For pretty much an entire generation, you could walk into a teenager's room and there'd be a 50-50 chance you'd see a Jessica Alba poster somewhere on his or her wall. Sitting pretty at the top of most lists of desirable celebrity women for pretty much a decade, you probably…

Although sometimes it feels like it's a plague on mankind that will eventually turn out to be the downfall of society, the internet has completely changed the way we interact with each other, acquire products or services, and complain about said products or services when things inevitably go awry. Head…

Back at the outset of summer, the food world lost one of its biggest and brightest lights in tragic circumstances. Anthony Bourdain, television personality and host of the CNN show Parts Unknown, was found dead in a hotel room in France, during a shoot for an episode of his show.…

I've never had a retail job, but based on what I know about working directly with people in various movies, TV shows and videos from Food Envy articles, it's something I really wouldn't like to do too often. Long hours, minimum wage, lots of ignorant or belligerent people to smile…

Pranking a restaurant is one of those fun things you can do that will pretty much never result in something good. No matter how good your voice impressions are at the drive-thru, no matter how large and energetic the fish you leave in the urinal may be; the best you'll…

I don't know about you, but I can always tell when someone's a new mom. The seemingly otherworldly influx of wisdom of knowledge, the tired rings around their eyes, the baby in their arms... it's not always easy to tell, but I'm getting better at it. Soon, I'll be a…

On the surface of it, eating healthily seems pretty simple, right? Cut out the junk food, gorge on greens and other veggies, drink plenty of water; but anybody who's tried to change their diet in order to lose weight can tell you that it's a lot easier said than done…
