Cheese scandal rocks USDA

Image: Tom Mason What a silly headline, but it is true. The New York Times' Michael Moss recently exposed some rather backwards happenings in the US Department of Agriculture . An entity called Dairy Management Inc. has been created as a marketing program within the USDA with the goal to promote and sell cheese products.

Tori Spelling is Pizzalicious

The New York Post recently reported that Tori Spelling ordered Domino's pizza at a recent book release party at Highbar lounge.

Google Maps tells me that there is a Famous Original Ray's Pizza just one block away, even that would be better, right? Forget Tori Spelling, let's talk Donna Martin. There was a girl who knew what was up with pizza! In this clip from Beverly Hills 90210 Donna is more interested in pizza than having sex with her boyfriend. Remember?  HA!
