If you are looking for a protein-packed snack, pick something with avocado on it. Avocados have more protein than any other fruit.

If you plan on buying pumpkins to carve into jack o’lanterns or to decorate your porch, you aren’t alone. Of all the pumpkins sold each year, only 1% is used as food. The other 99% are solely for decoration.

Most people know Wendy's was named after founder Dave Thomas' daughter - but Wendy wasn't her actual name. It was actually Melinda Lou - Wendy was her nickname
