Imagine if you will, you sit down next to your warm burning fire place, looking out into the distance through your frost touched window about to enjoy your warm cup of coco. As you sip this delicious chocolaty treat something begins to emerge from the depths of marshmallows. it’s….a….SEA CREATURE AHHHH!!!!!
No seriously, these are the most awesome cups I have ever seen!
Got a chance to talk with Jared Fogle from the Subway commercials about what he was doing in Dayton. He attended the Dayton Dragon’s 5K as well as went and talked to the summer camp kids at the YMCA about childhood obesity and some ways to stay in shape as they grow up. Also discussed some of his mistakes growing up and the challenge he still deals with everyday with his weight. He talks about starting The Jared Foundation as well as his book “Winning Through Losing” that gives some tips that he used while he was losing the weight that can be adapted for those of us who need to shed a few pounds. Check out the full interview after the jump!

Every once in a while the world is shaken up by a great invention. Recently is was the Doritos Locos Tacos and Taco Bell. Great minds came together to bring us a tasty new way to eat tacos. Well there may be ANOTHER way to eat a taco that is equally as brilliant! No one is selling these yet but I’m sure they will be here soon enough. A blogger named Nick (great name BTW) came up with a new taco shell to fix that age old problem of losing the goodness inside the taco to the floor or your clothing. It is simply called the TACONE and it combines the world of the waffle cone and the delicious contents of a taco. Since no one is selling these yet, if you would like to make your own (Hell yeah I do!) then you can follow this link to get the recipe! I see a bright future ahead of us in the world of mexican food in a waffle cone. http://dudefoods.com/tacone/
Growing up there was one thing I refused to do, and that was work with food. That includes fast food places and restaurants. I don’t want to know what happens back there EVER. I just want to enjoy my food and believe that ignorance is bliss. Luckily I got my wish and stayed as far away from them as possible. If you are like me and would just like to enjoy the food you eat from fast food places and not know too much, you may not want to read any more of this post.
A user on Reddit.com asked fast food workers if they could name any items on their menu that they would NOT order and why. It got a lot of responses and after the jump you can read the highlights! Hope your not eating right now…

When the 4th of July barbecue comes and goes we all get a little sad. The next holiday isn’t until September and no one wants to wait that long for an excuse to drink and eat good food. We really don’t need an excuse but it makes us feel better if we know that we aren’t just chubby lushes. Plus, this will allow your ladies to decorate with a theme in mind. See, everyone is happy. Here are some other holidays we can celebrate in the month of July!

Lets all agree that the only way you can lose weight is by burning off more calories than you take in on a daily basis. Or throwing up after every meal…I hear that works too. Although technically its same thing so let us all agree abuot the first thing I said and forget the second. Deal? Anyway, Dr. OZ’s website has a few dieting myths that may interest you if you are trying to be less people. Which I am always trying to do in one way or another. Lean Cuisine for lunch, Ben & Jerry’s Cherry Garcia for Dinner! So if you want a little extra help in the extra baggage section of your body click the jump! The ladies will REALLY like the last one…

It seems that the whole grilling world, or at least %50 of them, have some sort of special recipe for cooking the perfect piece of meat. I am totally one of them! I can cook you a mini hamburger that will knock the taste buds out of your mouth. Webber Grills conducted a survey and found that half of the people surveyed have either a special ingredient or marinade that sets them apart from the rest. What those people really should be saying is “I’m going to pretend like I took the time to experiment with 100’s of ingredients to find the perfect combination, when in reality I was broke and all I had in my fridge was Hamburger meat and peanut butter” (been there!)
No matter to me how you grill it as long as I get a taste! I can’t wait for Summer to start so I can go buy a new grill and start cooking up the greatness! I have a special ingredient by the way…
On occasion you can find me eating a sandwich, talking on the phone, blasting my music and looking at directions on my phone all at once! Suprisingly, I’m not DEAD! After reading this study I may have to adjust my driving tactics. Nah, I’ll just buy a bluetooth!
Eating and driving distracts you significantly more than being drunk or texting and driving. When you eat, your reaction time slows down up to…
I have always wanted to be THAT guy who doesn’t care about looking like a douche! For example, I would like to sit at a restaurant and place a stack of one dollar bills on the table and then let the waiter watch me take one off at a time everytime he messes up or makes me wait. What ever is left will be his tip! If only I could be that mean…I have however, not left a tip because of horrible service. It has to be REALLY bad for me to leave nothing but I think that good service should be rewarded and bad service should not. You live off your tips? Maybe try and pretend you like your job!
There is a point to this (who da thunk it?). Good news is that I’m not the only one among us that has left a bad tip or no tip before. A survey by CouponCabin found that Continue reading
People are always telling you how bad frozen dinners are for you (like you had a choice between that and a private chef to cook for you, but you’re poor and live alone and don’t want to put any effort into something that only YOU are going to eat) but the worst part is that you know they are right. It’s ok to have one every once in a while but not for every meal, but it is NEVER ok to have any of the 7 on this list. I give you, the worst of the worse frozen dinners. After the jump!
