Europe trips

United and Delta will offer seasonal daily service to Iceland and Greece this summer.

Taco Bell

Taco Bell said that more than 8 billion sauce packets are used every year in the United States, a massive number that is potentially environmentally damaging.

The restaurant chain will launch a recycling pilot program later this year and says participation will be simple and involve free shipping.

Experts predicts that as BBQs and cookouts return this summer, the supply of port products could be further stressed.
