11 Servers Share the Story of Their Worst Customer Ever

Waiting tables was honestly one of my favorite jobs ever – you worked with fun people, the job was fast-paced so it was hard to get bored, the hours were nice (if you’re a certain age) and the money wasn’t bad either. It wasn’t all good, though, and aside from cleaning stinky stuff in the...

McDonald’s China Launches a Sundae Doused in Chili Sauce

We all know that cuisines and tastes vary from place to place, and culture to culture. That said, it can still be hard to imagine sometimes that anyone would enjoy something like spicy chili sauce over their ice cream. And this is from someone who really enjoys the salty and sweet phenomenon. https://www.instagram.com/p/CMTzn3vAUs_/ It’s called...

Alaskan Beads Reveal Secrets about America’s Past

It’s sort of crazy to think that people are still discovering new information about our “recent” (in historical terms) past. In January, two researchers in Fairbanks, Alaska did just that. They took their field by storm, when they announced that they could prove European traders had made their way to Alaska before Columbus ever set...
