Celebrity chef Guy Fieri has a lot of delicious meals coming to him now that he's landed a three-year extension with the Food Network. Best known for his hit show Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, Fieri will continue to develop and produce his own content, which is growing in popularity on the Discovery+ app.
Fieri was cooking up his own cheesy favorite on Cheddar this Thursday to celebrate National Grilled Cheese Month. His spin on grilled cheese sandwich featured a savory, five-cheese macaroni and Italian sausage between two slices of King’s Hawaiian bread.
Earlier this year, the restaurateur also inked a deal with the bakery company King’s Hawaiian that will feature the chef in a digital content series and several advertisements.
"I partnered up with these guys last year, and we’ve been having a blast," he said. "We’ve taken some of the famous iconic sandwiches from around the world, and they’ve let me loose."
Also, If you've ever wondered if Fieri’s experiences on his hit show are real, according to him, they are. And, while cameras often capture the host chowing down and enjoying those meals from his various road trips, he said that it hadn't always been the case.
"Back in the day, there were some places we went to that maybe we didn’t check them as detailed as we needed to, but you’ll never see those on the show," he admitted.
The Rev. Al Sharpton is set to lead a protest march on Wall Street to urge corporate America to resist the Trump administration’s campaign to roll back diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives.

Sharpton called DEI the “civil rights fight of our generation." He and other Black leaders have called for boycotting American retailers that scaled backed policies and programs aimed at bolstering diversity and reducing discrimination in their ranks.

Low-value imports are losing their duty-free status in the U.S. this week as part of President Donald Trump's agenda for making the nation less dependent on foreign goods. A widely used customs exemption for international shipments worth $800 or less is set to end starting on Friday. Trump already ended the “de minimis” rule for inexpensive items sent from China and Hong Kong, but having to pay import taxes on small parcels from everywhere else likely will be a big change for some small businesses and online shoppers. Purchases that previously entered the U.S. without needing to clear customs will be subject to the origin country’s tariff rate, which can range from 10% to 50%.
Southwest Airlines will soon require plus-size travelers to pay for an extra seat in advance if they can't fit within the armrests of one seat. This change is part of several updates the airline is making. The new rule starts on Jan. 27, the same day Southwest begins assigning seats. Currently, plus-size passengers can pay for an extra seat in advance and later get a refund, or request a free extra seat at the airport. Under the new policy, refunds are still possible but not guaranteed. Southwest said in a statement it is updating policies to prepare for assigned seating next year.
Cracker Barrel is sticking with its new logo. For now. But the chain is also apologizing to fans who were angered when the change was announced last week.
