You might have experienced this while on vacation. Those olives on the little terrace in Italy taste fantastic. You buy two jars to take home, but a few weeks later, they only taste “pretty good.” Is that a coincidence? Not at all. The effect that…
Did you know that, under certain conditions, the carbon footprint of four people in an SUV can be similar to that of a single person in an electric car? Or that a long-distance trip isn’t necessarily more problematic than several short trips within Europe? CO2…
When you think of “longevity,” do you think of cryochambers, blood tests, and high-tech devices? Social media often suggests as much, and it’s definitely not an unproblematic trend. However, the term itself refers to something much more fundamental: how we can live as long as possible while staying healthy, active, and content. A longevity lifestyle is designed to improve your “life-health-span” and is not reserved for the ultra-wealthy.

Th drink originated in the United States. In the 1920s, soda bars were all the rage, and soda jerks would mix drinks fresh with soda water, milk, ice cream, or egg, depending on the customer’s preference.
Today, cream soda is usually a sweet, carbonated lemonade with vanilla flavoring (though it doesn’t contain milk or cream). In the U.S., it’s often golden brown, but in Japan, there are also pink and green varieties flavored with cotton candy or melon.
In German-speaking countries, cream soda is not a standard supermarket beverage. Instead, it is often only available as an imported product in U.S./U.K. or Asian sections. (Note: Mass-produced brands like A&W (U.S.) and Barr (U.K.) typically contain artificial flavors, colors, and corn syrup.
You’ll have the smallest ecological footprint if you use cream soda syrups that you carbonate or mix with sparkling water yourself.)
