Forget water cooler talk — perhaps this is what every office really needs.

So, this Starbucks "limited-edition" Mother’s Day gift card costs $200 but only offers $50 in store credit.
According to a Starbucks spokesperson that spoke to BuzzFeed News, "This gift is made with premium materials including the stainless steel card, a satin ceramic finish, and laser-etched floral details."
The company offered a $200 card with $50 on it around Christmas. Well, this is one way to tell Mom you love her.
The @USDAFoodSafety Twitter account has been storming up some pretty entertaining tweets lately, including one in honor of May featuring Justin Timberlake’s N*SYNC days.

Touted as "the ultimate game-of-chance-style snacking experience," Doritos Roulette cheese and hot chip snack is making its way to the U.S. Get them while they’re hot though — it's a limited time offer.
The limited offering comes with a social media campaign encouraging fans to work together to win prizes. "But true to the Roulette concept, Doritos said, three out of every four participants will earn a truly awesome prize, while one in four will receive something completely undesirable," reports FoodBev.com.
Who knew eating a bag of chips had to be this intense?
Craft beer concoctions may be innovative, but not all of them may exactly make you salivate, considering certain ingredients (i.e. Peeps, bull testicles, sheep poop, etc).
