  New York City used to be home to more than 1,500 Jewish delis. Now there are 20.
• Get ready for the McPlant, a meatless burger from McDonalds.
• Dick's Drive-in, a Seattle area burger joint, pays their workers at least $20 an hour. Their cheeseburgers are $2.35.
• NASA discovered a planet outside of the milky way recently for the first time in human history. Up until then, the planet discoveries were within our galaxy.
• The Guinness book of records was invented by the Guinness beer folks. They figured a book of verifiable facts would help stop bar arguments.
• A duet sung by Freddie Mercury and Michael Jackson remained unfinished because Mercury walked out of the recording. He couldn’t tolerate Jackson bringing his pet llama into the studio.
• A single spaghetti noodle is called a spaghetto.
• Coyote vests for dogs are a thing. Google the images, I dare you.
• You would think that Italy, France, and Brazil are in the top ten highest consumers of coffee. Nope. The Nordic countries dominate coffee consumption and are all within the top 10 countries worldwide. Further, Finland (the highest consumer in the world) more than doubles the annual consumption of Italy.
• A 13 page article in New York Magazine called "Tribal rites of the new Saturday night" was the inspiration for the making of the movie Saturday Night Fever.
