Does anybody have a recipe for orange soda? You know, one that tastes like the commercially-made products (i.e. Sunkist, Fanta, Slice, and Orange Crush). I tried Googling it, but all I found were mixed drinks or recipes using orange juice or concentrate and a commercially-made soft drink. I...

Well obviously, as long as the cannoli shell is intact, it's still a cannoli, whether it be savory or sweet (sweet usually, though).

Sounds great, only I'd do without the spinach, and substitute chicken broth with pork broth wherever I can find it. I once had a Spanish lentil and chorizo soup at my college at a party in honor of Saint Dominic de Guzman.

Hey, if you can stuff a cannoli with mascarpone instead of ricotta cheese, I guess you can stuff it with cake icing. You're right about the traditional cannoli thing, but many chefs have broken with traditions and tried new things, just like the Iron Chefs do.

I have an idea! Stuff cannoli shells with coarse white cake icing. It's a fast and easy way to make cannolis. You can also mix the icing with cocoa powder, chocolate chips (any kind), or food coloring, if you wish. If you love licking the icing off the cake with your finger, you'll love...

Not for me. Sugar substitutes like Splenda have a funny aftertaste. If you like making it, enjoy! But just thinking about this recipe, let alone tasting it, makes me think of vomitting.

Anyway, I hear that corn syrup is pretty bad for your health compared to sugar or honey. Then again, we're not here to live longer, are we?

Hmmm...If I were you, I would omit tofu and use a recipe that includes milk or cream, or both, and requires an ice cream maker.

Spinach you say? If I made that recipe, I would do without it. I like it by itself with butter and salt, almost like Popeye, who has it plain out of a can.

What? You like the idea of a salty pie crust? Well, you've got your own tastes, while I've got mine. If you think you like it, enjoy!

Let's not get carried away now. Anyway, as Emeril Lagasse says, there's good fried food and bad fried food. I am not committed to using animal fats or vegetable oil for frying, but I would coat or dip the foods in the least amount of batter possible for frying, and fry with healthier oils...

That might work. It's not that unusual. Emeril Lagasse once stuffed red onions with cream cheese or a mixture including it.

I have two recipes, one for battered and fried mozzarella sticks, and one for battered and fried onion rings. Want to see them?:chef:

How about hot dogs?
