The internet can be a such a delicious place. For your edification, here are a few links to what's cooking in the world of restaurants and food today. 

The Ken Burns 3-Part Documentary, "Prohibition," is set to air Sunday on PBS. I'd say his timing is just about right on this, given the recent nostalgia for the 20's of late. Or maybe I've just had too many $13 cocktails with 3 unpronounceable ingredients served by a guy in a vest with mutton chops.

LIFE presents an illustrated guide on how to eat sushi, complete with slightly embarrassing photos of Eva Mendes and Russell Simmon - they're just like us: they eat too much wasabi at once too!  Spoiler alert: California rolls are not from Japan.

Hide your wife. Hide your kids. Killer cantaloupes may not have done their worst yet, from Grub Street.

Anthony Bourdain breaks his own rules of travel on a family vacation and previews the upcoming New Orleans episode of "No Reservations." My kingdom for an oyster po' boy. 

 

 

Thursday Web Edibles

The future has arrived, and it's coated in sprinkles. An LA ice cream shop introduces the 24-hour cupcake ATM, via Eater. 

Thin Mints: available soon in candy bar form. Huffington Post Food confirms the existence of the Nestle Crunch Girl Scout Candy Bar. I can get behind the concept of Girl Scout cookies sans the paperwork or the high pressure sales situation - can you really say no when a co-worker's cute kid pops up unexpectedly with that lengthy form? I can. (But I won't speak for you).

CNN/Budget Travel runs down 15 rules of international food etiquette that might surprise you. Although you should already know better than to eat tacos with a fork and knife (ANYWHERE) or to turn down vodka in Russia (ANYTIME). 

A list of the nation's 50 fattiest foods by state from The Orlando Sentinel. The country's most artery-cloggin', obesity-inducin' items include bacon-wrapped meatloaf (Alabama), Turducken (South Carolina), the garbage plate (New York) and the Luther Burger (Georgia).

Dwell.com displays a series of aestheticized Seinfeld-inspired food posters. The black and white cookie, Monk's Diner, and ketchup and mustard in a single bottle (from Kramerica Industries) are among the subjects. These pretzels are making me thirsty!
