Our food columnist can beat up your food columnist.

The moment the Steelers clinched its Super Bowl berth last Sunday, I ripped off an e-mail to my Seattle colleague, Hsiao-Ching Chou, food editor of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

Feeling full of beans, I gushed, "I'm betting on the Steelers big time. Want to bet? If your rain-soaked Seahawks should win, I'll send you five pounds of Polish kielbasi and a homemade walnut roll. If the Steelers win, what are you good for?"

She came back with, "I'm good for a five-pound bag of the best dang Penn Cove mussels you'll ever have."

Mussels? You're kidding. "That's sissy food," I sassed. She amended her bet to five pounds of Copper River King Salmon. (Obviously, there are no traditional Seattle football foods.)
