Star Trek's Most Resiliant Redshirt: James Doohan

Paramount Pictures


Any fan of the original Star Trek knows that the minute a crewman wearing a red shirt is tasked with accompanying an away team to the surface of planet, somebody is about to die.  It was so common for "redshirts" to buy the farm it has since becoming a running joke.

Kraft Macaroni and Cheese



Whether you eat it plain, with character pasta or with some sweet, juicy bits of hot dog, I'm willing to bet that if you are reading this post you have eaten a fair bit of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese.   This cheap meal has fed millions of economically conscientious (read poor) college students.  I have eaten more than my fair share of the neon orange pasta dish in my lifetime.  Truly we owe a debt that cannot be repaid to the man who brought this dish over to America.  Turns out every Louisianan has this man to thank for their being citizens of the United States as well.
