  1. 9-volt battery-flavored tortilla chips Doritos, eat your heart out! Unfortunately, though, the sample packs are on a lottery system.
  2. With tariffs on coffee and tea, WaPo thinks yaupon might catch on.

  11. Me, neither. According to these folks, you'll probably see what the plate is broken down into.
  12. TJ's Dubai Chocolate -- anyone tried it yet?
  13. Article in the Guardian Awards website
