Food52:

Patience pays off here -- take your time caramelizing the onions. First, the onions will give off a lakeful of liquid. Let it boil off slowly, and by the time the onions begin to caramelize -- it took ours at least an hour -- they'll be as soft as pudding and deeply concentrated in flavor. Their sweetness infuses the entire dip, and while the rest of the ingredients are the classic onion dip foundation -- sour cream, cream cheese, and chives -- this one will be better than any you've had before. - A&M

Folks-Cut the tips from your wings EVERY time. Unless you like the taste of incinerated chicken in your oil.

No wonder the United States is the FATTEST industrialized country in the world!

Yes, because the one day a year that people make these recipes (note the article's title) is what ruins it for everyone.

These do look good, but some of them could be clean-finger friendlier. How about some Buffalo Shrimp, where the sauce is under the tempura-textured crispy coating? http://ozarkhomesteader.wordpress.com/2011/02/05/buffalo-shrimp-spicy-crunchy-and-good-for-snacking-or-salad/

They call this comfort food which is a hoax on our bodies; these foods can cause the leeching of nutrients from the digestive track, leading to other maladies.

Ugh! The asparagus bacon finger food actually looks like horror movie severed fingers.

Anything wrapped in bacon works for my troops.

Caramelized onion dip... thank you for the recipe right in time for book club. It's very different from regular onion dip - very mild and sweet. And very most excellent with pita chips and veggies.

Yum.
