Recently, Food Guy Greg Patent attended the National Spelling Bee, where his grandson and a S-M-O-R-G-A-S-B-O-R-D of other teenagers competed for a chance to spell out a G-O-U-L-A-S-H of international words, including a lot of food names. From B-O-U-I-L-L-A-B-A-I-S-S-E to P-F-E-F-F-E-R-N-U-S-S-E, F-A-T-A-Y-E-R to A-V-G-O-L-E-M-O-N-O: if you favor the food, you might best the bee.
