It’s really time we stop commenting on people’s bodies, but I’ll admit that was accurate when I was pregnant: Watermelon was my number-one craving in all six of my pregnancies.

Who doesn’t love a good buffet? With fixed prices and the freedom to pile your plate high with as much food as you want, they can offer great value for your money.

When it comes to eating fruits and vegetables, most people just head straight to the produce department at their local grocery store. It's hard to beat the flavor and texture of fresh produce, and something about it just feels "better" for you than the canned or frozen types. But aside from all the canned food myths out there, the reality is that there are plenty of situations in which choosing canned fruit over fresh just makes sense — especially in the case of pineapple.

Canning is one of the oldest ways to preserve food, and currently one of the best ways to bring seafood from around the world to your plate. Most canned fish is prepared for the process by first brining in saltwater to draw out moisture and curb bacterial growth, followed by canning in oil or water. The high heat from canning kills the microbes in fish, but not every bacteria is removed in the canning process.

Green olives are one of my very favorite foods. Salty, fruity, briny, nutty, and buttery, their complexity adds depth to almost any dish, and they pair beautifully with a number of foods, notably cheese. In my humble opinion, no cheese plate is complete without a big bowl of green olives. They offer a zippy reprieve from all the richness a good snack board has to offer.

It's everyone's favorite summer cookout staple or ninth-inning treat: the classic hot dog. But while the meaty hot dog itself might claim all the attention, one should never underestimate the importance of the bun that surrounds it all. Nothing can complete that satisfying, savory bite quite like a soft, pillowy, great-tasting bread — followed up with some ketchup, mustard, or relish, of course.

Though it seems counterintuitive, there are surprising benefits to having a hot cup of tea during hot weather. As temperatures rise across the globe, many are searching for new and effective ways to stay cool. Already a tried and tested method in several parts of the world, drinking a cup of hot tea on a warm day has been found to cool the body down. Research has shown that having a cup of hot tea during a hot day can help the body sweat more, which helps it cool down faster. Cold drinks, on the other hand, do not speed up this process as much. Researchers also claim that the benefits of the hot drink depend on the type of climate you reside in. Those living in areas experiencing dry heat will benefit more from the effects of the hot tea than those living in more humid areas. As we deal with more and more heat waves, remember to maintain a healthy body temperature and to stay hydrated.
