Is there a web site indexing cooking competitions, or an effective aggregator?

Question

Most sites that list cooking competitions are unfortunately holed up in one groups' pages and not easily searched.

I am looking for a site that indexes cooking competitions across various formats (i.e. chili, bbq, chowder, whatever), can provide event information, filter geographically and by event type.

A great site would index the events themselves as its sole function, but might also provide guidance/community elements.

What sites are currently out there that fit this bill?

Answer

The site that has the best information I've found in regards to competitive cooking is Contest Cook. They don't quite meet all your criteria in terms of searchability, but they do some levels of sorting and provide a wealth of information on the contests they list (which are quite numerous).

Is there a website on how to store specific foods?

Question

I ask if there are websites which explain how to store/preserve (in the fridge, freezer, out) all kind of foodstuff. Examples: eggs, milk, meat, specific fruits, specific vegetables, etc.
This book provides such descriptions.

Answer

The resource we generally use here on Seasoned Advice is stilltasty.com.

Feel free to edit this answer to include other resources.
