August 15, 2012 The Missouri State Fair is full of places to eat. If you show up around noon, you're bound to see a trail of people outside the Beef House, and then there is the Beef Depot right behind it. While getting a great steak or hamburger is a one of many memories at the Missouri State Fair, in recent years people have also made time to stop in the Beef Showcase that is organized by the Missouri Cattlewoman's Association.
August 10, 2012 The first day of the Missouri State Fair is always an interesting one. You usually see huge crowds at the Missouri State Fair for things like the Grand Opening or Two Buck Bonanaza Day, where not only do you get into the Missouri State Fair for $2, you can get deals through the Missouri State Fair. This first day was no exception.
To help fuel his way to a record Olympic 18 gold medals, swimmer Michael Phelps eats over 12,000 calories a day while training and competing. Presumably, Phelps doesn’t wolf down all of these calories in one sitting.
Furious Pete, a competitive eater and YouTube personality, most certainly did consume over 12,000 calories in one giant meal.
August 6, 2012 My father had a saying growing up; "You could go all over the world and see some amazing things, but take the time to see what's in your backyard too." I decided to pack up the kids and head to The Peach Tree Farm in Boonville on our way to Columbia.
August 6, 2012 I have been known to love spicy food and spicy sauces over the years. However I have to admit that mild has been the way I roll in recent years. I took the family out to Boonville and Columbia last weekend and tried Buckhingham's Smokehouse BBQ. I am not going to do a formal review of the place, but I do want to talk about the sauces.
