While reality television attracts men with the allures of non-foam shaving gel and pinstripe Gucci dress shirts, some men chose machismo and masculinity over makeovers. To some, the quest for rock hard abs has become ingrained into their needs for perfecting their appearance and self-image...
...three flavors: black, with sugar and with cream? That was before 1985, when Howard Schultz opened his first Seattle coffeehouse--later named Starbucks--and taught caffeine-craving consumers from Birmingham to Bangkok that what they really wanted was a $4 venti extra-hot triple-shot latte, easy on the foam.

All we end up piecing together are the strange color-coded pieces of foam on our table, until one amateur sleuth discovers that these foam slips actually signal to each waiter which entrée the guest pre-ordered. The salmon is a tad overcooked, and the chicken is basically a glorified chicken nugget—a slab of white meat covered in golden fry. Popular...
