Editor of Chow Magazine online, Jane Goldman, give us an end of the year update:  Highs and Lows of 2006.  She calls 2006 the Year of the Pig, since so many chefs were using pig parts in recipes.  2006 was also a major year for food contamination.  She talks about the television chef craze (Rachel Ray-IN, Mario Battali-OUT, at least in the TV world), and the "self-heating" latte (Wolfgang Puck's invention) which ended up exploding.
