Better eating through science: Wal-Mart and Hostess are collaborating on a new product: Frozen Deep-Fried Twinkies, inspired by the artery-clogging state fair treat (Page A7).

Blue-medal munchies: Exhibitors at the inaugural Oregon Cannabis Grower’s Fair are gunning for the right to showcase their products at the Oregon State Fair, alongside livestock, food preservation and 4-H (Page A4).

Top heavy: If American swimmer Michael Phelps poses for the iconic Mark Spitz photo, he might topple over. He’s captured 13 golds and 26 medals overall going into Friday night’s competition at the Rio Games (Page C7).
