SNACK TIME: many frozen beers, the presidential arteries, parting ways with Philly Mag, dosas and other South Indian bites, the aesthetics of sugar

Every Wednesday, Meal Ticket pokes around the food blog world to see what's simmering.

-- PW throws down a Michelada Field Guide that has us longing for weather that justifies drinking that icy alchemy of beer, tomato juice and lime in the a.m. hours.

-- Obama doesn't actually carry arugula in his pocket to snack on, says Salon. The president's marginally high cholesterol is due to his completely American fondness for cheeseburgers and desserts. Via Grub Street Philly.

-- Brush up your resumes, wannabe critics. Joy Manning is stepping down as restaurant reviewer for Philly Mag and she's announced her new, totally cool job on her blog Oyster Evangelist.

-- Tiffin etc. will add a few South Indian dishes to their menu this Friday, notes The Insider. We'd like a medu vada for lunch - crispy lentil doughnuts with coconut chutney and sambar.

-- Design firm Jellio turns sweet childhood memories into furniture. Think candy-button benches, cupcake seats and a brand-new Candelier made from 5,000 hand-strung acrylic Gummi bears. Via Serious Eats.
