We're back!  Enthusiasts of lunch documentation can rejoice, as beginning today and lasting as long as we feel like it, THE GLOBAL PHENOMENON brings you the best (and worst) of your very own lunch documentation in its award-winning feature, Document Your Lunch. Join us once again on a lunchtime culinary journey across the country and the planet, as the pictures of the very foods you choose to spend your hard earned money on during the one hour of freedom you have at your jobs, are brought to life and shown to the world.  As a new wrinkle this season, the provider of the best lunch documentation I receive will win a lunch with me courtesy of the blog's vast coffers of gold,  where we will toast one another and document our lunches before high-fiving and eating them.

What:  In the spirit of the compromise between the White House and Congress that ended the debt ceiling battle, check out 'The Peacemaker' at Mahony's Po-Boy Shop in New Orleans, Louisiana.  Fried oysters, bacon, and cheddar cheese dressed with lettuce, tomatoes, mayo and hot sauce.

How much?:  $10.95

WHAT DID YOU HAVE FOR LUNCH TODAY? 

You can Document Your Lunch by taking a pic of your lunch and sending the documentation via tweet to @casualhoya or via email to casualhoya@gmail.com.    

Tell us what it is, where you got it, and how much you paid for it, and in addition to a chance to win a casual lunch with me, your lunch will be shown to the masses and we'll make you famous and cool.

This is the greatest daily feature in the history of the world wide web.

Note: Starting tomorrow, DYL moves over to the right side as a Fanpost so as not to clutter the front page with pictures of lunch foods, which may or may not make you happy.  Documentation is all that matters.
