Not Even Remotely About Recipes

Okay, so my job rarely has anything to do with cooking or recipes. And most days, it has nothing at all to do with food. But today I came across this quote in a case I read for a project I'm working on. It's...sort of about food? Sometimes federal judges (and their clerks) do have a sense of humor.

Here's the quote:
"We start with some threshold questions about the scope of Volovsek's suit. Unfortunately we have to spend considerable time addressing this issue because the parties appear to have simply collected the sum total of all the unpleasant events in Volovsek's work history since 1991, dumped them into the legal mixing bowl of this lawsuit, set the Title VII-blender to puree and poured the resulting blob on the court."
Volovsek v. Wisconsin Dept. of Agr., Trade and Consumer Protection, 344 F.3d 680 (7th Cir. 2003)
