The Savings Are There, But Will You?

McDonald's Reveals How Much You Would Save If You Buy Their Coffee

In further updates on this strategic rollout, McDonald's has revealed exactly how much money they're projected to save customers if they purchase their coffee.

For example, the fast food chain's $1 any size coffee will save customers anywhere from $84-$93 over four months. McDonald's is also lowering the price of their small specialty hot drinks to $2, which will save customers about $109-$140 over a period of four months.

Savings are calculated for someone buying coffee five days a week from January through April. The pricing is compared to that of competitors' regular coffee and popular small specialty hot beverages (lattes, mochas, and hot chocolates).

Did You Know - Eel Edition

What Are The Differences Between Freshwater And Seawater Eel?

There are two types of eel prepared in Japanese cuisine — unagi (freshwater eel) and anago (seawater eel). The former is what the majority of people would immediately associate with “eel” — it’s found in virtually every sushi establishment nationwide. But it’s not to be confused with its seawater counterpart; there are a number of differences.

Differences between the two species of eel center on both taste and texture. “Unagi is always richer and fattier than anago,” says Masashi Ito, chef and owner of NYC hot spot Sushi Zo. “Anago tends to be leaner but it’s very fluffy.” Chef Isao Yamada of the city’s acclaimed restaurant Brushstroke agrees. “Anago can be bland compared to rich unagi, but it has a delicate and light flavor,” he says.

Just Some Cooler Than Air Classics

6 Cars That Make Us Love Air-Cooled Engines

Be it a 12bhp flat-twin or a fire-breathing turbocharged monster, air-cooling definitely had its place in the automotive community

Porsche 911 993 GT2


Named after the racing series that these homologation specials were required for, the 993 GT2 was the last air-cooled 911 ever manufactured by Porsche. With widened wheel arches and a massive rear wing featuring those stunning integral air intakes, the first ever GT2 paved the way for the most extreme road-going cars within the 911 range.

Producing 438bhp and 432lb ft of torque from its air-cooled engine, the 993 quickly became known as a widowmaker due to being rear-wheel drive and having a low kerb weight of 1295kg. The 3.6-litre twin-turbocharged flat six was capable of propelling the GT2 from 0-60mph in just 3.9 seconds and topping out at 187mph – seriously impressive figures from a mid-90s car. Only 57 were ever built making for seven figure values in today’s Porsche-crazy market.
