Added bonus: you don't have Cheetos dust staining your hands for the next week. There's only one, very unfortunate caveat. You have to go to Canada to fulfill your mouthwatering Cheetos and Taco Bell fantasy. We're guessing that voyage is not too far for some.

We Just Super Liked the Tinder CEO's Bachelor Pad
The cofounder and CEO of Tinder, Sean Rad, just listed his two-bedroom, three-bathroom Los Angeles condo, and to state the obvious pun: we're swiping right - we might even super like it. The 2,298-square-foot apartment is more sophisticated than the average bachelor pad. We're loving the emphasis on earth tones, clean lines, and modern elegance. The open-plan living room and stunning windows breathe freshness into the apartment. We'd venture a guess that Sean's favorite room is the bathroom, since his massive bathtub has a longing for a spa day - or romantic soak for two.
The buyer will be conveniently located to several hot neighborhoods of Tinder users, as the apartment sits at the intersection of Westwood, Holmby Hills, Century City, and Beverly Hills. You can snag Rad's condo for $1.795 million - the top-floor views of Los Angeles, walk-in closet, and abundance of natural light are well worth the steep price tag. As for Rad's new abode, he's said to have upgraded to a $7.5 million penthouse down the road in the same celeb-filled building where Yolanda Foster just moved.

What Happens When the Most Iconic Bagel Flavor Becomes a Doughnut
When my editor asked me to head to Manhattan's West Village to try The Doughnut Projects' everything doughnut, the nicest comment I could come up with was "that sounds questionable," but today, I'm prepared to eat my words. Combining the concept of a salty, seedy everything bagel and a sweet frosted doughnut may very well be a ploy to create the next attention-getting viral pastry, but it also results in a doughnut that is just plain good. Sesame seeds, pepitas, and poppyseeds add crunch and nuttiness, while a just-right amount of salt balances but doesn't overpower the sweet icing on the yeasted doughnut. I was thankful that I couldn't detect any dehydrated garlic or onion (both traditional everything bagel components), though other reports claim garlic as one of the toppings. (Some might quibble that this omission diminishes the everything-bagel-ness of the doughnut, but I think The Doughnut Project had the right idea here.) Overall, it's a pastry that is both creative in concept and actually worth eating.
TL;DR: The Doughnut Project's everything doughnut is well worth a trip to Manhattan's West Village. Also consider trying the doughnut shop's peanut butter and jelly, grapefruit rosemary, and chocolate pretzel doughnuts while you're there.

The Most Expensive-Looking Ikea Hack We've Ever Seen
Custom built-ins are one of those design elements that can step your home up from nice to magazine worthy. Unfortunately, their high style is usually matched by their price.
Given this reality, you can imagine our excitement when we stumbled upon this custom built-ins hack from The Makerista. With tasteful crown molding and a sliding library ladder, this sleek built-in has all the tell-tale signs of a big-budget project, except for the steep price tag; it's made up of three Ikea Billy bookcases ranging from $40 to $60 a piece, some add-on trim, and the handiwork of a carpenter! How mind-blowingly resourceful is that?

Read This Before You Order Starbucks's Limited-Edition Butterscotch Latte
Starbucks and Harry Potter fans, hold onto your sorting hats. If you're dying to try butterbeer but are just not going to take the time to make it at home, you're going to want to try Starbucks's newest drink, the Smoked Butterscotch Latte. We were skeptical when we heard claims that the drink resembled butterbeer, so we turned to our resident Harry Potter World experts, and guess what they said? "Tastes like straight-up butterbeer."
The main difference, of course, is the coffee taste - real butterbeer is free of coffee, so if you want the closest thing to the Harry Potter drink without having to travel, order the latte with no espresso so it becomes steamed milk, smoked butterscotch syrup, and a sprinkle of smoky butterscotch sugar on top.
That's not to say the drink was well liked by everyone. Other co-workers' comments were "tastes like sweet milk," "doesn't taste like butterscotch," and "not sweet - too smoked." Obviously everyone's palates (and coffee preferences) are different, so there's no guaranteeing you'll like it or not, but the limited-edition drink is worth a try if you're a butterscotch (or butterbeer) fan.
This Mason-Jar Hack Will Get You Barista-Worthy Coffee at Home
I'll take any time- and money-saving way to get even better coffee in the morning, so I knew I wanted to try this DIY frothy milk from Spoon University. The trick to getting barista-worthy foam on top of your brewed coffee at home? A mason jar and a microwave.
It took a few tries to get this hack right, but here's what you need to know to do this at home:
First, fill a mason jar about halfway with milk (I used reduced fat). Meanwhile, get your coffee brewing.
Next, put the lid on the jar and shake vigorously for 10-15 seconds, until the milk becomes bubbly and somewhat frothy. Then, (without the lid!), microwave on high for 45 seconds to 1 minute, depending on how hot you want it. This will warm the milk through and create a top layer of foam that you can scoop out and put on top of your cup of coffee.
While this won't be the most perfect foam, it's plenty good enough to get you through busy mornings when you want to upgrade your caffeine routine (more time for sleeping, amirite?).

How to Live Stylishly in a Studio Apartment
If there's one thing that gets a bad rap in design, it's the studio apartment. Often a rental with very little in the way of space, studios must do it all without room to spare. While it is a tall order, we found a place that does it just right. Tucked away in the Upper West Side of Manhattan, this studio is just as relaxing as it is energizing. Keeping rental restrictions and their client Jamie's laid-back style in mind, designers Lindsay Boswell and Ali Levin of LABLstudio created an urban oasis filled with ideas that anyone would sacrifice square footage for.
Mixing earthy and glamorous touches, this "hidden gem" evolved into a room suitable for sleeping, living, and entertaining. Getting creative with the space, Boswell and Levin incorporated unexpected pops of color using removable wallpaper and made sure every piece served a variety of purposes. The result proves that size isn't everything! Keep reading for a full studio tour and Lindsay and Ali's favorite tricks for decking out a small space.
The Prettiest Way to Make Over a Rental Kitchen
The following post was originally featured on Thou Swell and written by blogger Kevin O'Gara, who is part of POPSUGAR Select Home.
My family spends a lot of time in the kitchen - we love to cook (and eat), and my sisters and I help make dinner and clean up each night. It's an important space for our family to be together in. One of my favorite activities is to play the "what would I change" game in a room - although sometimes far-fetched, it's interesting to think of the simple solutions that could improve a room's light, space, and efficiency. Of course, the kitchen often becomes subject to these daydreaming sessions, as it's a room that's central to the house and frequently used. Besides, I think kitchens are the most easily dated rooms, because they are expensive to upgrade. One of our old kitchens hadn't been updated since the '50s, so the blue linoleum floors and counter-top oven were all still in place. Compared to that, our current one really wasn't a bad starting place. Everything was painted white, which made for a great blank slate for our rental kitchen makeover!

You Will Never Look at Oreos the Same Way Again After Reading These Facts
You may love Oreos, whether dunked in milk, crumbled over ice cream, or crumbled into pie crust. Despite the vast ways you've learned to enjoy the cream-filled sandwich cookie, have you ever stopped to think about its rich history? These fun facts will allow you to see the cookies in a whole new light.
- The origin of the name "Oreo" is unknown. Although, one Oreo exec says the name mimics the two O-shaped cookies that make the sandwich. Others claim the "re" comes from the "cream."
- Oreos are a total ripoff of Hydrox, the original cream-filled chocolate cookie, which came out in 1908. Oreos weren't released until 1912.
- Double-Stuf are actually 1.86 times more stuffed than regular Oreos. Do you feel slightly cheated?
- To date, Oreo has 41.8 million Facebooks followers. In comparison, The New York Times has 10.7 million.
- Oreo's first crazy flavor was Birthday Cake, released in 2012 for its centennial celebration. Since then, the company releases new flavors quarterly, but our favorites will always be cotton candy and marshmallow crispy.
What Are Pulses? The Food EVERYONE Will Talk About in 2016
The UN announced 2016 to be the Year of Pulses (FYI, they declared 2013 to be the Year of Quinoa), but what the heck are pulses? Yes, the word is actually defined in the dictionary, but to put it in the simplest terms, pulses are dry, edible seeds of legumes. While all pulses are technically legumes, the differentiating factor is that not all legumes are harvested to be dried. Fresh legumes like green peas, green beans, and soybeans or legumes harvested for oil extraction (like soybean) aren't classified as pulses. Confused yet? Don't worry! We have a list of the most commonly found pulses from the American Pulse Association. And when in doubt, remember if it's a dry, edible pea, bean, lentil, or chickpea, then it's probably a pulse.
Here's what that list includes:
Dry Peas
Split and/or whole green
Split and/or whole yellow
Beans
Adzuki
Black
Black-eyed pea
Dark red kidney
Light red kidney
Great Northern
Navy
Pinto
Fava
Small red
Mung
Baby lima
Large lima
Cranberry
Pink
Lentils
Regular
Red chief
Pardina
Richlea
Black
Chickpeas
Kabuli

Finally! Perfect Wine Pairings For Girl Scout Cookies
The only thing that could possibly make Girl Scout Cookies even better is a good wine pairing. And since it's officially Girl Scout Cookie season (insert praise hands emoji here), the experts at Club W have shared their suggestions. Whether you're planning a girls' night in or want to upgrade your solo movie night, you'll want to know which bottle(s) to pick up based on your cookie preference. Get ready for a match made in heaven.
Lemonades: Sauvignon Blanc
Citrusy iced lemonade cookies pair well with the tangy brightness of Sauvignon Blanc. A chilled bottle of white wine with lemony cookies on a warm day? Yes, please.
Shortbread: Grenache Blanc
What the heck is Grenache Blanc? It's a full-bodied white wine that's "about as universally delicious as a white wine can be," Club W explains. The subtle notes of vanilla complement the buttery cookie.
Samoas: Tuscan Red Blends
In other words, coconut-caramel-dark-chocolate cookies go well with red blends from Tuscany, Italy, or red blends with grapes like Syrah.
Thin Mints: Red Blends
Red wine and chocolate go together like macaroni and cheese. What complements irresistible Thin Mints best are deep, smooth red wines like berry-driven Noirs.
Tagalongs: Cabernet
Tagalongs are rich, chocolate-peanut-butter bliss, and they need a bold wine to match, and Cabernet can stand up to the layers of flavor in the soft and crunchy cookie.

The Best Way to Store Greens
If your greens are wilting within a few days of bringing them home from the store, you can prevent it with this quick storage tip. First, wash the greens thoroughly in cold water. Submerge them in bowl full of cold water at least three times before spinning them dry. Then line a resealable bag or tupperware container with a paper towel. Transfer the greens, then top them with another paper towel. Seal the bag (some air inside is OK) or pop the lid on the tupperware and store in the fridge. That's it! This technique should keep them crisp and fresh for well over a week.
This Puppy With Braces Proves How Adorable an Awkward Phase Can Be
Dogs are always making us laugh, be it through excessive birthday excitement or their owners dressing them up in costumes.

Pittsburgh Police Honor Fallen K-9 Unit After He's Stabbed and Killed
In a brutal fight between police and two civilians last week in Pennsylvania, K-9 unit Aren was stabbed by a suspect and eventually died from his injuries. He was carried out of the vet clinic where he died, covered in the American flag, and placed into his partner's cruiser for his final ride.
Aren was a 5-year-old German Shepherd originally from the Czech Republic that came to Pittsburgh when he was about a year old. He was a four-year veteran of the police force and served with Port Authority Police Officer Brian O'Malley.
"It's a horrible thing. He's a member of that officer's family. He's a member of the law enforcement family," said Chief Matt Porter with Port Authority Police to CBS Pittsburgh.
Hundreds of law enforcement officers gathered to memorialize Aren in Pittsburgh. During the service Porter said, "Aren was fluent in three languages - the first being German, the second being English, and the third being 'Brian,'" speaking of Aren's partner.
Watch the video above to see Aren being honored by his fellow officers, and have a tissue handy - it's a very touching moment.

This Cop Was Just Doing His Job When He Found His Forever Friend
When Florida police officer Marcus Montgomery posted this picture on Imgur, we think his TL;DR (too long, didn't read) was spot on. He wrote, "humans suck. Leave pups on back porch in cold. He's MINE."
Officer Montgomery was called in to Panhandle Animal Welfare Society to handle some threats the shelter was getting. As he was leaving, however, he stumbled upon what would become his new forever friend. One of the shelter employees told him a litter of puppies had been dropped off the night before and left outside in near-freezing temperatures. Officer Montgomery instantly fell in love with one of them and decided his 4-year-old Pit Bull, Vader, needed a brother.
He brought Kylo Ren home as a gift to his girlfriend, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Funfetti Fanatics, Prepare to Obsess Over These Limited-Edition Airheads
If you love Funfetti-flavored everything, you're going to want to try this brand-new, limited-edition flavor of Airheads: birthday cake. Filled with colorful speckles of confetti, the vanilla flavor is reminiscent of Funfetti icing - a taste that hardcore birthday-cake fans will enjoy, but that others might not prefer. They're super sweet, and the somewhat grainy texture isn't quite the same as smooth icing, but if Funfetti is your choice flavor of sweets, you definitely won't be disappointed. They might be worth a try for the burst of nostalgia alone - they're basically what childhood dreams are made of. Will you be trying these?
A Hands-Free Hack For Peeling Hard-Boiled Eggs
As easy as hard-boiled eggs are to make, they're a pain to peel, that is until I learned this hack. It involves shaking the egg in a glass cup with a bit of water until the eggshell breaks into a million shards. It seemed completely unfathomable until I tested it out myself and discovered it's completely legitimate! Here's how it's done.
Fill a glass cup or a mason jar with about 1/2 inch of water. Then add the egg. If you have a mason jar, screw on the lid.
Turn the cup to the side, pressing one hand over the open end so the water doesn't pour out.
Start shaking! Don't let the egg roll around the glass, but rather make sure it's hitting the sides of the glass. You'll begin to see the eggshell cracking . . .
Keep shaking until the shell slips off! Rinse the egg under cold water to remove any small shell shards, then enjoy.
