Big fan of what @DrinkProxies is doing. Def my favorite NA wine and love the branding (especially vs the Acid League branding of their OG products)

Acid League has been killing it
their wine proxies extension was so fucking genius
now they are spinning out collabs with the likes of James Beard Award winners like Sean Brock (also in Chef’s table)
the company is Canadian but has
been growing exponentially in US

This has neither the juicy access nor the new insight to mitigate its slavish and tired devotion to Ineffable Male Culinary Genius which just needs to ... Die out as the subject of tweets let alone a long profile that boils down to “Hagiography! Hooray!” vanityfair.com/style/2020/02…

Hey @Delta it's me again!
Remember that long talk we had about me being in recovery and you continually awarding me alcohol?
Well I just made Diamond status and this is how you're celebrating my 250,000 miles with you.

FYI we do NOT need another Batali comeback story for a while.

Considering food in terms of art maps some interesting terrain! Aesthetics are interesting! Also: uncritically comparing chefs to artists perpetuates a myopic, reductive idea of greatness. Me on chefs, artists and “great” for @taste_cooking tastecooking.com/he-cooks-sh…
