Chef’s are using Twitter as a way of talking, or rather criticizing and responding, to one another. Twitter is allowing them to voice their thoughts and concerns, and also respond to one another in a timely manner. This article from the NYTimes reports that head chefs from around New York City are using Twitter as a method of marketing themselves, their restaurants, and slightly less common…talking smack?
A little immature, in my opinion, as their tweets are about running one another over with their bikes, firing each other, and criticisms on how authentic one another’s recipes truly are. The well-known food blog Eater picked up the story as well.
These guys need to grow up. But, that being said, I think it’s pretty cool that they can use Twitter to defend themselves and market themselves in a more positive light before their names are smeared in a bad food review somewhere.
In other news, I just ordered myself a copy of The China Study and can’t wait to get it! Has anyone else read this/how did you like it?
I heard it’s an essential read for deepening your understanding of longevity and health. I’ll let you all know how it is!
