It has been a very busy summer for food recalls in the United States. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) announced several recalls over the past few months for everything from summer classics such as ice creams and hot dogs to fresh produce and even seven million pounds of deli meat. The reasons for the recalls included potential contaminations of listeria, lead, and a bacterium that can produce a fatal neurotoxin.

Of all Trader Joe's best products of 2024, one underrated yet highly useful item went unmentioned — a frozen water bottle. One might wonder how such a simple and common commodity could be worthy of a special shout-out. However, as essential as water is to the human body, this stuff isn't meant for drinking (at least not for a while). Instead, rather ingeniously, Trader Joe's frozen water bottles can be placed in the same bag as your perishable groceries to keep them nice and cold as you make your way home.

6 Foods You Should Never Store on the Counter

Many of us strive for a perfectly organized fridge, and it’s a worthy goal. An organized fridge can help cut down on food waste and make it easier to find ingredients when you’re in the middle of cooking.

Angry Aurorans and Denverites on social media poked fun at the news media Friday as more information came out about Venezuelan gangs on the Front Range. Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman posted on Facebook that the city will use court orders to shut down additional apartment complexes that have been infiltrated by the gangs. It seemed to contradict comments made by Gov. Jared Polis, who said the gang problem was a figment of Aurora council member Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.
