They’re consistent, convenient, and tasty. And at a time of food recalls and outbreaks, they’re one of the riskiest things you could possibly eat.

I interviewed Mike Tyson at length some years ago but decided not to run it. I asked him directly about Robin Given and Desiree Washington and he denied the allegations. Between listening to him and reading his book, I didn’t believe him at all

I hope that white boy kicks Mike Tyson’s ass. He’s an abuser and a rapist and the whole community has basically given him a pass like we do most famous Black men.
