Some food and drink offerings are simply synonymous with summer. Barbecues in the backyard, ice pops on the boardwalk, a cold drink by the pool. And let’s not forget cookies. Yes, you can enjoy cookies anytime, but Oreo’s latest offering is all about a beloved summer flavor. We’re looking...

Oreo Is Releasing a Brand-New Flavor for Summer

It’s easy to feel like the summer is nearly over by the start of July. The bucket list has plenty of checks by now, and vacation days might already be behind you. The good news is that many weeks are ahead before the regular hustle and bustle of the year returns. The season is just starting, meaning we have nearly three months of warm weather and late sunsets to enjoy. Catching a new movie release, trying out a fresh dinner recipe, or spontaneously stopping for a scoop of your favorite ice cream are simple ways to keep the slump at bay.

When you find yourself craving an indulgent breakfast, Panera might not be the first place that comes to mind. Typically, the fast-casual restaurant focuses on fresh ingredients and lighter fare. They offer a mixture of baked goods alongside steel-cut oatmeal, souffles, and handhelds such as the Garden Avo and Egg White Sandwich—offering a bit of a reprieve from the sea of greasy fast food breakfast options.

You've embraced the classic self-care tradition of ordering a large, everything pizza from your favorite local joint as a way to unwind after a stressful week. Despite your best efforts, you still end up with a refrigerator full of leftovers. You don't want to let them go to waste, but getting that perfect crust and close-to-fresh bite again can prove incredibly challenging: The crust is too soggy, the cheese gets too crispy, and the toppings just aren't ideal even after some time in the oven. But with a little kitchen know-how, you can reheat your pizza with the help of water for the closest-to-fresh bite possible.

Grocery store rotisserie chicken is a delicious and affordable way to add protein to your shopping excursion, and there's arguably no better option than Costco's rotisserie chicken (it took the top spot in our ranking of grocery store rotisserie chickens, after all). This pre-cooked, pre-seasoned chicken is hot and ready in the deli, just waiting for you to take it home after your giant haul at the wholesale retailer. If you've been wary of buying a rotisserie chicken because you fear how long it's been sitting in its package, we have good news. According to Costco superfans and authors David and Susan Schwartz, both of whom spoke with Business Insider, each chicken is available to customers for around two hours. After that, employees remove the time-stamped chickens from the shelf, and they're repurposed into other Costco deli offerings.

When you think of Chick-fil-A, it's not likely that the first word that comes to mind is “salad.” It’s no secret that fast food salads generally get a bad rap for being sad and wilted. Typically, I don’t disagree. But, I have stumbled upon an exception....

Chick-Fil-A’s Most Underrated Menu Item Is Finally Getting the Attention It Deserves

Crackers are one of my most favorite foods. I love the crispy texture and subdued taste that makes them the perfect carriers for everything from tuna salad to sliced cheese. Aside from classic cheese-style crackers, one of my favorites is the beloved round, buttery style. It’s somehow crispy, flakey, buttery, salty, and overall perfect for snacking. I have my go-to (heyyyy, Ritz), but I’m always looking for the next best thing. So when I was given the opportunity to try several brands to pick the most delicious, of course I said, “yeah, sure.”
