Oh hey, it's the NYT Mag Food & Drink issue

POSTED: Friday, October 12, 2012, 3:38 PM

Well, it may not be about Philly, but if you're anything like us, the NYT Magazine is what you'll be reading this weekend! In their own words, "This year’s Food & Drink issue is about obsessions, great and small, from eating reindeer steaks in Greenland to one former tech mogul’s pursuit of the perfect buffalo mozzarella," but we actually think this appraisal does the issue a bit of a disservice. Regardless of how that falls on your ear, there is plenty here to keep you busy. Amongst others:

Mark Bittman visits California's Central Valley and raises some questions about how our farming fantasies compare to reality. "When I was a New York Times Restaurant Critic..." compiles snippets of insights from heavyweight critics Miller, Reichl, Grimes, Bruni, and Sifton. A passel of first-person "Culinary Quests." Michael Pollan, of course, talks food politics; also unsurprisingly, Chris Kimball takes food awfully seriously.

But most importantly, here's this strangely absorbing slideshow of presidents eating things.
