- If you microwave Pop-Tarts instead of putting them in the toaster, Kellogg’s official instructions say to microwave them for exactly three seconds. Then “cool briefly before handling.”
- Almost 16% of English words start with the letter “T.” Only 0.045% start with “Z.”
- The correct way to eat caviar is by putting it on the back of your hand, between your index finger and thumb. You’re not supposed to use a spoon.
