Good Eats in the Classroom

Posted April 16, 2007 By Dave Thomer

Are you pondering what I’m pondering?

Probably not, unless you’re pondering the best example of Alton Brown’s Good Eats series to show in a philosophy class tomorrow. But I think I need something to visualize the pragmatist idea of education being connected to life, and while we’re at it, maybe we’ll learn something about ice cream.

And hey, the show earned a Peabody Award. So there has to be some value to it, right?

If this seems like a frivolous post, my apologies. My neck is killing me – I think this storm waged an indirect attack on my spine along with the direct assault on the windows.
