The Filet-O-Fish is one of the most popular items on the Mickey D's menu that is super simple and also super satisfying. As a long time fan of the Filet-O-Fish (plus all the hacks that come with it) and a former MCDonald's cashier/honorary line worker, I've got inside knowledge on a lot that goes on behind the counter, including how the crispy filet gets that beautiful golden color.

Food recalls happen all the time, for various reasons. Unfortunately, the underlying problems are not always caught before they can cause lasting damage. One of the worst incidents the United States has ever experienced happened in 1985. It was a far-reaching event involving recalled cheeses that were linked to dozens of deaths. The company behind it was Jalisco Mexican Products, Inc., a small business in California that sold soft cheeses, such as queso fresco and cotija.

We know there's lots to love from Taco Bell's menu, but there's something oddly comforting about the refried beans in particular. Made using pink and pinto beans, they're warm, smooth, and just bland enough to go with everything — but in a good way. Those refried beans always feel a little creamier than what you get when you crack open a can at home. The good news is that you can rid yourself of this disappointment, and it's not by heading to the nearest drive-thru.

With NBA legend Michael Jordan reportedly set to join NBC Sports as a special contributor in the 2025-26 NBA season, he's ready to change the narrative around today's NBA and finally put an end to the "GOAT" discourse. There is no shortage of debates about the old-school style of basketball, typically referring to the 1980s and 1990s, versus the modern NBA.

Als Amerikaner, der seit über einem Jahrzehnt in Italien lebt, hat sich meine Sichtweise auf den Erfolg verändert. Creshonda Smith Ich zog vor elf Jahren nach Italien und fühlte mich anfangs unwohl mit dem langsameren Lebenstempo. Zuerst verstand ich nicht, wie die Leute stundenlang faulenzen und sich unterhalten konnten.

There's a reason Popeyes chicken hits differently and it's not just the delectable Cajun seasoning or the flaky biscuit riding shotgun (even if it's like glue which makes your tongue stick to the roof of your mouth sometimes). This spot has a special place in my heart that began in childhood, stayed throughout my teenage years, and carried me through many a late night in college. I like KFC, and Church's is okay, but there was nothing quite like Popeyes.

My first job was working at McDonald's when I was 16 years old. I was so happy to have a job in the first place. And at 16, I was elated it was McDonald's since I could get free apple pies and McFlurries to my heart's content during lunch breaks. My mom congratulated me on the job, but said, "I wish you would have gotten hired at Wendy's instead, so I could get free Frosties." I wondered to myself how they're both frozen treats, so why does it even matter?

If you've ever tried Vietnamese coffee, you probably haven't forgotten the experience. It's super strong, thick, and packs way more of a punch than your average morning brew. It reminds me somewhat of Italian coffee in terms of how bitter it is. And though it's not my cup of tea, I can still appreciate the culture and uniqueness of the coffee — this isn't just a strong cup of joe for the sake of it (I'm a fan of Vietnamese iced coffee, though).
