| Today's oxymoron: calorie counting at Culver's | |
| I like the fast food eatery's Wisconsin roots, but other than that, I'm not a big fan, mostly because there isn't a single item on the menu that works for me. Sure, a double cheeseburger sounds great, but most of my metabolism stayed in the '90s and I haven't had a double anything since. | |

| "Beer water" is not beer and that's OK | |
| Let's get a few things straight. MGD Light 64 and Bud Select 55 are not a beer-drinker's beer. In fact, they are not even beer, really. They are beer-flavored sparkling waters. They are a few calories away from being beer-scented seltzers. But they have their place. | |
