Jill Mauer spent more than 30 years as a government inspector, watching over meat plants as workers slaughtered and processed animals into market-ready chops and wings. Now she has a warning.

Cocido-style Nilaga is a soul-warming soup perfect for cold weather. Made with tender beef shanks, smoky sausage, saba bananas, and vegetables, it makes a hearty, tasty meal the whole family will love.

Chappell Roan And Jorginho Are Beefing

Life is beautiful due its unpredictability. For example, until this weekend I never would have been able to imagine a scenario in which global pop superstar Chappell Roan and 2021 third-place Ballon d'Or finisher Jorginho were engaged in a feud because a security guard may or may not have yelled at Jude Law's daughter.

Bryce Harper Is Still Grouchy About Dave Dombrowski’s Loose Ponderings

Is this the year when the good times finally end for the Philadelphia Phillies? Probably not. They've got stars all over the damn place, and to judge from years of vitriol you have to assume that by jettisoning Nick Castellanos, the Phillies have banked another 20 wins, easily. The loss of Ranger Suárez stings, I'm sure, but the Phillies still go at least six deep in trustworthy starting…
