    Hot Knives

    Rather than cook with meat, the bloggers known as Hot Knives use their sharp knives to spread the hearty joys of vegetarianism. Alex Brown and Evan George are former line cooks who met while working in their college mess hall. Evan challenged Alex to become a vegetarian for a week and Alex never looked back. You can videocast them as well.
