Hammerdown of the Gods!
The editors have noticed a strange marketing phenomena: passing off foodstuffs as holy. The first was the Bible Bar, a PowerBar(tm) substitute ("ironic" - religious editor) which starts from a "recipe" of blessed foods found in Deuteronomy 8:8 wheat, barley, honey, figs, olive oil, grapes and pomegranates. We first encountered the Bible Bar at Trinity College's bookstore. Then the editors were checking out Trader Joe's in anticipation of the big blog aniversery bash and we find Ezekiel 4:9 Sprouted Grain bread. It too takes its cue from a Bible verse, incorporating wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet and spelt. Mmmmmm, spelt! And when we heard that Monz' lunch was the same today as yesterday, we suspect if we asked him how, in light of the above, he would describe his lunch, he would answer "Zeus!"
