Look, we all know that hot dogs and bologna and the like are bad for you. Kids eat it and then get cancer later in life. We get that. Is it really necessary, though, to make PSAs like this one (from the Cancer Project) this horrific? It's not like anybody who sees it can take it upon themselves to change the school lunch program. Sometimes we don't know which is worse: the problems or the exploitative efforts of advertising agencies to eradicate them.

Michael Psilakis is the most famous Greek chef in America, but you won't find a lot in common, at least superficially, between the high-concept food he serves at Anthos and what you're likely to get in your average Astoria seafood joint. That doesn't mean that the chef, who has deep roots in the Greek community, doesn't go to Astoria to get Greek food. On a recent afternoon, we went with him. Watch the video for a pastry primer and to learn the difference between green and black olives.

Guttenberg's Steak House! [Funny or Die]

The New York by New York Highbrow Barbecue this past Sunday brought out a big crowd, and, in C.J. Jacobson, the biggest alumni ever of Top Chef, at least physically. C.J. created a pulled-pork taco, a watermelon salad, and some grilled corn to feed the crowd, and then helped to judge a grilling contest with a $1,000 prize. If you couldn’t make it, just check out the video. It’s the next-best thing to being there.

Van Leeuwen Artisan Ice Cream, Greene St. at Prince St., 1 p.m.–8 p.m.; University Pl. at 11th St., 8 p.m.–11 p.m.; Broadway at 75th St., 1:30 p.m.–11 p.m..
