Dr. Oz is reeeeeeealllllyyyy excited about his pasta ... judging by the southern bulge he appeared to be sporting during a photo shoot for "Good Housekeeping" ... OR IS IT???
The Internet has been buzzing ever since this photo surfaced in the April edition of GH ... which appears to show the doc enjoying magnum-sized bites of pasta ... while pitching a khaki tent.
Some people think Oz's anatomy is to blame ... others believe it's simply an optical illusion created by a crease in his pants.
We called Oz's people to get the long and short of the photo mystery -- but so far, their lips are sealed.

Competitive eating monster
Takeru Kobayashi downed a gut-busting 42 CUPS of coffee for his latest food stunt -- but his rep tells TMZ, the chowdown champ handled the massive caffeine jolt like a champ ... in fact, he didn't even have to poop.
Kobayashi's rep tells TMZ, Kobayashi was a tad jittery afterwards -- but overall, he was totally fine.
The rep says Kobayashi didn't eat anything before the stunt -- shot a couple weeks ago as a promotional video for Eight O'Clock Coffee -- and "That's why he didn't get the sh*ts."
The rep adds, "Actually, the only thing after the insane amount of coffee was that he kept having to go pee over and over again ... so many times."
FYI -- a lethal dose of caffeine would require between 80-100 cups of coffee.

Barack Obama has just become the first sitting President in American history to have a menu item named after him at Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles -- talk about a historic week!!
The legendary chicken joint officially renamed a menu item after Obama after the Commander-In-Chief chowed down on the famous 3-wing "Country Boy" special
back in October.
At the time, the owners claimed they would NOT rename the item after Obama ... in fairness to Reagan and Nixon, who were also regulars ... but don't have any items named after them.
Guess the Roscoe's people had a change of heart ... 'cause the Country Boy is OUT and "Obama's Special" is in ... for $8.90.
Yes they did.

George Clooney, throwing a mega-fundraiser for someone as famous as the leader of the free world, you want a caterer as famous as
Wolfgang Puck.
TMZ has learned ... the Spago impresario has been hired to feed the 150 people who are each shelling out $40,000 to rub elbows with Obama at George Clooney's house this Thursday.

We're told there will be a special menu -- not the standard Wolfgang catering -- and, as one source put it, "The food is going to be a lot better than the Oscars" -- Wolfgang caters the Governor's Ball that follows the academy awards.

You may not have realized it when you were in the theaters this weekend, but "
The Avengers" is not a movie ... it's a guerrilla marketing campaign for the shawarma industry!!! We'll explain ...
At the end of the "film," a scene within the credits shows the movie's stars eating lunch at an undisclosed location (not a secret lair or anything, they just didn't say). The meal of choice was shawarma ... a callback to something
Robert Downey Jr.'s character had said earlier in the movie.

TMZ spoke with several different fine eating establishments all across Los Angeles ... and they all say sales of shawarma went through the roof this weekend.
At Ro Ro's Chicken -- a famed Lebanese joint in Hollywood -- the manager says shawarma sales jumped 80% in the days after the movie opened. We're told the same thing happened a few years back when a baba ghanouj joke was featured in "You Don't Mess with the Zohan."
And that's the last time we'll mention "You Don't Mess with the Zohan" ever again.

"
Biggest Loser" contestant
Joe Messina's recent nuptials violated the one cardinal rule of weddings everywhere -- GET EVERYONE WASTED -- because booze was NOT allowed at the party.
TMZ broke the story ... the former Season 13 contestant
tied the knot recently in Michigan -- and 12 other current and former contestants attended -- but the wedding party lacked a key ingredient .... alcohol.
Sources tell us ... the groom and his "Loser" guests are serious as a heart attack when it comes to their new healthy lifestyle -- so they axed all forms of alcohol from the menu (alcoholic drinks contain a lot of calories). Thankfully, we're told the crowd -- which was pretty religious -- didn't drink much anyway.
But Joe's reign of terror didn't end there -- we're told he also subbed a real wedding cake for low-fat pumpkin cake pops ... and served only food from the "Biggest Loser Cookbook" ... such as:
-- Grilled Chicken with Mango, Thai Quinoa Salad
-- Tossed Salad
-- Fresh Fruit Salad
-- Asian Chopped Salad
-- Salad Salad

And just when you thought it couldn't get any worse ... we're told the guests actually WORKED OUT before the ceremony.
No one was injured.

He's one the most elite athletes in the world ... his body is a friggin' temple ... and that's why we're kinda shocked by what
Robert Griffin III had for breakfast AND lunch yesterday ... hours before the draft.
We ran into RG3 on the streets of NYC, just a short time before he was drafted 2nd overall by the
Washington Redskins ... and after he told us about his deliciously unhealthy breakfast ... dude carried a pizza box back to his hotel room.
And THAT is how you win over the
Hogettes ... (also, winning doesn't hurt).
8:02 AM PST -- Our sources at Red Stone Pizza in Manhattan tells us they "believe" RG3 ordered a pepperoni pizza ... PEPPERONI!!!

Pink Taco founder (and famed restaurateur)
Harry Morton claims he's the victim of a massive money-laundering scheme that defrauded him out of $1.3 million ... and Wells Fargo Bank is to blame -- this according to a new lawsuit.
Morton filed the docs in L.A. County Superior Court, claiming he hired a consultant named
Carlos Nieto to handle the day-to-day accounting for his new Pink Taco location in West Hollywood -- and the guy royally screwed up, siphoning over half a million dollars of Morton's money into sham bank accounts.
But Morton isn't just blaming Nieto -- he's suing Wells Fargo too, claiming they weren't paying enough attention to the guy to notice his nefarious activities.
According to the lawsuit, Nieto stole a grand total of $674,000 -- which forced Morton to shut down construction on his new restaurant for 5 months.
As a result of the delay, Morton claims he's had to pay 5 extra months of extremely expensive bills -- rent, bank loan interest, insurance, contractors' fees ... etc.
Morton's suing for at least $1.3 million. Fun fact: he used to date Lindsay Lohan and his father founded the Hard Rock Casino.

"
MasterChef"
Graham Elliot is FED UP with the lawsuit recently filed against him and insists everything he did in his Chicago restaurant was legally within his rights ... this according to new docs.
If you recall ... the culinary God
is being sued by former Graham Elliot Restaurant employee Gregory Curtis, who alleges that Elliot was skimming tips from waiters and giving it to the kitchen staff ... which Curtis claims would be a violation of federal law.
But in a response filed earlier this month, Elliot claims the suit is BS. While he does admit he DID take tip money and pool it for other staff members -- bartenders, bussers, and food runners -- he is adamant ... under federal labor laws, it was totally legit.
Elliot now wants the judge to throw out the suit completely and force Curtis to cover his legal fees as well.
If only there was a tip pool for that.
