Hey, check it out: Food bloggers chronicle their delicious obsessions. Here’s the bit about us:
“Another oft-cited blog is Adam Roberts’s the Amateur Gourmet, this year’s ”humor” winner. It’s easy to see why: Aside from the site’s snappy prose, its ”Saturday Night Live”-worthy comedy sketch mpegs, such as ”Great Moments in Musical Theater Featuring Eggs” and ”Project Sourdough,” are hilarious. ”Though I don’t make money at all,” Roberts remarks, ”I love knowing that there’s an audience.”
It was Roberts’s Janet Jackson breast cupcake photo essay, featured on CNN, that brought his blog instant fame. He originally stumbled into blogging as a law student (he’s since abandoned that for an MFA in dramatic writing at New York University). Cooking shows led him to his own kitchen experiments and eventually to Chowhound.com — the low-tech, less snazzy grandfather of the whole online food phenomenon.”
