A dinosaurs last meal: A 110 million-year-old dinosaurs stomach contents are revealed

Read full article: A dinosaurs last meal: A 110 million-year-old dinosaurs stomach contents are revealed

The fossil was unveiled after museum technician Mark Mitchell dedicated six years to painstakingly revealing the dinosaur's preserved skin and bones from the marine rock in which it was encased. But it lived off of plants and favored ferns, based on the contents of its stomach. The researchers compared the contents of its stomach with fossil leaf studies from the same time period and region. The preservation of the plant material in its stomach suggested that the dinosaur died and was buried soon after eating. Gizzard stones, much like those swallowed by birds to help with digestion, were also found in the dinosaur's stomach.

Someone put kiwi on a pizza and we can’t unsee it

Read full article: Someone put kiwi on a pizza and we can’t unsee it

There are things that are sacred in this world, and one of those things is pizza -- and the toppings we choose to put on that pizza. Kiwi may be sweet, but when was the last time you heard of kiwi getting incorporated into a savory dish, let alone being used as topping on an innocent pizza that didn’t ask for any of this nonsense? The photo of the kiwi pizza was tweeted out in January and it went viral immediately -- with most people equally (or if not more) grossed out by this flavor combination. People compared it to a petri dish, called it a “travesty” and blamed pineapple on pizza for this cooking crime. Let’s just hope this was a one-off experimentation and kiwi pizza doesn’t start showing up at our favorite pizza chains.
