McDonalds Goes Moroccan
Aug 28th
McDonald’s Restaurants in Morocco have introduced the “McArabia” which is a sandwich with cumin spiced ground beef served on a flatbread pita-style pocket.
From GlobalPost here:
Walk into a McDonald’s in Morocco and you’ll find a sandwich you can’t get anywhere else in the world: a cumin-spiced flatbread creation called the McArabia Tagine.
The McArabia was launched across the Middle East in 2003, but this year the 23 McDonald’s franchises in Morocco further localized the recipe by tweaking the seasoning and sauce.
“Honestly it tastes Moroccan,” said Noor El Ghoumari, 34, a man who had just paid 53 dirhams, or about $6.60, for a meal with one of the ground beef sandwiches in Rabat on a recent afternoon.

My wife cooked up this basket of Candied Cupcake Pops for my pal’s birthday. They were a big hit! Thanks to Bakerella for the recipe.

Aug 20th
After 77 years of pouring beer and tending bar, Angelo Cammarata is quitting.
From the PostGazette here:
Angelo Cammarata, whom the Guinness Book of World Records recognized as the world’s longest-serving bartender, is coming up on last call.
At least at Cammarata’s Cafe, the West View watering hole where he’s been pouring for most of his 77 years of tending bar.
“Camm,” as people call him, started serving beer at his father’s North Side grocery the moment Prohibition ended at midnight on April 7, 1933. The memory is as clear to him as the strike of the library clock that signaled it was time to start opening bottles of Fort Pitt.
Way to go Angelo. You’ve undoubtedly made a lot of Joes very happy over the years.

Leave it to the King to be so helpful to let it’s patrons know which soda flavor tastes best with which whopper burger. Alas I realize I have been doing it all wrong up til now.

Aug 9th
Jack Daniels Distiller , originally uploaded by BelchSpeak.
Sad Day. Jimmy Bedford, the former Master Distiller of Jack Daniels died at age 69. From MSNBC here:
Jimmy Bedford, the slender and silver-haired former master distiller of the Jack Daniel’s whiskey during a 40-year career with the company, died Friday. He was 69.
His body was found outside a barn at his farm in Lynchburg, apparently the victim of a heart attack, company officials said.
Bedford retired in March 2008 after spending 20 years as the master distiller supervising the entire operation at the 143-year-old distillery in Lynchburg, the oldest registered one in the United States. Among his duties was tasting the whiskey before it was sent to retailers.
This master craftsman will be missed.

Aug 3rd
Found this over on Fark which linked to Insanewiches.Com here. Its the Rubik’s Cube sandwich. The Rubik’s Cube has confounded us for years. Maybe the sandwich version of this puzzling brain teaser will do the same. The Rubix Cubewich contains cubes of pastrami, kielbasa, pork fat, salami, and two types of cheddar.
