Conservative gourmands will surely start salivating upon hearing that today marks the maiden publication of The New Croutonian: a journal of salad preparation and the arts, edited by myself. Here is a short menu of the mouthwatering essays you will discover generously slathered across the pages of issue one.
George Orwell: Thousand Island or Vinaigrette? by Theodore Dalrhubarb
Bacon Bits 1968-1973 by Stilton Kremer
Militant Islamic Chefs Will Steal Our Cucumbers If We Allow Them Into The Kitchen by Mark Foodsteyn
Waldorf Without Walnuts: New Salads at the Whitney by James Saucepanero
Arugula contra Romaine by Roger Scrouton
Shakespeare's "Dark Radish" by Brooke Oil
Notebook: Modern English Salads Are Brown and Disgusting by Anthony Dandelions
Why is it you never see Dandelions and Dalrhubarb together in the same place at the same time?
