Food Trends for 2006

The greek prophet Cassandra was given the gift of prophecy but, tragically, they would only be calamitous and they would not be believed. Were she with us now would we see the return of the frozen pizza sub or Chicketti in 2006? Difficult to say.

Bon Appétit magazine in the United States have had their ears licked by snakes and came up with their best 2006 trends. As well as Tofu and Whole Fish, Pork and Beans make an appearance. If this is apropos the popularity of cowboy film Brokeback Mountain, let's hope it ends more happily than Top Gun jackets.

Any bets for over here? (or does onyone know where all those jackets went?)
