Remember the "five second rule" for when you dropped some food on the floor? This Harold McGee article in today's Times might make you change what you do during those five seconds. His advice for version 2.0: "If you drop a piece of food, pick it up quickly, take five seconds to recall that just a few bacteria can make you sick, then take a few more to think about where you dropped it and whether or not it’s worth eating."

Coming Soon: On Food and Cooking, 20th Anniversary Edition
Via Butter Pig: The new 20th Anniversary edition of Harold McGee's monumental treatise, On Food and Cooking, is about to hit the shelves. Our own research fails to pin down the release date: Buy.com says November 1, BookkooB says November 23, the publisher says merely "11/2004", and Amazon says nothing at all. Wherever you find it, Gothamist heartily recommends picking up this book as soon as you can. McGee's treatise on the science of cooking and ingredients has been a mainstay of professional chefs for decades, and the new edition is said to be significantly expanded and updated. We learn something new every time we pick up the old edition, so we can't wait to see what the new one has to offer.
