Subway Created a Cadbury Creme Egg Sub for Easter
If this sounds good, you'll have to hop on a quick flight to England to try it. Or make one yourself . . .
Subway created a new Cadbury Creme Egg SANDWICH for Easter. They're giving out 500 at four locations in the U.K. tomorrow.
It's called the Cadbury Creme Egg SubMelt, and there's not much to it. It's just a bunch of Cadbury eggs crushed and melted on a six-inch loaf of Italian white bread.
Cadbury says Subway came up with the idea and approached them about it. They claim it's "surprisingly delicious."
Each Cadbury sub is 530 calories. Most of their normal six-inch subs are in the 300 to 400-calorie range.

Lab-Grown Chicken Meat Is Close To Showing Up On Shelves And Restaurant Menus
The possibility of seeing lab-grown meat on shelves and restaurant menus has been discussed frequently over the past few years, but it looks like it is very close to becoming a reality. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has cleared two American producers to bring their products to market during the past five months, and “that is a watershed moment because it’s never happened before in the history of humanity,” according to the founder and CEO of UPSIDE Foods, Dr. Uma Valeti.
UPSIDE is one of the two companies (the other is GOOD Meat) approved by the USDA. The final guidelines on inspecting facilities that produce cultivated meat and how to label it should be finalized sometime this year. Every American is estimated to consume 225 pounds of red meat and chicken every year, and cultivated meat aims to protect animals and cut greenhouse gas emissions. The cultured-cell meat starts with animal stem cells fed a mixture of vitamins, fats, sugar, and oxygen in steel bioreactors that yield real meat tissue without the need to raise and slaughter animals.
Valeti says that the price of their UPSIDE chicken would start “slightly above organic,” which would be price-competitive with the real thing within 5 to 15 years. He expects their product to show up first in fine-dining restaurants in California. There are naysayers, including Todd Wilkinson, president of the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, who reminds people that “my product doesn’t have to be genetically engineered,” Other critics maintain that cultivating meat is nothing more than a novelty. We should soon be able to see if it does become a reality.
