Pets & Animals > Dog Care & Health Product reviews: Bonio dog treats: 1 of 3
I've just eaten a Bonio! For the sake of research and to bring an honest and thorough opinion to Helium, I've just eaten a Bonio! How did it taste? Not bad, it was no Oreo cookie but then I'm not a dog, for all I know the Bonio could be the Orio of the canine world. My three Black Labradors certainly seem to think so, I feed... More..
Food & Drink > Soft Drinks Coke Zero... Why?: 1 of 3
Or more to the point - Coke Zero... Why not? I believe Coke Zero is aimed squarely at Men, as made all the more obvious by the adverts featuring men asking why everything has to have a downside?. I know that it is perfectly legal for us chaps to consume diet Pepsi or diet Coke but I always found it a little embarrassing aski... More..
Style & Beauty > Personal Grooming Grooming tips for men: 3 of 8
Before any man embarks on grooming he must make sure he has a basic level of hygene. You can use any manner of potions, liquids or scrubs you like but if there is an underlying hygene issue it will all be for nothing. 1. With that in mind my first grooming tip is regular washing/showing/bathing. I work in a hot sweaty enviro... More..

"I'm not putting that in my mouth!" The Evolution of Food - As a Chef I am always keen to try out new and exciting recipes and ideas, always safe in the knowledge that the ingredients I use are safe and edible.

Business > Sales Top tips on maximizing the profits from your restaurant's menu: 8 of 20
Chefs cost a lot of money to hire, there is no getting away from the fact. The studying at college for years does not come cheap, nor should it. When a chef decides on food service as a career it is a life choice, and as such it is only fair they are rewarded with a decent wage for their hard studious work in gaining the tal... More..
Hobbies & Games > Video Game Tips & Tricks Best video games for teen boys: 5 of 12
My vote for a good and entertaining video game to keep a teen boy occupied is Fifa Street. Most lads like soccer, and even those that are less than impressed with the polished likes of Pro Evo or Fifa 08 will enjoy the quirky "street" feel of Fifa street. Gone are the polished corporate stadiums of lesser games, in Fifa Stre... More..

Arts & Humanities > Literature (Other) Readers share their favorite novels: 27 of 55
My favorite novel of the moment has to be "A Dog Named Christmas", by Greg Kincaid. It's fair to say that life on the farm suited George well; he enjoyed the honest but hard way of life a great deal. He enjoyed still further the help and support of his beloved wife Mary-ann and the youngest of his five children, Todd. Todd w... More..
Food & Drink > Drinks (Other) Classic Christmas drinks: 4 of 8
For many people, Christmas is an excuse to indulge in rich food and drink that would not be consumed at any other times. And with this in mind I have gathered up three of the best recipes I could find for Christmassy drinks. If you decide to make any of them, I hope you enjoy them as much as I always do. If you decide not to... More..
Food & Drink > Diet, Health & Organic Foods Food reviews: Doritos 100 Calorie Snack Packs: 2 of 4
Now there's a fine idea from those good people at Doritos - produce a bag of tortilla chips containing just 100 calories, that way people on diets can still enjoy a snack without feeling obliged to finish a whole big bag! Why hasn't anyone done this before? Sure there are mini bags of potato chips available, but Doritos have... More..
