This just came through my inbox. Pretty funny:

GRAND CENTRAL OYSTER BAR RE-NAMES NEW ENGLAND CLAM CHOWDER “GIANT” CLAM CHOWDER IN HONOR OF SUPER BOWL CHAMPS

New York, February 5—Since the Giants “ate up New England’s undefeated season to win the Super Bowl,” says Grand Central Oyster Bar GM Mike Garvey, the famed New York seafood restaurant has re-named its New England Clam Chowder as “Giants Clam Chowder” all of this week in a toast to Big Blue.

The creamy chowder is priced at $5.75 a bowl. “The Giants creamed the Patriots,” added Garvey, “it is an appropriated tribute.” Manhattan Clam Chowder remains on the menu priced at $4.95.
