The Big Game for 2023 is just around the corner, and I’m sure you’re thinking about the best foods and game day snacks to have at the ready for your...

Some will love it, some will hate it, and those who hate it are probably lying… Today is International NO DIET Day! National Today says, “Mashed potatoes? Yes. Brownies? Absolutely. Lasagna?

Of course, we appreciate International No Diet Day for its body positivity and self-acceptance, but we also appreciate some good cheese fries.”

In an active place like the Treasure Valley, you don't have oodles of extra time to make a fancy charcuterie board for the kids at snack time, so it's a good thing frozen grapes will do. These snack hacks are timesavers that will keep kids out of chip bags too.

We might have consumed five thousand calories yesterday (mostly in chips), and before we succumb to the pressure of polishing off the last bits, there could be a better way that beats eating them straight out of the bag.
