October 24 is National Bologna Day!
October 24 is National Bologna Day!
Bologna, like hotdogs, is at times referred to as “Mystery Meat,” but it’s more mechanical meat than a mystery. If your bologna is made from “mechanically separated” chicken and pork, it probably has very little beef in it. Although many companies won’t reveal their preferred blend of spices, most of the ingredients in bologna are no secret. They’re listed on the package, free for all to read. As it turns out, most mass-produced varieties of bologna are a lot less gross than you may think—as long as you’re OK with corn syrup-flavored meat batter. Who’s hungry? 10/24/2023 23:00

Feeding the multitudes
Feeding the multitudes
Recent incidents within USD 298 schools sparked lively conversation on Facebook among parents on both sides of the issues. Several students become weary of the tone of these debates and have reported being “sick” of it. The adult conversation “embarrasses” them. They “worry” about their teachers. While the discussions are, at times, laced with emotion, the participants typically have some, but not all the information needed to form a fair and unbiased opinion. 10/03/2023 23:00
Family Hair Flair celebrates milestone
Family Hair Flair celebrates milestone
The year was 1988. Spiked hair, miniskirts, baggy pants and faded jeans were all the rage. Microsoft had just introduced MS-DOS 4.0. George Michael was at the top of the charts, followed closely by Michael Jackson who had just been named the King of Pop by Elizabeth Taylor. A Fish Called Wanda, Die Hard and Rain Man were all released in 1988. Most importantly, that’s when Rhonda Base opened Family Hair Flair in Tescott. 10/03/2023 23:00
