Everyone has at least ONE beverage that's dominating their grocery carts and trunk space . . . or front porches, if you're willing to pay a little more to have it delivered to your door.     Instacart just released some data on the most popular sodas (or "pops") on their service, and they also broke it down by state.  One kind DOMINATED most of the country, and it isn't Coke or Pepsi.     Dr. Pepper is huge, especially across the South and West. It's #1 in 17 states, including:  Alaska . . .

If you've ever heard that the youngest child gets away with everything, therapists say it might be time to retire that old family myth.     Experts say that many youngest siblings don't feel spoiled at all.

Some youngest siblings feel they have to be the fun, easygoing peacemaker, even when they're dealing with their own stuff. Others develop people-pleasing habits because they've spent years focusing [...]

It's National Drive-Thru Day . . . and while many people wouldn't say fast food is CHEAP anymore, a lot of us do appreciate the CONVENIENCE, assuming the line keeps moving.     A recent report analyzed the average drive-thru wait times at fast-food joints . . . and there's something to the saying, "good things come to those who wait."     As for the FASTEST, Taco Bell ranked #1, by total time, for the FIFTH consecutive year . . . with an average total time of 256 seconds, or just over four minutes.  (They're probably helped by a tight [...]
