The Whole World in My Tummy

Every four years, the people of earth set aside their religious, territorial, and cultural differences and funnel all of their hate through soccer.

In honor of this year’s World Cup, I will eat, drink, or make a meal inspired by each country in the the entire 33 team field…What’s that?…Belgium is out? They just packed up and left? Well fine, who needs them anyway.  Now, where was I, oh yes, I will eat, drink, or make a meal inspired by each country in the entire 32 team field by the final game on July 11.

Easy you think? Well because only one Scandinavian and three Asian teams qualified I’m at a serious hometown disadvantage. If anyone knows of a good Slovakian restaurant or Slovenian recipe, please let me know.

Now, if you’re asking yourself, what does this guy knows about international cuisine, I confess not that much. However, may I ask you what you know about doing your job? Yeah, that’s what I thought. We’re in the same boat you and I, so I won’t tell anyone if you don’t.

We’ll be starting on Friday with World Cup host South Africa, and their delicious KFC Popcorn Chicken.
