Jason Wells+FollowSeafood shacks that became coastal legendsNothing beats the magic of a real-deal seafood shack—where lunch for fishermen turned into a must-visit experience for everyone. From Maine’s lobster rolls with a view of the Atlantic, to hushpuppies and shrimp on North Carolina’s breezy docks, these spots serve up more than just food—they’re a taste of local tradition and salty adventure. Each shack has its own story, whether it’s jazz and oysters in Chicago or sunset crab boils in Florida. Which of these legendary spots would you road trip for, or do you have a local favorite that deserves a shoutout? #Food #SeafoodShacks #CoastalEats50Share
Jason Wells+FollowAlcohol Brands Are Dropping Like FliesWhoa, the booze business is seriously drying up! Americans are drinking way less—only 54% say they drink now, down from 67% just two years ago. Even the younger crowd isn’t interested, and now big names like Stoli Vodka and Kentucky Owl bourbon are shutting down. Even Jim Beam is pausing production! If you’re a whiskey or vodka fan, you might score some deals, but it’s wild to see these iconic brands go under. End of an era? #Food #AlcoholTrends #Stoli439Share

Annette Jones+FollowAldi Employee Secrets You Need to Know!Ever wondered what really goes on behind the scenes at Aldi? Employees spill the tea: don’t bag your groceries until after you pay (it actually helps them out), swipe your card while they’re scanning for a speedier checkout, and yes, they’ll spot you a quarter for a cart if you’re short. Oh, and if you return an empty snack bag with the packaging, you might just get a refund AND a replacement. Who knew grocery shopping could be this sneaky? #Food #AldiSecrets #GroceryHacks00Share
Annette Jones+FollowTexas grocery line drama sparks unityA tense moment at a Texas Walmart turned into a powerful show of community when shoppers stood up to a man who cut the line and rammed a woman with his cart. Instead of letting it slide, people in line immediately called out the behavior, backing up the woman and making it clear that respect matters—even in a grocery store. The crowd’s quick action led to the man being kicked out and ticketed for assault. It’s a reminder that, sometimes, strangers have each other’s backs when it counts. Would you step in if you saw something like this? #Food #Texas #GroceryStore00Share
dianefrank+FollowRestaurant owner’s secret books land him in prisonA local restaurant owner’s double life just caught up with him—Remigijus Mikelenas, who ran a café and juice bar in Canton, is heading to federal prison for hiding over $3.5 million from the IRS. For years, he kept two sets of books: one for the taxman, one for himself. He even bragged about it to an undercover agent! Now, he’s facing a year behind bars and must pay back nearly $1 million. This case really makes you wonder: How common is this kind of tax dodging in our local businesses? What does it mean for honest owners? #Food #CantonMA #LocalNews20Share
Michael Alvarez+FollowNew pizza spot brings Brooklyn vibes to Mount PleasantCharleston’s brunch fans, get ready—Millers All Day’s owners are launching Jimmy Rosso, a pizza place in North Mount Pleasant this summer.

Expect thin, light, giant pies designed for sharing and coming back for more. The vibe? Nostalgic but not cheesy, polished but still super welcoming.

Jason Wells+FollowBuffalo’s beef on weck: A bite of living historyStep into Schwabl’s in West Seneca and you’re not just grabbing lunch—you’re joining a Buffalo tradition that’s been going strong since 1837. The beef on weck here isn’t about trends or reinvention; it’s about time-honored craft. Watch the carver slice your roast beef just how you like it, pile it onto a salty, caraway-studded kummelweck roll, and finish with a hit of horseradish. Every bite is a nod to generations past. Locals know: this isn’t just a sandwich, it’s a rite of passage. Who else has memories tied to this classic spot? #Food #BuffaloEats #BeefOnWeck00Share
