SNACK TIME: Fortune cookies, Advertisement insensitivity, George Washington's brew, Do you hate water?, Orangettes, and the Cheeseburger law
dianaeng.com - You may or may not remember whimsical clothing designer Diana Eng from the second season of Project Runway. These days, she's been busy making scarves ... never mind, let me get to the point. Scarves, and fortune cookie coin purses! These unique leather babies are going for a tall $65 a pop. Pricey yes, but adorable, right?

- Remember the Jonestown Cult Massacre? Nearly, 1,000 people killed in a mass suicide via cyanide-spiked Kool-Aid for the good of some freak cult? Hacienda Mexican Restaurants in Indiana thought it'd been funny to reference the tragedy to boost cocktail sales: "We're like a cult with better Kool-Aid: To die for." How horrific.

- Our first president was also a budding brewmaster. New York's Public Library recently released George Washington's handwritten directions for making "small beer" on its Tumblr, shares Bon Appetit. The recipe requires a ton of molasses and smartly calls upon the weather to determine fermentation time.
- Whatever happened to just having a glass of water? Is the taste of nothing so repulsive that we have to flavor our water to tolerate the exhausting act of hydration? Oh, America. Kraft has released a line of liquid flavor pouches to enhance your agua with infusions such as sweet tea and strawberry watermelon, believing that "water needs a wingman." Check out the zero-calorie MiO situation at Slashfood.
- Yo, we're all about nose to tail, especially when it's applied to all foods and not just animals. I came across this recipe on Serious Eats today for Bittersweet Chocolate Orangettes -- candied orange peels, for when you're done with the pulp -- dipped in chocolate (or anything else, for that matter).
- Minnesota's state House reps just passed the "Personal Responsibility in Food Consumption" Act -- appropriately nicknamed the "Cheeseburger Bill" -- reports CBS. This will prevent those who consume only fast food and sodas from suing chains in blame of their obesity and weight gain.
