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.

14 Foods You Should Completely Avoid at a Buffet

If you're laboring over a package of fresh chicken, wondering if you should wash it or not, the science is pretty clear.

This post in Reddit's "Am I the A-hole?" is the most ridiculous thing you will read all day. It's pretty next-level. It's about a Redditor who rents out a studio apartment in the basement of their house. According to them, it is "very explicitly stated in the lease agreement that tenants are not allowed to bring any non-vegetarian foods onto the premises."
