The way she cooks, it wouldn’t surprise us if Ree Drummond kept her shimmery skin fresh by smearing it with butter each morning, but it seems that’s not her secret — and neither is the facial cream apparently being hawked on Facebook with a fake endorsement from her. On her blog this weekend, the Pioneer Woman quelled any suspicion she might be leaving the Food Network to sell skincare products full-time.

“There is a wacky rumor circulating around Facebook that I have decided to quit my Food Network show and devote my life to selling facial cream. The source of the rumor is an unscrupulous company trying to trick people into buying (you guessed it) facial cream. I have nothing to do with this facial cream (please don’t buy it!), and more importantly: I am not quitting my Food Network show!”

It’s time to add humble russet potatoes to the list of staples you should be making in your Instant Pot. They cook up tender and ultra-creamy just the way you love, but in a fraction of the time required with the oven. It’s a meal prep miracle, and the best solution to making baked potatoes on a weeknight. Top them with a pat of butter or dollop of sour cream for a quick side, or whip up your favorite filling to turn them into a quick dinner.

Alternative meat and non-dairy items might be having a moment at the grocery store, but according to a recent study by the British University of Southampton, men are still “embarrassed” to order meatless options.

Inspired by the “major global and environmental health challenges” caused by overconsumption of animal products, Man Food Project Bristol surveyed 22 men (a very small sample size) with various relationships to meat: a few were exploring vegetarianism, others were on economically restricted diets, and the rest wanted to build muscle. In most cases, regardless of their reasons for making their food choices, the men expressed feeling embarrassment and shame around being seen ordering a steak-free salad.

For many of us, doing the dishes is one of the worst chores there is. But it’s often those people who can’t stand doing the dishes who are the best at avoiding them for a while and then getting them done efficiently, which is exactly why I reached out for advice to people who don’t have a dishwasher and just absolutely hate doing the dishes.

I used to make secret Costco trips. “Where are you right now?” a friend would ask over the phone. “Shh, don’t tell anyone, but I’m at Costco shopping for the party.” Giant shrimp platters and vats of cocktail sauce aside, Costco has become a part of my weekly life in shopping for my restaurant in California.

During my shopping trips, I started noticing how many trendy items Costco was stocking — items I’d usually purchase at my pricey natural foods store in a smaller size, for a higher price per unit. It seems the Costco shopper is increasingly opening up to low-carb items, superfoods, health foods, Asian-inspired foods, and alternative coffees — and the grocery giant is delivering on the trends. Here are some of my favorites that I’ve noticed lately.

Netflix breakout hit To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before launched the internet’s collective crush on Noah Centineo, but the movie had one more surprising side effect that no one could have predicted: Yakult yogurt enjoyed a spike in sales.

Even if you don’t know the name of the fermented skim milk smoothie — which was created in Japan in the ’30s and made its way to America in 1999 — you’ll almost certainly recognize the packaging. Yakult comes in a squat white plastic bottle, with a red foil top. Only the most keen-eyed viewers will be able to catch the shot of Centineo’s character, Peter Kavinsky, taking a quick sip of Yakult while driving.

Can openers may win the award for the least sexy kitchen gadget around. However, they’d also take the title for one of the most essential tools. Even if you don’t have a habit of warming up canned soups or opt for fresh vegetables over canned, we’re guessing you still need to open a can from time to time (those whole peeled tomatoes aren’t going to let themselves out!). And a can opener is somehow the only tool for the job (unless you’re buying pull-top cans, but even then, those tabs have a tendency to break off without the lid). You’re gonna need a good one, too — there’s just something so annoying about a junky can opener!

If you’re in the market for a new one, we’ve got you covered. Here are our picks for the best electric and manual can openers out there.
