Food roundup for october 30

Here’s what was being written about today in the world of food and dining news:

• This week’s installment of Handle the Proof features a black vodka perfect for, “gimmick martinis and seasonal (meaning Halloween) cocktails.” If you haven’t already grabbed yourself a bottle of Blavod, now’s the time.

Both gimmicky and delicious.

​

• Voracious offers up some words of advice to vegetarians looking for more options when dining at non-veg friendly restaurants. If you’re going to be picky, at least call ahead and let the restaurant know in advance.

• Stephen Colbert discusses the pumpkin shortage and offers some tips on how you can beat “Arma-gourd-on.”

• And lastly, in another thrilling edition of midnight munches, Eating Our Words teaches us how to make a Nutella Sandwich. Though judging from the name we’re pretty sure we could have figured this one out on our own.
