    Craving: Bacon Shrimp Pizza
    September 2nd, 2010 | Cravings | View Comments

    When I lived in Oregon, there was a pizza place that used to put baby shrimp on their pepperoni pies. This is basically that same pizza with one more wonderful thing; bacon. What we have here is a chive-garlic thin crust pizza topped with shrimp, bacon, red peppers and edam all smothered in cheese. Really, what more could you ask for? (Thx FPD)

    Couple Gets Married, “In-N-Out” Style
    September 2nd, 2010 | Hit-or-Miss | View Comments

    Don’t let the title of this post lead you into thinking this young beautiful couple got married outside an In-N-Out truck, they did not. We’re looking at Robert and Joelle Duff at their wedding reception (following an actual wedding ceremony at the First Lutheran Church in down town Fullerton). What was on the menu? You guessed it! An In-N-Out truck was locked in to cater their friends and family on their special day. Gotta respect their love for good food and good times. Best of luck into the future Robert and Joelle!

    Pay for your Starbucks Bill with a Blackberry
    September 2nd, 2010 | News, Products | View Comments

    Beginning September 2nd, 2010, Blackberry users will have the ability to use the Starbucks Card Mobile App on their particular devies. While this app has been available since September of last year for iPhone and iPod touch users, starting today, Blackberry users will be able to reload their Starbucks payment cards, monitor their rewards cards and pay for their purchases at 16 stores in Seattle and the Silicon Valley region.

    It’s notable to understand that the Blackberry version of this application is not a mere port from the iPhone, but an entirely Blackberry-intuitive interface and control scheme built specifically for Blackberry Bold, Curve, Storm and Tour users. To load this app, hit up the Starbucks mobile website. (Thx Mashable)

    A Day at Domino’s Pizza Headquarters (Ann Arbor, MI)
    September 1st, 2010 | Adventures | View Comments

    Domino’s Pizza, founded in 1960 by Tom Monaghan, saw its birth as a small pizza store in Ypsilanti, Michigan. Some 50 years later, Domino’s Pizza now stands as the second-largest pizza chain in the United States, laying claim over 9,000 corporate and franchised stores in all 50 U.S. states and markets across the world. For most of us, we’ve grown up with the brand, so it’s doubtful we often think twice about the brand…the people behind it, their creative process, the corporate culture, and the mass production of an individual product like a pizza. What better way to get behind the scenes than to jump in head first and check out their corporate head quarters in Ann Arbor, MI and one of their nearby production facilities? That’s exactly what we did.

    Within the past year, Domino’s has taken some considerable risk in overhauling their core product…their pizza. The new recipe was coupled with some rather interesting and commendable marketing tactics consisting of bringing the brand’s taste problems and critiques to the forefront, voicing complaints about their “bland” tasting pizza of yester-year and subsequently responded with this brand new recipe. Results were reportedly fabulous, as Domino’s new recipe led the company into consecutive quarters of positive growth. During our visit, we got to learn more about their upcoming initiatives, some new products and technologies, as well as become a direct part of their goal of brand transparency into the future.
