award-winning beef rib

  • ja-screens_hungrytodd1
    It’s raw, it’s gluten-free, it’s lettuce! Even a raging meatophile like Hungry Todd Rungy knows it’s best to start with some leafy greens.
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd2
    See, just like we said: Looking good.
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd5
    Yes, Hungry Todd, we see what you did there.
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd7
    Hat doffed like a gentleman, well-manicured Pinkie of Poise boldly extended, Hungry Todd Rungy is the epitome of stylish ingestion.

    Beyond Thunderlettuce: Hungry Todd’s first encounter with cranberry-and-almond-embellished kale salad, that favorite of hipster foodies from Portland to … other parts of Portland.

    “But … what if the non-GMO-using single estate that this stuff is from … is inside Fukushima?”
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd14-2
    Fuck it. It’s ALL good.
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd16
    It’s a bit difficult for anyone to look good while eating chips and queso …
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd18
    …damned difficult, at times, especially when it’s as tasty as what they serve at Torchy’s Tacos …
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd17
    … but Hungry Todd nails it.

    Man bites dog! Sweet Betsy Ross, is there anything more American than this?
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd23
    Why, this is no hot dog … this appears to be an award-winning beef rib from Micklethwait Craft Meats.
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd26-2
    But even such a prodigious chunk of flesh is no match for the mighty masticating maw of Hungry! Todd! Rungy!
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd28
    And, always, the finger. For America!
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd41-2
    Mmmmm, the famous pork bun from East Side King.
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd42
    You could eat it like something out of Paul Qui’s nightmares …
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd43-2
    … or you could show the restraint and suave demeanor of a true eating professional.
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd44
    Or not.
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd47-2
    Consider the sauce, my son … always consider the sauce.
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd32
    And some Valentine’s chocolates for dessert? Hungry Todd doesn’t mind if he does.
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd30
    Yup, doesn’t mind at all. Although we’ve heard that he really has his eye on a box of Girl Scout cookies.
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd33
    Yes, literally.
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd34
    [no caption; let it rest]
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd36
    “Here’s looking at you, kid. For America!”
  • ja-screens_hungrytodd49-2
    And a simple wedge of lime to complete the meal and freshen the breath – just like a champ.

    Thanks, Hungry Todd Rungy!
