Urban vegetarian hot spot, “It’s Only Natural”, located on Main Street in Middletown, CT, offers a fun atmosphere for both children and adults.  The wait staff is friendly and they let you draw on the tables with chalk while you wait for your meal.  (What more could you ask for?)  M-T there are drink specials – oh and the food is tasty!  If you like spicy, try the taco salad. 

Denver reporting! Tonight we found that Colorado has captured the concept of combining the bar experience with the movie theater experience unlike anywhere seen before.

Envision this; it’s Friday night, you’ve had a long work week, the cafeteria you ate at served ‘not eating’ at lunch, your starving and you have a hot date. You were supposed to make dinner reservations and plan something fun but you dropped the ball and don’t know if you can pull this off. Solution? Movie Tavern. Buy your tickets at the door, have a couple drinks at the bar while waiting for your movie to begin, find some seats in the theater, order some inexpensive yet tasty food from the movie waitress, and have a few more beers while watching your movie. Experience enjoyed by all. **Caution ** Alcohol and sappy loves stories may result in tears. Choose your movie wisely.

Greetings from Denver! This month headquarters approved a special addition which required food specialists to travel 2000 miles west to the lovely lands of Denver, Colorado. Foodenator experienced many new venues but only want to emphasize on the most important lessons learned on this exploration.

First and foremost if you are eating in landlocked state, especially one bordering a state as large as Texas, stay away from the seafood! Think it’s fresh? Think again. Secondly, if you happen to be eating in a Thai restaurant and the waiter serves you Thai coffee with chunks of floating cream, this is not Colorado Thai custom; like the seafood this will also make you sick. Foodenator recommends sending it back. Now that we’ve got that out of the way lets move on to a more positive note – Mexican food seems to be a fairly safe bet when dining in Colorado. Whether you fancy the fast food Chipotle or your upscale Tamayo, you can’t go wrong. Tamayo serves the very best mango mojito ever created. Between the fresh mint leaves, fresh mango and a hint of lime it a perfect mix. Here’s what a Mango Mojito looks like. Try to recreate this in your home but it won’t be the same.

The human body consists anywhere for 55%-80% water.  Water is used for cooking, cleaning, swimming, drinking and has many other every day uses….but really, what is it?  It’s a tasteless, clear, and odorless liquid.  So what makes water, water? Scientist say water is two hydrogen atoms combined with one oxygen atom but really, what does that mean?  Is that like one part margarita mix, two parts tequilla?  Well readers, I don’t really know.

Lately there’s been a lot of hype over blood oranges.  Foodenator decided to find out why.  As you can see the blood orange looks just like any other orange from the outside, it’s similar in size and it’s orange, the differences are shown from the inside.  Look closely, the blood orange has a red, heart-like shape in the middle of each piece.  Blood oranges also have no seeds (possible cousins with the neutered apple?  Who knows.) 

The blood orange also smells much different then your average orange.  When the orange is opened it smells like a cross between an orange and a grape fruit, however, the taste is much sweeter.  The blood orange does not have have same “bite” as a typical citrus tasting orange, its much more smooth.  Overall the blood orange is a very enjoyable fruit.  Would probably go well in medium shade of beer – Foodenator recommends Blue Moon.

98% fat free in this case also implies that this soup is 98% tasteless. Food experts find that only 2% of this soup contains clam chowder while the other 98% consists of watered down cream-like substance. At first one might guess that the clams possibly sunk to the bottom of the cup but after further research experts only find more cream-like substance. This soup could be comparable to heating up a glass of milk, tossing in chunks of bread to be absorbed and heavily salting. Don’t buy this soup unless you enjoy extremely boring flavors.
