Pop culture periscope: New food shows


(Click for larger image)

For my birthday a couple months ago, I went to a farm-to-table restaurant that served a dish called "Pulled pig face." More recently, I found myself reading an article touting the sustainable virtues of hunting, and the hunter's philosophy of respecting the animal. I'm as much of a fan of The Omnivore's Dilemma as anyone, but there is some comedic disconnect in how we talk about caring for the animals we find so delicious -- i.e., if you really respect your dog, you probably won't eat its face. Just saying.
