It was a historic day for *Sinners*, with **Ryan Coogler**’s film scoring a record 16 nominations, easily passing the previous record of 14 held by *All About Eve*, *Titanic* and *La La Land*. Before we dive into all the nominees, let’s all laugh at the Academy giving *Avatar: Fire and Ash* — a movie featuring fully CGI characters — a nomination for Costume Design ...

I love to picture Kinnaman sitting in a makeup chair for hours as the *For All Mankind*special effects team layers him prosthetics in order to play an increasingly ancient version of Ed Baldwin while all of his costars get a few brushes of gray in their hair and head to set.

Sometimes that vigilance means scoping out the seasonal aisle at the grocery store. Other times it means scrolling through the Target app looking for items with the “New at 🎯” note next to them. That’s how I realized a bunch of new varieties of Sour Patch Kids just hit stores. (Or at least became available at Target, putting them on my radar.) I quickly added six of these items to my cart: **Sour Patch Kids Cherry**, **Sour Patch Kids MVP Top Picks Mix**, **Sour Patch Kids Fruits Tropical Mix**, **Sour Patch Kids Besties**, **Sour Patch Kids Candy Strips** and **Sour Patch Kids Chews**.

That changes right now. You’re about to dig into the BIGGEST Taco Bell review in **Snackology** history. The fast food chain launched its **Luxe Value Menu** for Taco Bell Rewards Members last week, and the entire ten-item lineup is set to become available for everyone this Thursday. Taco Bell’s revamped value menu picks up where its Cravings Menu left off, with every single item available to be purchased for your eating pleasure for less than three bucks a piece.

After watching my Buffalo Bills suffer another catastrophic, heartbreaking postseason loss earlier on Saturday, I honestly didn’t expect to stay up and watch *SNL*. I was out of town and bouncing back from what I’m pretty sure was some kind of food poisoning courtesy of a central Pennsylvania fast-food stop, but how could I skip (or delay) watching *SNL*’s first episode of 2026? It turns out I wouldn’t have missed anything.
