I'm Obsessed With The Nashville Hot Chicken That Almost Killed Me
As a baby I gnawed on lemons with joy. I‘ve never been kind to my taste buds. Chain-eating Warhead candies, nibbling habaneros, taking dares on wasabi globs. Short of the really inhumane—nuking your innards with genetic monstrosity Scoville-freak peppers, which some people do, voluntarily, on camera...
Chicken Nugget Smackdown: Wendy's vs. Burger King vs. McDonald's
Little kids can be cool, but there are a lot of obvious arguments against parenthood. Children are demonstrably shouty, snotty, and wobbly, and they are rumored to be very expensive to maintain. It has also been widely reported that children have poor taste in television. These are among the reasons...
The Royals Have Chickenpox
Two Royals players have been infected with chickenpox and have been quarantined, and the team is monitoring other potentially at-risk players. It’s sort of funny—it’s the last thing you’d expect a ballplayer to miss extended time for—but it can seriously affect adults, and with the playoffs a month ...
How To Make Perlo, The Deep South's Best Take On Chicken And Rice
Here’s the thing about South Carolina: if you drive far enough inland from the ocean, you will run out of fingers on which to count highway billboards threatening you with ultimatums like “Accept Jesus Or Burn In Hell.” Not a whole lot to recommend the place once you get out of earshot of the surf....
How To Roast A Chicken, And Become A Grownup At Last
Roasting a chicken is the last threshold to full coming of age. Before you have done it, you are a fledgling. After, you are an elder....

How To Make Chicken Salad The Star Of The Show, For Once
Your whole life, chicken salad has been there for you. When you had leftover chicken, drying out in the refrigerator, and no appetite for it, ol' chicken salad was there to make it interesting and appetizing again. Ol' reliable. Silent and steady and dependable. A closer....
Chick-Fil-A's Grilled Chicken: The Emilio Estevez Of Chicken Sandwiches
Eating at Chick-fil-A is always a personal conflict. How do you decide between its super-friendly employees and quality food on the one hand, and the antiquated social views at the top of the company on the other? For the sake of loyal Foodspinners, I put that conflict aside to to help mediate an...
BBQ Chicken Pizza Smackdown: Pizza Hut Vs. Domino's
Several years ago, I came across a ranking of careers based on overall desirability. "President of the United States" was somewhere in the lower-middle of the pack, because it offers the most power and prestige, but also has the highest workplace fatality rate, terrible job security, brutal hours, a...
Fried Chicken Sandwich Smackdown: Wendy's Vs. KFC
Fried chicken is the best. The main reason I had to stop reading about death row inmates' last meals is that every single thing about this sentence so far is ghastly; I was also secondarily appalled by how many of them forgot to request fried chicken. I understand that if they were good decision-mak...
Here Is A Chicken Playing Baseball
British Pathé, apparently seeking a permanent end to workplace productivity, recently uploaded an enormous amount of material, much of it previously unseen by the public, to Youtube. Among it is this clip of a chicken named Barnyard Casey playing baseball before a crowd of oddly well-dressed spectat...

And we kinda guessed that would be the case (leg men, every last one of you), so we asked for your favorite preparation. Y...
Chicken Thighs Are So Hot Right Now*
It all started last week, when The Kitchn announced that chicken thighs are where it's at. "There needs to be a revolution in the poultry world," they insisted, and followed with a pretty strong argument to forget about those breasts because "chicken thighs deserve the real love" by posting a recipe...
You're Eating It Wrong: Chicken Wings
Yesterday we taught you how to make wings for your Super Bowl party, but now the big day is here, and, holy shit, how do I eat these things? The answer: Not how you've been doing it, weirdo!...
How To Make Wings, Instead Of Letting The Pizza Dude Do It For You
So the Super Bowl is tomorrow, and just as Super Bowl viewership is essentially non-optional for Americans who do not wish to be regarded with open suspicion by their acquaintances and coworkers, the provision of chicken wings is essentially non-optional for Super Bowl party hosts who do not wish to...
How To Cook Chicken Cutlets, And Give Yourself A Reason To Keep Living
These are dark times, friends. Literally! It's dark as hell all the time, because it is winter, and everything is polar vortices and bitter bullying winds and frostbite and uncontrollable sobbing and making a fort out of couch cushions and hiding inside the fort shrouded in sweaters and jackets an...
