  10. Dan Burton heard of pigs with electric blue meat in California years ago from an old-timer he used to hunt with, but he’d brushed it off as urban legend. So when he cut open a dead wild pig in Monterey County, California, this past February, he was surprised to see blue fat— vivid, “7/11 slushie” blue—beneath the skin The color came from the blue dye of rodent poison, he correctly suspected, specifically from anticoagulant rodenticide bait containing the chemical diphacinone. He tipped off the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, which confirmed the presence of diphacinone and sounded the alarm to local hunters. It wasn’t the first time. Diphacinone is a restricted chemical in California, meant to be used only in specific circumstances for infestation control. The state tightly regulates anticoagulant rodenticides, but it doesn’t enforce a total ban. So it still shows up where it’s not supposed to be: in the bodies of many of California’s iconic animals, including condors, black bears, bobcats, and in the somewhat less beloved feral pigs. Wild pigs are turning electric blue in California. Here’s why. APPLE.NEWS Feral hogs with "slushie-blue" innards turned up in Monterey earlier this year—and not for the first time.

  16. Over the last few years, Burger King has faced a series of Chapter 11 bankruptcy filings from several of its franchisees, reflecting the broader economic challenges and consumer slowdown that have disrupted the overall fast-food industry. In response, Restaurant Brands International (RBI), Burger King's parent company, has made a bold move that its late-night fans have long been waiting for, creating a win-win situation for both the brand and its customers. To get Burger King back on track, RBI (QSR) completed a $1 billion all-cash deal to acquire all of Carrols Restaurant Group's shares in January 2024. Carrols was Burger King's largest U.S. franchisee, operating 1,022 restaurants across multiple states. This acquisition is part of RBI's "Reclaim to Flame" program, first announced in September 2022, which aims to accelerate Burger King's growth in the U.S. through a $700 million investment by the end of 2028. The initiative includes increasing advertising, digital enhancements, restaurant remodeling and relocations, kitchen equipment upgrades, and operational improvements. To increase traffic and sales while meeting consumer demand, Burger King announced that it will extend operating hours at more than 1,200 restaurants nationwide. Over the past few months, the fast-food chain has gradually extended its hours at various locations where it has seen high demand during late-night hours. RBI noted that this move contributed to an increase in the fast-food chain's U.S. comparable sales by 1.5% during the second quarter of fiscal 2025.

  21. How Kentucky bourbon went from boom to bust APPLE.NEWS Tariffs, oversupply and teetotaling Gen-Zs have all contributed to the downfall of one of America's most... As American as apple pie, Kentucky bourbon was booming after the last Great Recession ended. But as the economy has waned post-Pandemic - and with multiple trade wars on the horizon - the market may be drying up. Although the whiskey, which is traditionally made with corn and aged in charred oak barrels, has roots going all the way back to the 18th century, it wasn't until 1964 that it became an iconic piece of Americana, when Congress passed a law declaring it a "distinctive product of the United States".
