There’s a lot that goes on in the food world every week, and like an ice cream cone on a summer day, it can melt away before you have time to enjoy it all. So we’ve rounded up the week’s most eye-catching food stories so you can stay relevant *and* exceptionally handsome, so pull out a chair and grab a plate—you’re at the adult table now. Welcome to Leftovers.
Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady, two wax statues that have come to life, went on a vacation diet to stay fit and trim while in Costa Rica, because they were honestly so out of shape before. The diet includes green fruit roll-ups and raw lasagna and other things they foraged in their surroundings. Never trust people with a lot of money and time on their hands because they will either take up an insane diet or endorse Trump (or in this case, both?).
Victoria Beckham, star of Spice World, was revealed to be a picky eater by Wolfgang Puck—she eats spinach, and only spinach, and refuses to speak to anyone while at his L.A. restaurant. Can’t a girl eat a meal in peace? She’s not here to make friends, she’s here to eat some flavorless vegetables with a blank expression and decline Spice Girl reunion offers. But then again, this was in the Daily Mail, which picked it up from something called Heat magazine, so you can take it with a grain of salt—which is apparently how Beckham likes her spinach.

7/11, home of the Big Gulp and a Beyoncé song, debuted a wild cherry Slurpee donut this week—the result looked less like a donut more like a bachelorette party invitation that accidentally got fried and frosted. That said, would still try one.
A man on reddit made 50 different cheesecakes for his girlfriend’s birthday. It is also my birthday soon, so internet stranger, l would like to meet you in a public place with my parents' permission and consume a cheesecake for every year of my age (which is 26, but 70 based on liver quality).

Canada, a place I’ve never been to and the home of maple syrup, snow, and teenage dream, Justin Trudeau, is adding another credential to its national resume—weed-Nutella, called Chrontella. And it sounds great. Real great. I can’t feel my feet. Let’s Seamless, I am so hungry. I have never been this thin. Do you think I’m pretty? Oh my god, it’s the doorbell, I need to get it together. Hi, how’re you? Thank you so much for coming so soon. I tipped when I checked out online, I don’t want you to think I’m cheap, haha! Thank you so much, stay dry! Oh my god, I just told the delivery guy to stay dry and it’s not raining. Taco was worth it. I think if I were in the Hunger Games I would definitely die first because I hate running and would probably prefer to be taken out early because of it. Did the food come?
