I Found A Time Capsule Pizza Hut In North Carolina And It Hit Me Right In The Feels

You guys are not going to believe this but I stumbled upon a Pizza Hut in North Carolina that is literally a time capsule. Walking in there felt like stepping right back into my childhood. They still have those classic red cups for drinks. The light fixtures are just like I remember. There's even a real jukebox in the corner. And get this they still have the old school tablecloths. #PizzaHut #Nostalgia #RetroVibes #Food #PizzaLovers #ChildhoodMemories #NorthCarolina #Throwback

North Carolina’s pot pie hits and misses

Pot pie cravings in North Carolina can lead to either pure comfort or serious disappointment. Some local favorites, like Angie’s in Garner and Johnson’s Drive-In in Siler City, serve up pot pies that taste just like grandma’s—flaky crusts, real chicken, and rich, homemade gravy. But not every spot gets it right. Chain restaurants and some diners serve up bland, factory-made versions that miss the mark on flavor and texture. If you’re searching for that perfect bite of nostalgia, it pays to know where to go. Which NC spot serves your favorite pot pie, and which ones have let you down? #Food #NorthCarolina #PotPie

Solar funding cut could hit NC families hard

Losing over $156 million in solar grants means thousands of North Carolina families may face higher energy bills and fewer job opportunities. The Solar for All program was helping low-income households install solar panels, making them less dependent on the grid—especially important after storms like Hurricane Helene left many without power for weeks. Now, with the EPA moving to cut these funds, local leaders and advocates warn this could set back clean energy progress and hurt those who need it most. How do you think this decision will impact our communities? #Business #Industry #NorthCarolina

NC schools face mental health crisis after grant cuts

North Carolina schools are scrambling as crucial mental health funding is suddenly cut, leaving thousands of students without needed support. Programs that had shown real results—like a 50% drop in suicide risk and shorter wait times for help—are now on the chopping block. With only one social worker for every 995 students (when the recommended is 1:250), this loss hits hard. The confusion over why some grants were canceled, and not others, is fueling frustration among educators and parents. How do you think schools should fill this gap, and what’s at stake for our kids if they can’t? #Education #MentalHealthMatters #NorthCarolina

You won’t believe this Haywood County haul

A late-‘90s Honda Accord loaded with what looked like an entire household—boxes, furniture, bags—was spotted inching down a North Carolina road, and the internet can’t stop talking about it. Folks are amazed the car didn’t collapse under the weight, and honestly, it’s wild to see this kind of DIY moving job here, not just in viral videos from overseas. It’s a real-life example of necessity meeting creativity, but it also raises big questions about safety and local laws. Would you ever try something like this, or is this a line you’d never cross? #Cars #HaywoodCounty #NorthCarolina

Megalodon tooth found off NC coast!

A local diver just pulled a nearly 6-inch Megalodon tooth from the ocean floor, 35 miles off Wilmington! Imagine finding a piece of prehistoric history that’s millions of years old, right in our backyard. Christian Corbitt spent two days and nights anchored offshore, making deep, risky dives with special gear to bring up 33 fossil shark teeth—including the legendary Megalodon. He even found ancient whale bones and other mysterious relics. It’s wild to think what’s still hidden beneath those waves. Would you ever go on a fossil dive like this? #Science #NorthCarolina #Megalodon

Flesh-eating bacteria on the rise in NC waters

A simple cut can now lead to serious trouble along North Carolina’s coast, as cases of flesh-eating Vibrio bacteria are climbing fast this summer. With sea temperatures running hotter than usual and heavy rains washing nutrients into the water, experts say Vibrio is showing up in every coastal sample—something unheard of just 20 years ago. Local hospitals are treating more infections, and health officials are urging everyone to be extra cautious, especially if you have open wounds. Have you changed your beach habits because of these warnings? #Health #BodyHealth #NorthCarolina
