This is the Columbus Distpatch's review of culinary century.
Interesting summaries and timelines by decade.

Great chronological portal.

Noted without comment.

Index to good eats barely off the beaten path
The
Food Pyramid
The
Food Guide Pyramid
http://www.pueblo.gsa.gov/cic_text/food/food-pyramid/main.htm
Best introduction to the food pyramid I've found. From the
Consumer
Information Center (think Pueblo, CO) it's the online
version of their free catalog.
The
Vegetarian Food Pyramid
http://www.vegsource.com/nutrition/pyramid.htm
VegSource.org's version of the pyramid. See also "What
People are (Unfortunately) Really Eating."
Fats/Sugars
Marshmallows!
I have never met a marshmallow I didn't like.
Peeps
http://www.marshmallowpeeps.com/
I have a fondness for these little birdies unparalleled by
any other foodstuff in my life. If you are a peeps fan, or
know one, check out the Peeps
Fan Club. I've been delighted by my premium membership,
a total bargain at $13.95. Fantastic surprise gift for a Peeps
lover in your life.
Marshmallow Fluff
http://www.marshmallowfluff.com/
My Favorite FAQ from site: "How is Fluff easily removed
from materials?" "If
water will not damage the soiled material, warm water will
dissolve any Fluff for removal."
Circus
Peanuts
http://www.spanglercandy.com/spangler/Products/circuspeanuts.htm
Orange color, peanut shape, banana flavor.
Candy
Spangler
Candy's Dum Dum Order page
http://208.46.38.129/order/dumdumorder.htm
If you are fond of a particular Dum Dum flavor, RUN
don't walk to this site where you can get a 120 count box
of a single flavor! And the 30 pound carton is pretty remarkable
too.
Junk
Food Mecca
http://www.whpress.com/mecca/
The portal for junk food.
Name
that Candy Bar
http://www.sci.mus.mn.us/sln/tf/c/crosssection/namethatbar.html
I love quizzes, and this is the sweetest.
Queasy
Pops
http://www.threelollies.com/
Brilliant. Lollies to help hamper nausea. I gotta try these
for my carsickness...
Dairy
Dairy
Queen
http://www.dairyqueen.com/
Okay, Okay, more dessert than dairy. Being a Minnesota native
I pine for DQ, but unfortunately, it's tough to get a Mr.
Misty in the Chicago city limits.
Grilled
Cheese Invitational
http://www.grilledcheeseinvitational.com/
Bread. Butter. Cheese. Victory!
Stonyfield
Yogurt
http://www.stonyfield.com/
Mixed with granola most mornings, Stonyfield's Organic Nonfat
Vanilla Yogurt is my favorite.
Meats
Nippon
Ham Creations
http://www.nipponham.co.jp/winny/kazari/index.html
What a versatile medium, the tiny processed meat sticks.
The
Octodog!
http://www.octodog.net/index.htm
I have absolutely no use for this, eating maybe a hot dog
or two a year (at Chicago dog digs). Still, I love that the
Octodog exists in the world.
Vegetables
Fruits
FizzyFruit
http://www.fizzyfruit.com
Wowsa. I haven't tasted it, it kind of scares me, but I am
definitely fascinated.
The
Maraschino Cherry
http://hotwired.wired.com/cocktail/links/cherries.html
I love me some maraschino cherries, but I am terrified on
how they are made. Thankfully, my consumption is low.
Breads
Bob's
Red Mill
http://www.bobsredmill.net/
This tiny mill makes my favorite granola to eat with my favorite
aforementioned yogurt.
Grilled
Cheese Invitational
http://www.grilledcheeseinvitational.com/
Bread. Butter. Cheese. Victory!
Holotypic
Occlupanid Research Group
http://www.horg.com/horg/intro.html
Taxonomic Data of the Breadties of the World. One word: BRILLIANT.
