    What’s in Prince’s Fridge?
    – Dunk-a-roos, about 5 pounds’ worth

    You may remember these from the early ’90s — packs of kangaroo-shaped cookies with chocolate or vanilla frosting used as a dipping sauce. The fridge had at least 10 different packages of the things, including out-of-print vintage varieties (double fudge cookies with strawberry frosting, for example).

    About the Dunk-a-roos, he wrote:

    “Don’t know what 2 say about Dunk-a-roos. They’re just good! Sometimes you want a food that is comfortable and takes you back. For me, it’s those crazy little kangaroo crackers.”

    This should be a show. Like Cribz, only better.

    It has since been pointed out this was an April Fool's Joke ... check out the date.

    Still it is amusing to think about.

    Some nosy people check out the medicine cabinets of friends they're visiting. This seems an invasion of privacy. I, however, and no less nosy than most, check out the refrigerators in homes I'm visiting. You can tell a lot about a person by the contents of their refrigerators.

    Photos of people's refrigerators could make an interesting photo essay. What's in Ricky Bayless' home refrigerator? Jason Hammel's? Carrie Nahabedian's?

    Just being nosy over here, boss.

    What is inside David Hammonds' refrigerator?

    Mine is loaded with condiments.

    According to those who share it with me, mine is filled with "food that's not food."

    There's a nice set of fridge photos here. What's interesting is that the photographer revisited the fridges at different points in the subjects' lives.

    Looking at them I was surprised at how upset I got every time I saw tomatoes in a fridge.

    Yep, condiments do take up a lot of real estate. I am trying to reduce the herd.
