Be it a classic Big Mac or a hearty Quarter Pounder, the core ingredient that these McDonald's burgers can't do without are the ground beef patties. Some of you fast food fans out there might have wondered how McDonald's patties came to be while chomping down on that burger. Well, there aren't dedicated burger-shapers pressing fresh patties from a bucket of ground beef working behind the counter at each McDonald's. To streamline the operation, McDonald's buys all of its ingredients — from the beef patties in the burgers to the coffee it brews — from external vendors.

If we were to rank the most used ingredients in the kitchen, onions would no doubt feature somewhere near the top. This allium is added to almost every dinner dish to create a deliciously aromatic flavor base and also serves as a perfect topping on pizzas, salads, tacos, and sandwiches. However, despite being commonplace in the culinary world, onions are tricky to cut, especially when aiming for perfectly thin slices. The traditional method of using a knife can be time-consuming and more likely to produce uneven pieces. While a mandolin, though designed for this kind of task, is intimidating for some people, or may not be available in most kitchens.

Each summer sees the sweet arrival of stone fruit season, where local farmers markets and grocery stores source fresh peaches from around the United States. You can often get peaches year-round, but there's nothing like the juicy sweetness of a fresh peach that didn't have to travel far to get to your plate. If you've ever heard of Georgia peaches, it's easy to assume that Georgia is the peach capital of the United States. And while this state has certainly made a name for itself in the peach industry, it doesn't hold the top spot.

The process of making honey is nothing short of impressive. It begins as nectar, a sugary liquid that is produced by flowers. Then, bees play an integral role in its formation by collecting that nectar, bringing it to their hives, and breaking it down into simple sugars. This process occurs both in the bees' stomachs and through the mouth-to-mouth passing of the honey before it is deposited into the honeycomb. Using their wings, the bees reduce the water content within the broken-down sugars even further and the result is delicious honey.

Aurora’s pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness, which only allow a maximum 30-day stay, have been cycling the same individuals in and out, city staff told council members Thursday.

Put the two together, and you've got a mixture that requires plenty of care to help maintain its integrity.
