It is the start of another week yet again and we here at TexasRealFood have bunched up some of the most random reading materials for your enjoyment. Be it your break time or just trying to tire out your brain before you catch some Zzzs, here's some reading material that is sure to add a pinch of chaos to your day.
Without further ado, here are some spaced-out cows, pizza, sushi, and a lot more. Read on!
Two words: Pizza Sushi
I love pizza in all its shapes or forms. Be it deep-dish, thin-crust, or the quintessential New York 2-dollar slice, as long as it's a pizza I’m in. The City of Pistoia in Tuscany, Italy has some exciting fusion ideas for the age-old pie by integrating its set of flavors and packaging it into sushi.
Yes, you read that right. Sushi. Curious? Read more here.
Stoner Cows and Space Milk
Ever hear about space brownies? Well, for the uninformed these are chocolate confections laced with marijuana’s psychoactive ingredient called THC or delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol if you want to be more Sciency about it. Now, imagine this but with milk. How? They feed milk-producing cows hemp-based feed. This makes them higher than college sophomores on spring break.
Some groups are calling a stop to this because studies have shown that the milk these stoner heifers produce is laced with THC. Curious? Read up on more stoner cows here.
Bacon is Here. Bacon is Eternal.
Remember that one Youtube channel that cooked up some pretty crazy gigantic dishes that used a whole pig farm’s worth of bacon? This sparked a huge bacon trend in the 2010s and some people are still probably trying to recover from it [I swear I signed up for the gym last week]. Well, despite what you may think, the trend never died down and will live forever through a 24/7 Bacon mecca of a restaurant called Bacon Nation in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Bacon is here to stay. Bacon is eternal. Read up more here.
Nothing Like Capitalism Using Monkey Labor
Running a sweatshop is already a pretty bad way to go about your business but imagine running a sweatshop full of monkeys. Well, that’s the case with HelloFresh because they were accused of using monkeys to help them produce coconut milk.
Now, if that doesn’t sound like monkey business to me, I don’t know anymore. Read more here.
Hotdog Vendor Turf War
Remember the cola wars of the 90s? Well, they’re doing it with hotdog vendors in San Diego and Los Angeles. Tensions flared which eventually led to a brawl between hotdog vendors from San Diego and Los Angeles over the right to sell hotdogs in Petco Park.
Startled onlookers were reported on the scene of the brawl where they nervously munched down on their hotdogs amidst all the violence. Read more here.
Are Those Turkey Socks?
Growing up in the 90s, I’ve grown accustomed to seeing imagery on cable TV of animated roasted turkeys sporting those upside-down chef hats at the tips of their juicy legs. At first, I called them turkey socks and stuck to them for decades until about some time ago when I found out what they’re used for.
Curious? I know I was. Read more here.
Starbucks Customer Orders 38 Drinks, Other Customers In-Line Get Caffeine Withdrawal
Imagine you're in a great hurry waiting to get your caffeine dose at Starbucks and the person after you starts ordering 38 individual drinks. If that were to be me, there would be visual confusion in my eyes then to be followed by rage because of the caffeine withdrawal that I might just experience while waiting in line.
This just happened to a woman who posted a video on TikTok detailing her harrowing experience of waiting for 25 minutes for her drink. I’d be annoyed too but, then again, a Red Bull sounds nice. Read more here.
