You Think You're Artisanal?

Two thumbs up, way up!

Very clever!

Really funny, and loved that you shot at Bobolink Dairy, my favorite dairy farm!!

So fun! Super impressive....

Best. April. Fools. Ever.

Wow, this is really impressive! You definitely get the Palme d'Or for the best April's fool joke!

*crying laughing, especially at Merrill and the cell phone*

This was awesome! thanks ladies! Keep up the good work!

Hilarious! Thank you for the best April Fool's treat ever.

You got me. I was very disappointed. That even looked like a bull not a cow...

Oh wow, you guys are the best! Still smiling.

Great job, although it would have probably been easier to milk a milk cow rather than a beef cow! :-{} Funny!

You "got me"!! Nice April fool's!

Great job! This really made me laugh!

I love this! Well done!

Funny video, ladies. Reminded me of milking with my grandfather, who fed the cows, then hobbled their back legs while he milked both to prevent getting himself kicked and preventing the cow from kicking over the milk bucket. That cow had a prodigious pair of horns, and I'm glad she didn't hook you, City Girl!

TWO THUMBS UP!!! <3

Clara's photo reminded me of the Little Rascals...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfrM9Yh5VnM

LOL...Thank you for the laugh. The best :)

Since I write about food and history... I found your April 1 look a perfect fit! Very well done and a hoot to watch.

Great gag! Nice work by everyone in the film, especially the stunt doubles!

do your know the book "Pig" from dutch artist Christien Meindertsma?
it's great. A book on everything a pig is used for

LOL! Great job, ladies! I've got to tell you - some of those article titles are just plain *scary*! :D

Love! It!!

You both look adorable and comedy can certainly be another successful career for you!!!

I have squirrel recipes --mmm good

Splendid! Brilliant minds are thinking alike. Google Maps also went retro this morning, reaching back a little further: https://maps.google.com/maps?ll=52.270003,-7.11004&spn=0.035663,0.090895&t=8&z=14= ;o)

thanks so much.. as someone who lived through the '60's and macrame and granola.. what's been going on lately with artisanal food etc. is just a little too precious for me.. and I DO support small farmers.. thanks again.. I love this blog..

Great FUn!!

That was great! Thanks for making me laugh this morning.

Uhh, was that a steer you were trying to milk?
Hilarious.

I love thee!

Nice work! Great headlines!!!

Finally, April Fool's Day is something to look forward to again. This year you didn't catch me by surprise (as in, What, What?) -- you just started the day off delightfully!

Mom called me first thing this AM and said, "Did you see Food 1852?" which I heard as "Did you see Food A-Team 52?" and replied, "What?! They were on one of those cooking shows that pit teams against each other?" To which Mom said, "They were on tv and I missed it??" and it continued to go downhill from there! We finally began to communicate in the same language and Mom told me to check out the site. TOO FUNNY! I love, love, love the video, although I was a bit stressed Amanda was going to get kicked in the face by Liberty. The chicken scene is my favorite, I think. Great job, ladies, et.al.

I like this homepage better. Where's my goddamn pemmican recipe?

holy smokes. i sure needed a laugh today! that was awesome.

This was amazing :) though I must admit, pork cake sounds insanely desirable.

Please, you've just thrown me back to the 60's and The Whole Earth Catalog.

Haha! That was funny! Now I know why you guys wanted to buy/rent an antique butter churner! :)

What a Hoot. Darn near busted my britches laughing. One question - was Merrill looking for a chicken catching app on her smartphone? Try link lauraingallswilder.com! Happy April Fools Day!

Isn't that the cutest? When I woke up this morning I was tired and didn't want to get out of bed to go to work and sit behind a computer! Ha! Your video sure made me think! Happy Spring!

Laughed 'til I cried. Happy April Fool's, ladies and thanks for this morning's hilarious lift-off!

I didn't think you could improve on the Halloween spoof, but you have outdone yourselves again!!! You girls are too much candy for a nickel.

Hilarious!!

what a cute video! Thanks for starting April out right.

love love this Ladies, super fun!

You two can't churn butter worth a durn, but you sure made my mornin'! Happy April!

So funny. Nice work :)

looking for a good opossum recipe. saw one in the creek behind ma house last night. pretty sure i can bag it and get it to the smoker.

Outstanding!

Did this really happen? "Sarah Palin Chokes on Chimichanga". I thought I saw that on the crawl on MSNBC this morning. Apparently Ms. Palin was lunching with Gov. Jan Brewer and Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arapaio and they were sharing chimichangas, which happens to be Arizona's Official State Food. Suddenly Palin begins to choke on her fried burrito. Brewer swiftly administers the Heimlich while Arapaio performs mouth to mouth. The offending morsel flies out. Arapaio pulls out his open carry and gun and goes back to the kitchen and shoots the cook. Frontier justice I guess.

Hilarious. Really made my April Fool's morning. Loved the Donner party ref. And Pemmican... my daughter had a class assignment in 3rd grade and had to try to replicate it. It seems to me that it involved peanut butter and bird seed, but I could be wrong. Thanks for the laugh!

Love it when I laugh with in minutes of rolling out of bed...paves the way for what I know will be a great day!! Thanks to Food52's ingenuity and playfulness to getting my day started on the right foot! The video was hysterical! And I love everything vintage!!

Very funny, as always from Food52 on April Fool's Day!

Hangdangit that is a beautiful video. My favourite is when it's April Fool's on Food 52!

Love the "new" home page -- laugh out loud funny and so creative! And what a hilarious video too. My favorite scene is of A&M trying to catch a chicken for dinner before deciding that they will have to settle for cabbage soup instead. Happy April Fool's Day, Food52! :)

ha! happy april fools food52!

loved the video! Happy All fools day A & M!
