๐Ÿฝ๏ธ The Daily Bite: Today is National Chinese Take-out Day! ๐Ÿฅก
That famous white takeout box was patented back in 1894 as an "oyster pail" โ€” and here's the part most people never learn: it unfolds flat into its own plate. The box was the dish all along.
What's your standing order, Meal-y-onaires โ€” and which spot around Columbus does takeout best? ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ The Daily Bite: Today is National Candy Day! ๐Ÿฌ
The word "candy" traces back to "qandi," an old Arabic word for crystallized sugar โ€” sugar cooked down until it sets into something sweet enough to travel the whole world. Every candy counter in Indiana starts with that one idea.
Your turn, Meal-y-onaires: chocolate candy or fruity candy โ€” and what's the one you can never walk past? ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ The Daily Bite: Today is National Sandwich Day! ๐Ÿฅช
Legend says the sandwich is named for John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, who in 1762 asked for his meat tucked between two slices of bread so he could eat without leaving the table โ€” or putting down his cards. A snack so good they named it after the man who refused to stop for lunch.
Settle it: what's the best sandwich in Columbus, and where do we get it? Tag the spot ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐ŸŽ™๏ธ His Wings Interview โ€” Part 3

Meal-y-onaires, Part 3 is here. Gregory Satcher of His Wings tells me why he cut his menu from eight sauces down to four โ€” and how keeping it simple made every flavor better. Part 4 is coming Friday โ€” and you won't want to miss the rest.

Show His Wings some love, and tell me in the comments: which of the four core sauces is your go-to โ€” Honey BBQ, Garlic Maple, Lemon Pepper, or His Spice?

โ€” Philly

Not quite a day worth celebrating with festivities but someone loved them enough to give them their own day.

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ The Daily Bite: Today is National Deviled Egg Day! ๐Ÿฅš
Stuffed eggs go all the way back to ancient Rome โ€” folks have been filling boiled eggs with something tasty for about two thousand years. The word "deviled" only showed up in the 1700s, and back then it just meant spicy or zesty.
How do you take yours, Meal-y-onaires: classic with a dusting of paprika, or loaded up with bacon and jalapeรฑo? ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ The Daily Bite: Today is National Calzone Day! ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น
The calzone was born in Naples, and its name comes from the Italian word for "trouser leg" โ€” because it's folded up like one. Pizza you can carry. Genius is sometimes just good folding.
Pop quiz: calzone vs. stromboli โ€” do you actually know the difference? Be honest ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿฝ๏ธ The Daily Bite: It's the LAST day of National Pizza Month! ๐Ÿ•
The average American eats about 46 slices of pizza a year. Around here, we call that "a good start." Greek's Pizzeria just earned a 7.4 in our latest review โ€” the full video is coming soon, Meal-y-onaires.
Thin crust or thick crust? This is the hill. Defend yours ๐Ÿ‘‡
