Graeter’s Mystery Flavor Revealed

Nick Steele Leave a comment

After being on a diet for 6 weeks I was in desperate need of some delicious ice cream. Then I passed a place named Graeter’s. I had heard a few people mention it before and was curious to see if they could live up to my ice cream standards. So i strolled in and got the BEST banana split of my life! 3 flavors of ice cream and tons of toppings, but the one that stole the show was the Strawberry ice cream with chocolate chips in it. (my stomach is growling at the thought of it) Needless to say, they are my new ice cream supplier.
I brought this up because they have revealed the name of their secret flavor this morning. If you have been there lately you may have gotten to taste it. If you haven’t then I think just the name of it will make you stop on the way home and get some. The Mystery Flavor is officailly “Cake Batter Fudge Brownie” and it’s made with Cake Batter flavored ice cream mixed with chunks of hand-crafted brownies. (I know right!) it will be available through June and you will probably run into me there everyday until they kick me out!

Ohio Hates Sex

Ok, maybe not HATE but Ohioans sure don’t value it that much. Chemistry.com surveyed 10 MILLION users and one of the questions they asked was “How much do you value sex?” Then they took that data and matched it up to the cities they lived in and made a list of the top 10 cities who value sex the most and the least. 8 of the top ten who value it most are in California and 3 of the top ten who value it the least are in Ohio. Including Dayton (where I live).  See the lists after the jump!

Chocolate Makes You Skinny!

You read that title correctly. Finally scientist are studying things that I actually care about, Chocolate! Someone better send a notice to the Walgreens on my route home because I’m buying all of their Easter candy. Ok, maybe not ALL the candy…just the chocolate Snicker eggs. So good. Anyway back to the story, scientists at the University Of California, San Diego have proven that eating chocolate actually makes you skinny. Im sure that doens’t mean you should eat a pound of it a day, but we can hope right?

They tested over 1000 healthy men and women who worked out at least 3.6 times a week and ate a balanced nutritional diet. Some of them were given a reasonable amount of chocolate to comsume 5 times a week and some were not. Well, they found the ones that ate the chocolate had a smaller body mass index than those who ate it less often. This worked for a couple of reasons, check them out after the jump!

Harry Potter Goes Digital

Good news for the Harry Potter fans out there. If you have a kindle and have been dying to get ahold of the entire Harry Potter series digitally, your wish has finally come true. They were supposed to be released back in October but due to some complications with the website they are on, they pushed them back until now. The only place you can currently get them is at JK Rowling’s Pottermore.com website.

Your Resume Sucks.

Most likely that’s a true statement, but you’re probably asking yourself why? Well it could be a very good resume, showing all of your work experience and every little thing you have done that makes you the perfect person for that job you applied for yesterday. The sad news is, according a new study, the guy (or girl) you gave it too probably only spent about 6 seconds looking at it. Kind of makes all those hours of obsessing if you should put your high school math award as a qualification pretty worthless huh?

How about putting that awesome picture you love from 10 years ago on your Linkedin profile? That’s a no-no as well. A job-matching company named TheLadder studied employers eye movements when looking at resumes and found 3 very interesting facts. Check them out after the jump….

Kickin’ Like Jackie Chan

Do the young whipper-snappers still say that? Anyway, I dumped a girl in High School because she had bad breath ONCE. It was so bad that I just couldn’t kiss her anymore without thinking about it. All these years later I have always felt guilty about it, until today. Apparently I’m not the only person in the world who would dump someone just because of their bad breath. According to a survey by Dentyne (they would know) on bad breath, 86% of people say bad breath is a deal breaker on the first date. Another 58% of people have dumped someone because of it. Woo hoo! Im in the majority, and all this time I felt like a shallow douche.
