The one weekly section I always look forward to in the newspapers I read is the Wednesday Food/Dining section. I'd love to know what person or newspaper started this practice so that all major papers (at least for the cities I've lived in) always publish these articles and recipes on Wednesday. How did it get started that they're always on Wednesday? Was it one newspaper? Or does it go back further to an older tradition having to do with cooking or markets? tag:ask.metafilter.com,2007:site.71432 Wed, 12 Sep 2007 23:21:13 -0800 cooking newspapers wednesdayfoodsection gov_moonbeam
