Look Out for “Thaw and Eat” Foods, No Microwave Necessary
Listen now
Description
There’s a new food category coming to your grocery stores… “thaw and eat” foods.  The makers of Uncrustables and Hot Pockets are both offering products that can be ready to eat in a couple of hours with no microwave required.  Think turkey and cheese or ham and cheese sandwiches.  These are being targeted to adults who want grabbable, no-mess bites.  Jennifer Kingson, chief correspondent at Axios joins us for what to know as food companies are throwing more resources at launching this new frozen category.   Next, the Good Morning America cheating scandal is proving that people still love an old-fashioned tabloid drama.  While other scandals have been met with lots of negative emotion, there are some in the public that seem to be rooting for anchors Amy Robach and T.J. Holmes.  They are both temporarily sidelined for now, but ratings have been up since the scandal surfaced.  Aja Romano, culture reporter at Vox, joins us for what to know.   Finally, the data shows that married couples hold four times as much wealth as unmarried couples who live together.  The leading thought as to why, is because they pool their resources together.  Other research is now showing that couples who do combine finances are also happier.  Julia Carpenter, personal finance reporter at the WSJ, joins us for what joining finances does in a relationship.
