...from your carny days, what would be your perfect afternoon at the amusement park? Which snack, which ride? Even though we make fun of corn dogs in the movie, I actually think they're quite tasty, and when we were shooting the movie I got to ride these wooden roller coasters at the park in Pittsburgh which were some of the best I've ever been on. Later, the guys told me that they had taken off the brakes to make it extra scary for us. But I love bumper cars and I have a specific memory of being with...

"In the past, you'd have a blend of sources, and [the bees] seemed so much healthier." Johnson and many bee researchers believe this monocultural diet may have contributed...
...eight weeks starting April 20, supermarkets will be stocked with Pepsi and Mountain Dew Throwback. This limited-edition retro soda will be made with “real sugar” to give consumers a taste of the flavor of the 60s and 70s, before high-fructose corn syrup replaced cane sugar in 1984. From the way websites have pounced on this bit of pop trivia, you’d think this soda is the solution to obesity. However, the truth is that while the halo of “pure cane sugar” may help Americans sleep...
