Here's another fun read: One Peppercorn, a blog "about the language of food, whether fictional or factual, historical or current" (that's from the blog and I can't think of a better way to describe it). What I love about it is how they manage to get a lot of depth into short posts. Still working thru the archives but I particularly liked the posts on chocolate soup and kale (not to worry, they're not served together).
And here's more fun with food geekery: Grant Achatz contemplates a gin & tonic bubble tea. It's an MG&T!
