What with histories of cod, salt, coffee, sugar, and other food substances currently one of the many minifads in the profession, this is a film whose time has come. Or so think a number of our colleagues, including Alan M. Taylor (No, not Alan S. Taylor. It’s very confusing around here; don’t even ask me about the two Ari Kelmans.) who got it from Andrew Sullivan.
I confess it took me too long to figure out what I was watching. If you need a cheat sheet, it’s here.

Bonus points for the thinly-veiled historical references, especially the burger/stroganoff “MAD” buildup.

Thank you for telling me that it took you a while, Eric. I kept finding that I was having to say, “oh shit, what is that? Stroganoff? Let’s see, that’s from where again?” and by that point we’d be back to hamburgers or bagels or something. Sort of like trying to follow a conversation in a language you’re *not quite* fluent in.
