ends Tuesday, 4/30 at 11:59pm EST… Winners announced Wednesday, 5/1.

Jalapeño Popper Grilled Cheese

April 26, 2013 by Chris Durso

Oh good, there’s still time!! With only a few days left in National Grilled Cheese Month, we’re glad we could slip in the Jalapeño Popper Grilled Cheese. Brought to us by J. Kenji Lopez-Alt of Serious Eats, the sandwich brilliantly adds jalapeño poppers to grilled cheese. Kenji also throws in some bacon, because bacon.

Check out the recipe here, and take it a step further and make it a Jalapeño Popper Grilled Cheesus.
