The scent of Burger King




Hold the onions: Burger King has launched a new men's spray fragrance, "Flame," which it describes as "the scent of seduction with a hint of flame-broiled meat."

Save yourself the $3.99 and just slap a Whopper under each arm.

Ooh, ooh, that smell: Philadelphia, the land of the cheesesteak sandwich, has passed the nation's toughest nutrition labeling law for restaurants, ordering that they display information on fat, calories and more.

Restaurants can exempt themselves from the new rules if they inform customers that menu items are for external use only.

Rock you like a thunder snow! Our cold and snowy weather is expanding our meteorologic vocabulary. Today's phrase: thunder snow, which, not surprisingly, is thunder followed by snow, a whole lot of snow.

The Buzz is currently auditioning musicians for Thundersnow! -- our new Icelandic heavy metal rock band. Members must provide their own instruments and fur-lined Spandex parkas. And bring a list of words that rhyme with "ice scraper."

-- Jon Bauer, Herald staff
