No wai! We’re gonna be on the radio!

Dear Perth Readers,
Apparently some folks over at ABC Perth like our blog (and I’m a bit of a fan of the ABC myself. Go public broadcasting!)! So, they’ve invited me to be a guest their afternoon show to talk about some super serious important business: tuna cupcakes and other weird and crazy food. So tune in to 720AM around 2:40 this afternoon.
Extra bonus, it’s a call in show (this should be fun!)
Love,
Kate
Extreme Food Dating: Outback Jack’s
My five odd years of vegetarianism, which promptly ended when I moved from cosmopolitan central Canada to suburban western Australia, has unfortunately left me rather meat obsessed. Especially steak, which I never liked before. My food eroticist friend Matt told me that there was this steak place in Fremantle called Outback Jack’s where if you ate a kilo of steak ass, I mean rump, they’d give it to you for half price, and an XXXL tshirt to prove it. This seemed like a stupid deal - if you’re going to do something that’s gonna make you constipated for days and sweat meat you should probably be able to do it for free. But then I realised this was the best date idea ever. Obviously. What could be hotter than stuffing meat into your face until you feel like barfing? Plus, the jingle that autoplays when you go to their website (always a good sign) had very Australian men telling me that their steak would melt in my mouth. Take a listen, it’s pretty convincing.
My Date, who somehow remained unfazed when I told him that the evening’s activity was competitive eating, came to pick me up to drive down to Fremantle. Read more
