When the conservative Economist reports that Facebook is hiring a Google chef away, it’s kind of del.icio.us. The more important question (aside from which company has the best food) is this: Do certain dishes make you smarter?

It’s not about searching for the right ingredients, killer quiche or carefully fermented kombucha tea. It’s got to be about, well, eating like an Internet brainiac. The title isn’t shy. Food 2.0: Secrets from the Chef Who Fed Google.

Silicon Valley secrets. Web. Search geniuses. Millionaires, too!

Perfect. I’m hungry for those recipes.
