Eggs used to be one of the cheapest protein sources out there. Back when they cost $2 a dozen, the 84 grams of protein in a carton of extra-large eggs worked out to just 48 cents per 20 grams of protein. But thanks to the recent bird flu outbreak and various other economic factors, egg prices have skyrocketed.

Hated, dogged, scandalous, sordid, nasty—these movies have been called all of those things, and much worse. Many have inspired death threats and physical attacks, while others have engendered heated wars of words that have lasted decades.

Right now, Sam’s Club is offering their basic tier membership for 50% off right now, which means you can get a year’s worth of wholesale shopping for just $25. And you can sign up online here, using code “C2C44" at checkout.

Apple went all-in on eSIM with the iPhone 14 line up, removing the option for SIM cards from their smartphones for the first time. In theory, there should be plusses there: There’s one less moving part to worry about on the phones now, which can both improve water resistance, and eliminate the risk of something…

In February, Hulu reaffirms its status as the unofficial true crime streaming service, launching a trio of new docuseries that delve into real (and binge-worthy events).

With a few billion people on the planet, is it really so bad that you fell head over heels with your ex’s friend? After all, treading through the often hellish dating world can be tough and stressful, so if you finally find someone you genuinely connect with, does it matter if they happen to be besties with your ex?

A good ice cream sandwich should have an alluring, yet sensible outer layer (the “bread,” if you will). It needs to be dry, flavorful, not too hard, and not too absorbent. This is why cookies are such a good candidate, but I’d like to encourage everyone to consider the Pop-Tart. It has all the ideal characteristics,…

Disney is doing nothing much to subvert February’s reputation as the worst month of the year. The Disney+ release calendar for February 2023 has arrived and on it you’ll find...nothing much that stands out, aside from the streaming premiere of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (Feb. 1), just in time to (maybe) coincide…

Getting a gift card at a discounted price can feel like a real win; it’s the sort of sale that truly feels like you’ve been given free money to tuck back into your pocket. However, it’s really only a deal if that gift card is for a store you were going to spend money in anyway—if you haven’t shopped at Old Navy in a…

If you’ve been feeding yourself for any real length of time, you have probably realized there’s a difference between “preparing food” and actual cooking. Mixing up some boxed mac & cheese and calling it dinner isn’t exactly the same thing as whipping up artichoke-stuffed beef tenderloin with a side of fingerling…

If you’ve finished your quest for the Holy Grail, don’t despair; there are still tons of historical treasures to uncover. These priceless objects may have fallen off the map, but that doesn’t mean they’re gone. They can’t be; the law of conservation of mass implies that matter can neither be created nor destroyed, so…

Pickles are polarizing. Even people who like vinegar and cucumbers sometimes struggle to eat them. I’m not one of those people. I love pickles and pickled things, but the cucumber pickle will forever be my favorite. Whether they’re subtly tangy, super sour, sweet, or somewhere in between, I will find a way to get them…

Stronger is better, right? Concentrated dish soap degreases better. Higher proof rum will get you drunk faster. You even scoop your ice cream from the part of the tub with the most fudge and nuts. But when it comes to rubbing alcohol, higher concentrations aren’t always better after all.

What is it about complaining that is so enticing and traps some people more than others? We all work with colleagues who complain, and there are some who just keep at it. But why?

SECURE 2.0 was signed into law at the end of 2022. Standing for “Setting Every Community Up for Retirement Enhancement,” the second version of this act is designed to keep building on improvements to the U.S. retirement system. Whether retirement is far off or fast approaching for you, here’s what to know about how…

“I met her in a club down in Old Soho, where they drink Champagne and it tastes just like cherry cola” isn’t my favorite Ray Davies lyric, but it’s certainly memorable. I’ve never had a sparkling wine that tasted just like cherry cola, but I have now had a beverage that tastes kind of like that Ray Davies lyric, and I…
