Fast Food Survey: Are you one of those people who digs through a fast-food bag WHILE you're at the window to make sure everything is correct? If not, maybe you SHOULD . . . especially if you're at Taco Bell.
A new analysis looked into more than 1,600 drive-thru visits across 10 major fast-food chains . . . and crunched the numbers on the places with the BEST and WORST odds of getting it right.
Overall, 11% of drive-thru orders come back wrong.
Taco Bell is the worst, botching 15% of orders. Wendy's and Dunkin' are the runners-up . . . both messing up 13% of the time. Burger King and Raising Cane's are next, with 12% incorrect.
Chick-fil-A and McDonald's are the best, "only" messing up 7% of orders. Carl's Jr. / Hardee's is next at 10% . . . followed by KFC and Arby's, which are both wrong 11% of the time.
And, the riskiest bet in fast-food is: Asking for no ice. It was the single most-cited failure in the entire study, with it being messed up 28% of the time.

Buzzfeed shared a list of the products, trends, and inventions that were hyped as the next big thing but then fizzled out fast.
Here are some of the most notorious:
1. Ephemeral tattoos . . . which are tattoos that are meant to fade after nine months or so. And I guess the trend faded, too.
2. Zima
3. The Segway
4. Crystal Pepsi
5. Curved TVs
6. Hoverboards. (I really thought we'd be riding on "Back to the Future" hoverboards by now.)

1. A new study of ancient coral from the Galápagos Islands found that the ocean temperature swings caused by El Niño are now stronger than at any point in the last 1,000 years. They found that modern temperature swings are about 34% stronger than pre-industrial levels. And the sharpest increase has taken place over the past few decades.
2. Researchers are testing a jet fuel made with coconut oil, and it's performing almost as well as kerosene. The fuel was produced using less energy and then blended with standard jet fuel. The team found the thermal efficiency from the coconut oil blend was comparable to regular jet fuel . . . and carbon dioxide emissions were close to the same as well.

News To Make You Feel Better: A 58-year-old man from Florida named Christopher Johnson is facing felony charges after he allegedly stole a "mortuary stretcher and cot cover" worth around $7,100 from a local funeral home.
That sounds strange, but that's his "thing." He was connected to a string of similar thefts "stretching" across four states. To bring him down, it took a multi-agency taskforce, spanning Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina.
One of those tools was Flock cameras. So as incredibly invasive as they are, they seem adept at helping to prevent local funeral homes from being robbed of their stretchers.
The investigation remains ongoing . . . because police believe Christopher may have stolen MORE mortuary stretchers from other places.
He's also been arrested for this exact thing before, two years ago. It's unclear why he steals stretchers . . . apparently, he just understands the re-sale market.
