SNACK TIME: Instant noodle SOS, Sweet beets, Ice cream hustlin', Agriculture from above, What happens when you eat bat, and The Situation's vodka ... situation.
- Bid adieu to the arduous process of preparing instant noodles! You can kiss your days of battling with those flimsy paper lids goodbye with these funny plastic figures: Cupmen by designer Akira Mabuchi. Don't worry about the steam leaving the cup, your Cupman's got it covered. Their heat-predictive little arms turn white when your noodles are good to go, so they'll never be undercooked.
- Among this week's thousands of intriguing and decadent recipes shared on the web, I give you this simple gem: candied beet chips. Spring veg is now coming into abundance (if the weather cooperates), and despite its status as a root, the beet is at its most delicious height in summer. Make some candy out of it.
- Firecracker pops for the kiddies ... painkillers for the adults? A Staten Island ice cream truck got busted this week for selling ice cream cones as a front to sling Oxycodone more discreetly, New York Times reports. Wonder how they got caught; hustling the addicts into the truck after ice cream hours to score isn't obvious or anything.
- Wired collected an amalgam of photographs of agriculture lots taken from space. Crop tactics and vegetation patterns become so interesting when they are morphed into what look like abstract art. Look at Libya! The ribbons of water in Kazakhstan and Egypt!
- On a visit to South Africa and the Seychelles, this guy ate grilled bat, and the whole process sounds pretty gnarly. The wings. Sick.
- Oh my god. Are we serious right now? That guy from Jersey Shore, "The Situation," has patented a vodka infused with Caseins for protein and body mass regulation. It is melodramatically named Devotion. So you can have abs like him while you're pumping fists in the club. Makin' millions.
