If you read labels on food items before you buy them, then you've probably seen the dolphin-safe label on many brands of canned tuna. This graphic isn't informing you that the product is safe for dolphins to eat, or even hinting that the can contains dolphin meat mixed in with the tuna.

My father has worked for a big-box grocery chain for more than 40 years, so I’m privy to a few supermarket strategies that average shoppers might not be aware of—like why children’s cereal “happens” to be stocked on shelves that meet their eye level. Still, I checked in with a food retail expert to get the inside scoop on why eggs and milk are always located at the back of the store. And the reasons are no coincidence.

The Sneaky Reason Eggs & Milk Are at the Back of the Grocery Store

Perhaps you're one of the many people who've switched from milk to dark chocolate because the latter has less sugar and more antioxidants. But before you tear into that candy bar or hit the kitchen to start cooking up a homemade treat (like our salted caramel recipe), there's something you should know. Your dark chocolate may be hiding an even darker secret. It's known to contain two heavy metals — cadmium and lead — that can cause harmful health effects. Pregnant people and children are at higher risk.

Buttery, toasty, savory, and oozing with cheese, crispy grilled cheese sandwiches are among the best midnight snacks one can have. Plus, they only take mere minutes to whip up. However, the next time you're up late and have a hankering for a quick bite, try replacing it with a snack that is sweet, nutty, crunchy, and melts in your mouth — a grilled peanut butter and jelly sandwich makes for one seriously scrumptious substitution. Nothing against a classic PB&J, but the extra effort is worth it for an experience that will truly excite your tastebuds — heating the sandwich changes it both texturally and flavor-wise.

Leave it to Ree Drummond to prove that she doesn't need an expensive egg pan to make a perfectly moist omelet. Instead, she need only gather her ingredients, a pot of boiling water, and a simple zip-top bag. And in case you're wondering, no, she doesn't boil the omelet to make it so tender and moist, at least, not directly. Instead, the zip-top bag and the hot water work in tandem to cook the omelet. She demonstrated how she does it on her Food Network show, "The Pioneer Woman."
