I’ve mentioned before about my love of Italian food. While our family eats a lot of different ethnic dishes, Italian was one of the first I experimented with. This homemade Italian seasoning mix is the perfect way to season everything from pasta sauces to soups to meatballs. Italian food is a classic weeknight dinner in many American households with our spaghetti sauce and pizza. Years ago when our family was healing from different autoimmune issues we switched to a grain-free diet. I learned quickly that pasta and dairy didn’t go well with our new lifestyle so I had to get…

But for all the futuristic problems AI promises to solve, there’s a distinctly practical one that’s threatening to hold it back from scaling up en masse. AI data centers rely on specialized electrical transformers—refrigerator-sized units that convert current to a safe voltage—to integrate with the grid, the network of power plants and wires that carry electricity across the country. But those transformers are in extremely short supply right now—so much so that wait times for new units are as high as four years. Demand has also sent prices up some 70% since January 2020.

  Saying there’s no value in running backs was always nonsense, but because bad teams think a ground game is going to make their garbage quarterback and shoddy offensive line redeemable, the stereotype gets furthered. So this offseason when some NFC South team signs Derrick Henry or Josh Jacobs or Saquon Barkley, I don’t want to hear about it being a waste of club resources. Najee Harris comments on Saquon Barkley and the value of RBs Bijan Robinson couldn’t save Art Smith’s job, and ditto for Christian McCaffrey with Matt Rhule. Yet the latter of those two was a legit…

Tired of meat and potatoes or chicken and rice for dinner? Food conglomerates like WK Kellogg and PepsiCo are pushing Frosted Flakes and Dorito casserole as pleasing alternatives.  Convenience food brands are asking customers to consider their products beyond their conventional uses, as sales for snack products continue to waver amid inflation-induced price hikes. WK Kellogg co-chairman and CEO Gary Pilnick encouraged cash-strapped consumers to have “cereal for dinner,” in a recent CNBC interview. “The cereal category has always been quite affordable, and it tends to be a great destination when consumers are under pressure,” he said. PepsiCo is also…

Everywhere you go on the internet, it feels like someone’s trying to sell you something. TikTok is being overrun by sales pitches for stuff on the TikTok Shop; Instagram is making it easier to buy everything you see in a post; platforms from Pinterest to Prime Video are adding ever more ads, ever more hungrily trying to get you to buy something. The new app Flip, in a sense, is just saying the quiet part out loud: it’s a social media platform that is absolutely, unequivocally, unabashedly about shopping all the way down. The Verge’s Mia Sato recently threw herself…
