Ed's favorite food is CHEESE! Only one lucky Ed-lover got it right: Gina Hamadey. She'll win "The Renegade Writer: A  Totally Unconventional Guide to Freelance Writing Success" by Linda Formichelli and Diana Burrell. Runners-up were kentucky hot browns (nice try, Cara!), marshmallow bunnies and pork and beans! And, yes, Michael, magarita is his favorite liquid food.

So he can't order the destruction of photographs and images documenting the furry monster's nuptials, alien kidnappings and several generations of celebrities that graced the pages of supermarket tabloids such as the Weekly World News, Star and National Enquirer.
