MEME MONDAY: FOOD NETWORK BLOG

There's a lot of food out there on those crazy interwebs and this feature, Meme Monday, highlights places dedicated to it, be they favored food-related websites, reference sites or, gasp, blogs.

Recently while researching one recipe or another, I happened onto the Food Network website where I came across a new blog that they've started. Well, at this point it's not so new, it seems to have been started in July but it's still interesting.

The blog, "Food Network: Behind the Scenes in the Kitchen and on the Road," shows pictures of blue-jacketed employees doing behind the scenes things like packaging unused produce for City Harvest, shopping, doing photo shoots, plating and doing all those things that happen in between takes.

It's an interesting addition to this food juggernaut. A friend of mine from school, Sarah (who will be profiled soon here on Kitchen Toro) just recently joined the Food Network family. She's doing prep-work for Iron Chef America. Their New York headquarters seems to be located in Chelsea on Ninth Avenue. Maybe we'll see her on the blog one of these days.
