21 Things You Didn't Know About NECCO Wafers
Everyone's least favorite Halloween candy has been making us miserable since 1847.
In 1847, Oliver Chase invented a machine to cut candy wafers, and the abomination called the "hub wafer" was born
People in 1847 thought this candy was DELICIOUS. They couldn't get enough of the chalky nastiness.

NECCO stands for New England Confectionary Company. It's the oldest candy company in the U.S.
Although the wafer was invented in 1847, the company wasn't called NECCO until 1901 when the wafer maker merged with 2 other candy companies.

How To Make Miniature Pumpkin Spice Jello Shots
Truth: They are actually persimmons that just look like mini pumpkins. But damn if they don't taste and look delightful.
Recipe by Emily Fleischaker
Makes 10
ACTIVE TIME: 40 minutes
TOTAL TIME: 4 hours, 40 minutes
(because you have to let the Jello gel)
INGREDIENTS
Pumpkin Spice Jello
10 ripe, bright orange persimmons
1/2 cup pumpkin spice simple syrup (see below for recipe)
1 packet unflavored Knox gelatin
1 cup vodka
1/2 cup ginger beer or ginger ale
1/8 tsp vanilla extract
a few drops of orange food coloring
Pumpkin Spice Simple Syrup
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
3 cinnamon sticks
4-5 whole allspice
2 pieces candied ginger, chopped
2 pieces whole clove
1 whole nutmeg, cut in half or quarters
PREPARATION
First make the Pumpkin Spice Simple Syrup: Combine 1/2 cup water with all spices in a saucepan. Heat to simmer then turn off heat and let sit while you prepare the persimmon cups, or overnight in the fridge if possible.
Slice tops off of the persimmons. Using a melon baller, scoop out the inside of the persimmon, taking care to create a shell of even thickness. Place in muffin tin.
Put simple syrup in small saucepan and sprinkle with gelatin. Allow gelatin to soak for about two minutes. Heat over very low heat, stirring occasionally, until gelatin is dissolved, about 2 minutes. Stir in vodka and vanilla and transfer to a container with a spout. Pour into persimmon cups. Refrigerate (also refrigerate the tops) until fully set, several hours or overnight. Serve with tops on.
First make the Pumpkin Spice Simple Syrup: Combine 1/2 cup water with all spices in a saucepan.
Heat to simmer. Then turn off heat and let sit as long as it takes you to prepare the persimmon cups.
If you have time, let it sit overnight in the fridge so that the flavor infuses even more, but this isn't necessary.

Front Flips Don't Happen Often Enough In Football
The most athletic thing you'll see all day.
We have no idea who this is or where it took place, but we can't get enough full front flips on football fields. YouTube commenters are having a hearty discussion over whether the flip was "real" or "staged" -- you be the judge, we think it's a legitimate hurdle, and what a landing!
McKayla is impressed.

Come Play Facebook's Most Dangerous Game
It's simple: 1) Open Facebook messages 2) Scroll all the way to the bottom 3) Post one of the first three messages you see. Either yours or others' — just blur the names where necessary. 2005 was a very, very different time.
Facebook's new messages are rolling out to everybody now. They're nice, for the most part. But one thing you'll notice right away is that it's very easy to scroll down to your oldest messages:
Oh hello, eight years ago!
Then you'll notice that some of the messages are bizarre, unlike you, and often absolutely mortifying. It was 2004, 5, or 6! We were younger! We didn't know how Facebook worked yet. Mainly we were — oh, you'll see — just so, so embarrassing.
Oh god.

How To Turn Cow Brains Into A Delicious Fried Snack
This video will either gross you our or make you hungry. Tough to know until you watch it. But after we ate raw brains , we had to judge them cooked.
Here is a video of how to make Deep-Fried Brains
Here it is, step by step. First, get some brains.
The best way to do this is contact a local butcher and ask them to special order them. As we discovered in our raw brain taste test, there are several animals with palatable brains including pigs, goats, lamb, and calves. The brains in this video are calf and were purchased from Pat LaFrieda.
At this point, if you are crazy like our editor Gavon, you could eat them raw.
But we are absolutely not going to recommend that.

Buzzword BS Detector
Watch three marketing drones get their heads shocked every time they utter hooey.
The synergistic modularity of this video is mission-critical; it's certainly not a new bizmeth. Honestly? I don't think it's customer-centric enough to go super-viral. But, at the end of the day, it really comes down to "eyeballs" to determine ROI.
(Like, does Adobe really expect us to believe that their marketing doofuses don't also fire off these phrases at meetings like their lives depended on it?)
The controller guy's snort at the end was a brilliant touch.
