The clock is ticking -- or maybe it's chicking. McDonald's Snack Wraps, a chicken-tortilla entree that's been missing from US locations of the Golden Arches, returns to the huge fast-food chain on Thursday at 10:30 a.m. local time (if you want to be the first in line). A recent analysis by VegasInsider.com found that the Snack Wrap was by far the most searched for discontinued McDonald's menu item of 2025. On Tuesday, I tried out the very similar chicken snack wraps at Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen

Foundation returns to Apple TV+ this week, jumping ahead 152 years and plunging its characters into an end-of-the-world scenario. One of the key figures is Hari Seldon, played by Jared Harris. He created the Foundation in season one as a way to preserve civilization after his “psychohistory” predicted a coming age of darkness. In the wild drama that’s followed, we’ve seen Hari die and then resurrect as separate digital clones, one of which ended up getting a new human body in season two. It’s c
