Bobby Flay’s sixteen spice rub is going on every food I eat from here on out.

No joke. If you can find all the ingredients, you should make a giant batch and keep it around at all time.

It’s even good on giant tapeworms.

It really adds robust flavor to your intestinal parasites.

It’s even good on vegetables.

    I think you can blame your headache on the herculean task of gathering all those ingredients! but…. I’m salivating here, and that ain’t good for the keyboard.

    16 spices? Are you sure there isn’t room for a couple more?

    Looks crazy good. And the tapeworm? Just crazy.

    vera, i’ll have to pay more attention to my photo titles for your amusement from now on.

    nick, from the mesa grill cookbook, i’ll check the page number when i get home.

    forkful, tasted crazy good. i’m glad the spice rub made so much; we’re having this again next week for sure.
