True to their name, Indulge Caramel's new sauces are an indulgence. Each one, plain or hot, is rich, decadent, and full of buttery caramel flavor ($6.50 for 10 oz). And, while they do contain corn syrup (these are packaged dessert sauces after all), each one has only seven ingredients. The plain version, which is simply called The Sauce, features ...

One more sign I may be a food fake: As much as I really love crab, I have never managed to muster the nerve to cook live hard-shells. (Soft-shells? No problem; I can scissor off their faces and aprons without flinching, knowing they then won't try to fight their way off the burner.) But I still always keep crab boil around. And really use it this ...

For a basic tailgate all you need is a game, a parking lot, and a group of people with food. But if you want to do it right you'll need to have the hottest gear. Mark your hot dogs with the name of your favorite team and magically unroll a table where you can eat your feast. Keep hot wings hot and icy beers cold. We want you to stand tall while ...

Homegrown and store-bought garlic: Can you tell them apart? It's no secret that I love garlic, but I have yet to grow my own. My parents grew their own garlic this year and during a recent visit, they gifted me with a few bulbs to take home. The homegrown garlic was unlike the generic type found in grocery stores. The homegrown garlic was smaller, ...

Could fish pops be the answer to the summer heatwave we're sweating through? Well, although they are shipped frozen, Sushi Poppers are meant to be eaten at room temperature. You might want to try to wait the suggested two hours! The handy packs make sushi easy to eat on the go, and Evan Kaye, CEO and Co-Founder of Popper Foods LLC, claims they are ...

If I had to describe my mental state right now with a food word, slumgullion would be the one. My brain is not quite fried, more stewed, as I try to sort out what time zone I'm in while our windows are being covered in plywood for restoration during the muggiest heat wave I can remember. On top of it all, my hard drive with all my photos is AWOL ...

Iced coffee and I have a lukewarm relationship. Cold brewed coffee, while delicious, isn't a drink you can make on the cuff; it requires forethought and planning. And brewing delicious hot coffee and diluting it with ice seems so wrong. (Yes, I will choose hot coffee over iced even in the summertime.) So I approached the new Starbucks Via Iced ...

A friend of mine recently emailed me frantically requesting me to please buy her fiance Mars Bars since I am in England right now. She continued by saying,''he claims those made in England taste differently than those made in the States.'' I can't pretend to be an expert as to how Mars Bars differ in these two countries, but I can totally relate. ...

We've already detailed the worst of the 2010 Summer Fancy Food Show. Now, we're showcasing the best. There were many new products in everyday items such as meats and cheeses but due to space, we are only presenting products that seemed truly unique or were deemed huge improvements in their category. With so many candies to choose from, it is hard ...

The 2010 Summer Fancy Food Show in New York City ends today. With more than 180,000 foods and beverages showcased from around the world, even the most experienced visitor can be overwhelmed. Wandering the narrow aisles for hours can be both mouthwatering and stomach-turning. A full day of tasting yesterday allowed us to narrow down some of the ...
