Comment o’ the Week!

Okay you guys, this week’s competition for Comment o’ the Week was stiff indeed! Thanks to everyone who nominated their favorite by clicking the little arrow and responding with “COTW!” Drumroll!

From a Quickies post:

From the PETA article (emphasis mine): “Of course, your fans would swoon at the idea of eating CloFu, but what interests us most is that we would attract many people who don’t try tofu because they worry that it would be bland or that they wouldn’t know how to cook it.”

How, exactly, does flavoring tofu like celebrity sweat solve the problem of people not knowing how to cook it?

“Oh, it’s CLOONEY flavored tofu – clearly I should cook it the same way I cook other Clooney flavored things!”

Congrats, Amanda, you win the ability to choose next week’s Wednesday Afternoon Inquisition question! Please use the contact form to let us know what you’d like.

Happy Friday everyone!

  1. @weatherwax: Totally cute!

    @Amanda: My gravatar wants to know if your gravatar wants to hang out sometime. Maybe catch a bite of lab-block and catch a late screening of Ratatouille, or Stuart Little (or Willard if your tastes run a little darker)?

  2. I feel honored. ;) Now I’ll have to come up with something… hmmm… I’ll have to rub both brain cells together for this one.

    And thank you for the compliments on my gravatar. :) It started out as a fox (my last name), and I used to draw it on everything. I cut the tail off for the smaller picture (ouch!), and I like the way it’s interpreted differently by people. Mousies are adorables, too.

    Also, I changed my username to avoid confusion between me and the other (real? official?) Amanda. Whee!

    Now, off to think…
