This is an amazing chart composed of how to mix drinks. It appeals both to my love of organized charts and alcohol.

Thanks for nothing Kraft.
Why do you have to go and piss off the only nation that still talks to us when Republicans are in charge?
Having toured a Cadbury plant in Tasmania, I gotta say that they employ good people who make good stuff. Don’t screw it up!
Cultural Passings
A few deaths lately related to popular culture. First off, we lost Jan Gabriel last week. You might not know the name, but you certainly have heard his shouts of “Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!” if you have ever heard a small track racing commercial back in the MidWest…and Southwest apparently. More on his passing here
In quick food news, we also recently lost Donald Goerke, the creator of SpaghettiOs, which used to be a big favorite of mine back in the day. His obit can be found here.
And just today, I read of the passing of Glen Bell, the founder of Taco Bell. Granted, besides the annual 7 layer burrito, I avoid the place at nearly all costs, but you cannot deny The Hell. I mean, Demolition Man just wouldn’t be the same without it. More on Mr. Bell here.

Rain may put pumpkin pie in peril, Nestle says – Yahoo! Finance
I forgot about this when mentioning the Eggo shortage, but apparently we might also have a pumpkin pie shortage as well. Seriously, why don’t we ever have Brussels sprout shortages?
