Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Dunkin’s Fall 2026 Menu Just Landed — And It Comes With a Celebrity Breakfast

Seasonal lattes and specialty drinks can carry a hefty sugar and calorie load, largely from flavored syrups and whipped toppings. To keep your order lighter, ask for the syrup pumps reduced, skip the whipped topping, or opt for a protein-based option like a nutty or espresso-forward latte over a swirl or chiller-style drink. Choosing a smaller size or an iced coffee over a blended drink is also an easy way to enjoy the seasonal flavor without the full indulgence.

The Last Corn: How to Honor Summer’s Most Fleeting Vegetable

Fresh sweet corn is a meaningful source of lutein and zeaxanthin — carotenoid antioxidants that accumulate specifically in the retina and that research consistently associates with reduced risk of age-related macular degeneration and cataracts. These compounds are fat-soluble, meaning that eating corn with butter significantly increases their absorption compared to eating it plain. The specific sweetness of peak-season corn also reflects a higher sugar content and a correspondingly higher concentration of the water-soluble vitamins and phytonutrients that develop during the full ripening process — making the peak-season local ear nutritionally superior to its commercially processed alternative.
