Bon Appetit magazine did an article on 25 Food Trends for 2013.  You could read the whole article here, but I've also summarized the trends below with my comments.

1)  The Paloma - this is a cocktail made with tequila and grapefruit-flavoured soda.  Ummm, yes please.  My love for grapefruit is well documented.

2)  Beet Juice - it's potent, but I love this stuff.  Beets are one of my favourite things to juice (next to grapefruits).

3)  Duck Eggs - I've never tried duck egg that I am aware of, but I suppose I'd give it a shot.  I like duck, and I like eggs.  Hmmmm.

4)  Cameras better suited to food photography - I like my cameras, but I am still learning how to use them.  What would really help the pics is some sunshine!  Bring on Spring!

5)  Kitchen Collaborations (musicians with coffee roasters, etc.) - Cool!  I am looking forward to seeing new products, etc..  As much as it pains me to admit this - Ed Hardy wine is actually quite good.

6)  Chicken to move in on the steak house - This is fine by me.  I'd be okay if I never ate another steak.

7)  Burmese Food - I have been lucky enough to enjoy Burmese food cooked by many Burmese women that live in my city, and it is to-die-for. 

8)  Food Documentaries - YES!!  I love food documentaries and have seen all the ones I've come across.

9)  Homemade Yogurt - Hmmm, perhaps.

10)  The Cemita sandwich (pork, chipotle puree, avacado, Oaxacan cheese, bun) - Mmm, hook me up!

11)  "How to Boil an Egg" cookbook - will it teach me to make an omelet?

12)  Opportunities to have hang time with chefs

13)  Gochujang (sriracha's new compitition) - Haha YES!  I love this list.  Gochujang rules!  My fridge and my belly would be very sad without it.

14)  Fernet Branca (an Italian digestive drink) - I'd give it a shot.  Hehe, puns.

15)  Fresh Horseradish - Well Christopher and I both love horseradish, so if we can find this stuff, I'm sure it will make an appearance on Everyday Foodie.

16)  Milling Flour - Haven't done this before, but I did buy the dry attachment for the Vita-Mix and it can grind flour.

17)  Eddie Huang - How come I've never heard of this guy!?  Have you?

18)  Tea - I love tea.  I thought it was already trendy.  My buddy Matt has been blogging about it for years.

19)  Stove-top Smokers - Hmmm, maybe.

20)  Dungeness Crab - Are these the hairy crabs that the serve at The Keg?  If so, I'm out.

21)  Bread as it's own course - Ha, isn't it already!?  ;-)  I would be happy if it was it's own meal.

22)  Indie Food Mags - pass.

23)  Blondies (are the new brownie) - I still haven't tried a blondie. 

24)  Sodastream Booze - I think those soda stream things are overrated and doubt I will ever buy one ... but did someone say booze?  Hmmm, this just got a lot more interesting.

25)  5 Restaurants to Watch (The Ordinary, Charleston; Animal, Los Angeles, Alder, NYC; Qui, Austin; Grace, Chicago) - Allysia, perhaps you can check out Qui and let us know what you think? ;-) 

And I'll leave you with a picture ...

Dinner last night was lobsta and rice!  I topped my rice with kimchi and gochujang (see # 13 above).
