When she’s not writing, you’ll find her enjoying her tiny Florida beach town or exploring Central Florida’s theme parks.

t’s shaping up to be quite a year for Mountain Dew fans. Earlier this month, PepsiCo released Dirty Mountain Dew, the next product in a wave of flavors inspired by the "dirty soda" trend. Mountain Dew is also partnering with Major League Baseball this summer, releasing a Baja Blast-themed baseball glove and giving away free soda during the 2026 MLB season.
Now, more new Mountain Dew products have been spotted at Walmart, and they're perfect for pool days and warmer weather. But you can't drink this release.
Protein may seem like an overly popular nutritional buzzword at the moment, but the macronutrient has long been a key part of helping the body to build muscle, repair tissue and maintain bone density.12 In fact, snacking on high-protein foods like savory deli turkey or creamy cottage cheese is a fantastic way to get some extra protein grams in each day, so it's no surprise that even celebrities prefer to grab some protein-packed treats when they have a bit of downtime.
It’s a busy time for motivational speaker Mel Robbins. The Mel Robbins Podcast was recently nominated for a Golden Globe, her book The Let Them Theory has sold more than 9 million copies worldwide, and most appearances on her upcoming The Let Them Tour are already sold out. The author and mom of three also posts often to social media, sharing the ins and outs of life with her family.
There’s a misconception that the frozen food aisle contains nothing but heat-and-eat pizzas and cartons of ice cream, but there are also plenty of healthy items in your grocer’s freezers.
In fact, because products like frozen fruits and vegetables are often harvested at peak ripeness, you’ll often find lots of nutrients tucked away in the frozen foods aisle, too. We’ve long been fans of products like frozen cherries, spinach and edamame, so the latest study findings from the American Frozen Foods Institute make sense to us.
I remember the good old days when everything at Dollar Tree really did cost $1.
In recent years, the chain has raised prices to as much as $1.50 per item, and added a selection of premium merchandise that costs even more — just as much as chains like Five Below or Dollar General.
There’s something incredibly comforting about a delicious bowl of stew. And, whether it’s a silky bowl of Guingambó Guisado, a Puerto Rican okra stew, or a simple dish of Asopao de Gandules, the meal provides even more coziness when it's a recipe that’s been handed down through generations or passed from friend to friend. Case in point: Bridgertonstar Yerin Ha’s go-to comfort food, a classic Korean stew she has fond memories of her mother cooking.
It’s a popular question that gets asked in plenty of celebrity interviews: If you knew you were about to eat your last meal on Earth, what would it be? For some, it’s an extravagant steak dinner with all the fixings, while others think of simple pleasures like the perfect peanut butter and jelly sandwich. The answer can tell a lot about a person, from easy things like their favorite food to deeper information about how they grew up.
While promoting the film Wuthering Heights, Australian actor Margot Robbie appeared on the Table Manners podcast, where she chatted with hosts Jessie and Lennie Ware about everything from her favorite pasta dish (spaghetti bolognese) to the creative way her family made nachos growing up (Doritos topped with baked beans and cheese, warmed in the oven). And, of course, Robbie was faced with the all-important question of exactly what her “last supper” would be.
If you’ve been tuning in to the Winter Olympics for a while, you’re probably familiar with speed skater Apolo Ohno and ski racer Julia Mancuso. Both Team USA alums have plenty of experience using workouts and nutrition as training tools, and they’ve got the medals to prove it.
But once your time competing in the Winter Olympic Games is over, how does your daily diet change? EatingWell chatted with Ohno, 43, and Mancuso, 41, to find out.
Starting the day with a high protein breakfast is a great way to set yourself up for success, and the trendy macronutrient is showing up everywhere from homemade smoothies to new lattes at Dunkin' and Starbucks.
What’s more, the traditional breakfast foods, like crispy bacon or scrambled eggs, pack a ton of protein. Now, a new line of frozen meals is headed to grocery stores, making it easier than ever to grab a hearty, protein-packed breakfast on your way out the door in the morning.
When my kids were little, we embraced the magic of Santa Claus. Christmas morning meant lots of presents to unwrap, some from mom and dad, and plenty from Santa. Still, we valued giving our kids experiences, as well. When grandparents and other relatives asked for holiday gift ideas for our kids, we'd always suggest things like a membership to our local zoo or movie theater gift certificates — gifts that would provide us with time together as a family instead of sending more stuff into our house.
