TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: A Restaurant That Is Bringing Mom’s Home Cooking To Their Menu With Real “Moms”

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: A Restaurant That Is Bringing Mom’s Home Cooking To Their Menu With Real “Moms”

There is truly nothing better than Mom’s home cooking. Especially if you’re from an Italian family. But it’s so hard to find when you’re dining out. Until now!

The owner of some restaurants in England named Peppe Corsaro is from Italy so he decided to make this happen. He has set out to hire actual Italian moms and grandmothers, who are mostly in their 60s, to do all the cooking for his menus. They bring in new moms every few months and they use their own homemade family recipes from over the years to serve.

What a brilliant idea! Someone should start this around here.

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Which animal has the longest lifespan?

MUNDANE MYSTERIES: Which animal has the longest lifespan?

The animal with the longest lifespan isn’t one that you might think. It’s actually a species of clam called the ocean quahog (fans of Family Guy are cheering right now). They are known to live until about 400 years old!

You can find them all the way up and down the east coast from Canada to Florida. There are a lot of them around here in the Rhode Island and Connecticut area. So if you’re eating a delicious stuffed Quahog this summer just know that thing might be hundred of years old.

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Students invent genius solution to your messy burrito problem

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Students invent genius solution to your messy burrito problem

This is a classic “how has someone not invented this yet?!” story. Well, now they have.

Your messy lunches eating burritos or wraps are about to be a thing of the past thanks to a group of brilliant chemical engineering students at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. They are creating something called “Tastee Tape”. Essentially it’s an edible adhesive that holds the burrito together.

They were inspired by their own experience of making a mess every time they would eat lunch. Since they are applying for a patent they wouldn’t give the secret ingredients out. But they apparently are all safe to consume, food grade, and “common dietary additives”.

This sounds like it would be a good invention to test too. Thank of all the burritos you get to eat!

I can’t wait for this to hit the market. Head here to see what it looks like
