Top University Dining Services Ranked

Wednesday, April 25th, 2012

For many high school seniors, May 1 is “D” Day – the day they must decide which college they plan to attend in the fall. With such high stakes on the line, we’re offering a tiebreaker – the place that serves the best food. Using as a starting point U.S. News & World Report’s Top 20 Universities, they’re re-ranked by The Daily Meal according to their dining services, and pared down again on the Today Show, which offers up six of the top 20.

Food Plays Major Role in ‘The Hunger Games’

Thursday, March 29th, 2012

When Jack White was an actor, he spent lots of time playing with food or eating it on screen and backstage. Now, as a food stylist, he’s the one providing the virtual victuals for the camera to pan across as the characters partake. White’s most recent work is seen in “The Hunger Games” where food plays a central role as an extravagant overindulgence, a wild way to survive and a weapon that brings down the enemy.
