Craig’s Meats, a La Crosse-area meat shop that serves some odd animals, will be featured on Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern. General Mills is launching a Betty Crocker-themed meal delivery service in the greater Twin Cities area. A chef rave for the banh mi at Ha Tien on University Avenue in St. Paul. A taste of Mexico at Marissa’s Supermarket and Bakery on Eat Street. And a proposed bill may help ease health code restrictions that make some community cookoff contests a legal minefield (pictured above: an entry in the Twin Cities German Immersion School’s 2010 Auflauf Contest).
