Why do we say "sweet tooth"? "Derived from the literal craving for sugary treats. The history of "Sweet Tooth" is rooted in the notion that some individuals have an inherent inclination towards sugary indulgences. Some people are born with more sweet receptor taste buds than other people. Having more sweet receptors means they react more strongly to sweet flavours. These people are the ones who are often said to have a sweet tooth, but perhaps it would be more appropriate to say they have a sweet tongue."
January 19th is National Popcorn Day! Popcorn's history goes back centuries. It was used by Aztecs for decorations and rituals. To soon become a popular snack in the Americas. Check with your local movie 🎬 theater and see if they are offering free or discounted popcorn 🍿. How do you like popcorn? Savory? Sweet? Salty?
I love a one pot meal. Especially around the holidays when there's a lot of dishes to wash. This ground turkey macaroni is a classic 30 minutes or less meal. Put your own spin on it. Add artichokes, bacon, kale...the possibilities are endless.
