About once a year, three wonderful friends and I get together for a meal. Sometimes we host it at someone’s house. Sometimes we go to a restaurant. This year, I hosted the dinner at my home and kept it pretty simple. I made a vegetarian lasagna with no-bake lasagna noodles. My friends brought cocktails, bread, and salad. I pulled a few bottles of wine out of the cellar. The morning before the dinner, I panicked a little. I wondered if I should have something to nibble on before we dig into the meal. I knew that whatever I made had…
A long-term study found men’s heart disease risk begins diverging from women’s at age 35.Men reached major heart disease milestones seven to 10 years earlier than women.Lifestyle factors didn’t fully explain why men developed heart disease earlier. You probably didn’t expect your 35th birthday to come with a recommendation to see a cardiologist. After all, heart disease feels like something that happens to folks in their 50s or 60s, not people in their mid-30s. But new research suggests that for men, this milestone birthday might be exactly when it’s time to start paying closer attention to cardiovascular health, even if…

We’re talking servings of spinach, broccoli, and green beans that sometimes topped 500 grams in a single meal—that’s more than a pound of vegetables on one plate. Meanwhile, foods like pasta sat there, barely touched.

Aldi may be best known for its budget pricing, international imports, and the “Aisle of Shame,” but there’s another great benefit of shopping at Aldi—its copycat products. Aldi has a wide range of products—from appliances to homeware to food—that closely resemble popular items from well-known brands. In fact, copycat products are one of the many reasons Aldi has such an impassioned customer base. Before shopping at Aldi, I was really particular about name-brand products. Nothing but Heinz ketchup, Hellmann’s mayonnaise, or Saz’s barbecue sauce would do. But now that I’ve become a regular Aldi customer, I’ve been able to appreciate…
