Tastespotting is a wonderful visual blog for food enthusiasts, by the makers of notcot.

Choose milk. Choose caramels. Choose La Paille D'Or . Choose Boba Tea with Milk. Choose Creamy Sea Urchin Over Rice, choose lobster, beer, tapioca and baby cakes. Choose wontons, Meyer lemons, and shiitake mushrooms. Choose fNiu Rou Mian. Choose Chocolate Orange Almond Cookies. Choose Dhal. Choose hocolate covered parmigiano reggiano. Choose marmalade. C... But why would I want to do a thing like that? I chose not to choose life. I chose somethin' else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who needs reasons when you've got a heroin blog?

Now *that* is a stunning food blog. Wow. Exquisite, mouth watering, succulent images and great topics. Thanks jonson.

I've been looking for LU La Paille D'Or aux Framboises for years in NYC with no luck. couldn't remember the name and there they are on tastespotting blog. Great. The author of that site linked thinks they are filled with strawberry jam but it's raspberry. Fraises in French is strawberries and framboises is rapsberries.

And NotCot is excellent too, packed with unexpected cyber treats of all kinds like this bunny wave.

Thanks jonson, this is great. I've never heard of the 'immature' eggs before; they look weirdly delicious.

Hm. I just visited, and the first image on the site was not, strictly speaking, a foodstuff. Yes, you could eat it, but it looked far too expensive and fancy to be baked into a batch of brownies.
