If The Sun Were To Stop Shining

The sun is roughly 149.6 million kilometers away from Earth. If the sun were to turn off right now, people on Earth wouldn’t know about it for 8 minutes and 19 seconds. Those 8 minutes, as the ripples of lastlight edged towards us, would be a very sad few moments for us, despite us not knowing about the impending doom.

So Sad.

Did y’all know that 1 cup of whole milk equals almost the same amount of saturated fat as a 4 slices of bacon?!

Or 2 tablespoons of half and half equals about 2 slices of bacon?

I use soy milk to feed my coffee addiction. 

This is quite amazing, but not very surprising.
