Lay's Made Chips Out of Potatoes Grown in NFL Stadium Soil
Here's another new product that would be cooler if you could actually buy it: Lay's has secretly been growing potatoes in dirt taken from NFL STADIUMS. And they made a limited-edition line of CHIPS with them. But you have to win a bag.
They're called Lay's "Golden Grounds" chips, and the tagline is, "Grown in Glory." They did it for 29 of the 32 teams . . . Browns, Bengals, and Broncos fans are out of luck. For teams that play on turf, they used dirt from somewhere else in the stadium. Then they mixed it with more dirt and grew potatoes in it.
To win a bag, go to Lays.com/GoldenGrounds and click on your favorite team's bag. That automatically tags them in a Tweet. Then you have to post a photo or video showing that you're a die-hard fan. They're doing five different giveaways between now and January 21st, and only giving out 200 bags per team.

Our Favorite Foods to Pair with Wine Are . . . Wings and Mac-and-Cheese
Wine and cheese are a classic pairing. But add two more words to that, and it's a lot less classy. A new poll found the top food men like to pair with wine is . . . MAC-and-cheese.
The #1 choice for women isn't much better . . . it's CHICKEN WINGS. Which you could argue is even trashier than mac-and-cheese. (I'm not sure I'm buying this poll. How many women out there are really sipping Chablis while scarfing hot wings?)
The poll also found 80% of us don't follow the classic wine etiquette rules: 44% hold the glass by the bowl instead of the stem . . . 43% sometimes add ICE to their wine . . . 32% never swirl or sniff it . . . 25% are chuggers, not sippers . . . and 10% of Americans admit they usually drink their wine out of a coffee mug. (Like I'm doing right now.)

A guy named Ram Mehta owns two pizza joints in North Texas, and he's also the founder of a charity called Everyone Eatz that feeds people who can't afford to pay.
There's a sign on the window that says anyone can get a couple of slices, no questions asked. And in case the staff doesn't treat them with respect, it says to call Ram directly, and lists his personal phone number.
He was homeless himself at one point, and his mom told him to never forget where he came from. So he started it after she passed away three years ago, and never stopped.
