Man Vs. Food is a funny name, sorta, and not. Don’t like to think of food as part of a battle, but must admit food often presents a challenge. Too big, too weird, too expensive, too, too, too. Sometimes, as my friend Jane says, “It is all too much”. (She wasn’t talking about food, but no point in splitting hairs.)
At any rate, Man Vs. Food is a Food Network show that I am supposed to be watching. Monday night they featured a middle-of-the-country size sandwich, the Dagwood at Ohio Deli in Columbus. In my house it is Humans Vs. TV so we do not have cable. The humans were ahead at last count.
My eyes were opened to Columbus by That Tall Handsome Sandwich Man in Ohio who posted about the Thurman Cafe a while back. Columbus has Nancy’s, Jeni’s Ice Cream, Pistacia Vera and Rosendale’s, for example.
When the Olestra chip was debuted, focus panels were run first in Columbus. Those smart Ohioans rejected Olestra and that is good enough for me.
