A short list of confusingly strong opinions on energy drinks 5. White Monster (Monster Ultra Zero) White Monster is the old reliable; a boldly flickering halogen bulb amidst the encroaching shroud of darkness and uncertainty of a post-truth era. When I...
In a few short weeks, most of us students will be done school until September. It's finally time to start thinking about summer and the possibilities of warm weather. Most of all, it is time to undo the damage of months of grabbing whatever terrible fast food we can...
DISTRICT CAFÉ AND BAKERY Situated in a corner unit at 10011 109 St., District Café and Bakery is a brisk 15-minute walk from campus, and it sure is worth it. In fact, you’re better off walking, because the parking situation is a little difficult — as all students...

CHOCORRANT PÂTISSERIE AND CAFÉ Situated at 10328 124 St. — in the middle of the same block of 124 St. as Prairie Noodle Shop, Remedy Café, and Urbano Pizza Co. — Chocorrant finds itself keeping very good culinary company, but this little pâtisserie and café is also...
The removal of what we consider to be toxins from our bodies has been a collective habit for thousands of years. Some historic “detox” practices include bloodletting, enemas, sweat lodges, fasting, and drinking detoxification teas. These practices...
From the moment the legalization of cannabis was announced, people had questions: Will it be more expensive than on the black market? Can I have it delivered to my house? Will the nation’s children be irreversibly corrupted by the beguiling power of the...
