Foodies have the James Beard Awards. But what’s out there for Cheetos lovers like me?
The Munchies
The self-proclaimed ‘People’s Choice Food Awards,’ The Munchies recognize the “most amazing tastes, faces and places in the food world.”
Thirteen culinary experts have selected 100 nominees in 20 categories. I mean, when comedian Michael Ian Black , co-host of the “Mike & Tom Eat Snacks” podcast, is on the selection committee —
You know it’s legit. And fun.
Of course, you would expect New York City to be well-represented in any food competition. But I was excited to see some local spots in the running, including our neighborhood coffee shop Joe in the “Coolest Coffee Shop” category.
So, cast your vote today! The contest closes April 30th. Remember, this one matters most because…
It’s the people’s choice.

Gratitude
I watch a lot of awards shows, and often the celebrities are so jaded, it’s uncomfortable to watch them win. They come across arrogant or bored or even embarrassed to be there.
So it’s fun to watch someone win their first award — after decades in the business — and be joyful and sincere and probably win over an entire new demographic of fans in the process.
Good for you, Craig. I’ve always voted for you.
