Almost everyone has their own idea about the best way to cook a steak. Grilling, searing in a cast iron pan, sous vide, reverse sear -- you have so many options. And that comes after the debate over what cut of steak is right for the job — filet, ribeye, New York strip, and sirloin to just name a few. Chef Michael Symon personally prefers a more affordable flank or skirt steak on the grill. Clearly, when it comes to how to cook pretty much anything, some opinions hold a lot more weight than others.

While fast food restaurants are often known by their style of food or the most popular items on the menu, it's the sides that often take them to the next level of praise. If you're a hamburger joint, you've got to have good fries. If you're a fried chicken spot, your mashed potato game needs to be excellent. The same goes for classic Asian eateries -- you can't be taken seriously if you don't have delicious fried rice. That's what is so mind-boggling about Panda Express.

And while a good restaurant isn't defined by its happy hour, having a nice one with several options certainly doesn't hurt.

Is there a better season for vegetables than summer? We don't think so. From early through late summer, it's the time of year for fresh tomatoes, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, summer squash, zucchini, eggplant, corn, and so much more. That corn, though.

Inc., not only is tea the second most popular beverage in the world, but it's also consumed by 160 million Americans every day. In 2024, Americans consumed 4 billion gallons of tea.
