One Walmart shopper is issuing a warning against buying meat at the massive retail chain—but the reason why isn’t strictly tied to Walmart. It seems that customers at stores such as Walmart believe it's acceptable to grab perishable items, such as meat or dairy, and then place them on any available shelf if they decide they no longer want them.

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. Americans with big appetites love the buffet concept, and restaurants often lose money with those folks. On the other hand, light eaters like myself are more the target audience. We pay the set price and hardly eat anything, relatively speaking, resulting in a positive cash flow for the restaurant.

Trevor Deblase says his emotional trauma has more value than allowed under the law, which in New York state currently considers dogs to be mere property. 

That definition is “antiquated and needs to be changed based on modern society’s views that pets are considered to be members of the family, and not just personal property,” attorney Andrew Bokar argued in Brooklyn Supreme Court.



The cherished four-year-old Duke’s life was tragically...
