Food Blob: Drink Up

· For the curious: It takes heavy psychedelics to get people to drink McDonald’s coffee in Sweden. Here, it just takes about 10 minutes of panhandling on the corner. And you say that freedom isn’t free. Pfft. [SeriousEats]

FoodBlob: All That And A Bag Of Chips

· Philadelphia Brewing Co. is coming out with a new beer is just a week or two, but the beer remains unnamed. The ingredients leaked on Foobooz.
· This is worse than the subway-french fry fight, so brace yourself. A 43-year old man was stabbed and killed early Sunday morning in South Philly. Apparently an argument […]
