Food Blog of the Week
Frugal Village
This frugal-minded website looks to be only a few months old, but it came at exactly the right time. The forums, full of real people with real money-saving strategies, are undoubtedly the highlight, but the articles are pretty dang solid, too.

Food Comedy of the Week
"Target Women: Diets"
Sarah Haskins strikes back.



Food Quote of the Week

“When I am faced with a beautiful, well-reared piece of meat, I don't want to stand back and admire it, I want to have full-blown unprotected sex; I didn't even get to first base with the pork.” – Toby Young, Top Chef

Food Video of the Week
