Having become more and more acquainted with the Food Network, I've grown attached to food and food-related programs, so I was beyond excited to check out The Sporkful. While I did not grow up in New Jersey, I have vague awareness about the Pork Roll/Taylor Ham controversy, where a famed meat roll synonymous to the city has two different names, depending on where you lived in the city.

Two words: raisin mafia.
For a story that seems it would be so simple and standard, “The Raisin Situation” takes you on a whirlwind journey with Sun-Maid’s new chief executive and the turmoil he faces entering the raisin industry.
The story begins explaining the raisin industry’s issue with young people not eating raisins and would seem to find it’s solution with the hiring of a younger CEO, Harry Overly, with experience in different food companies. The story then takes a turn with Overly meeting other raisin industry “players” and him saying after that occured in the back room of a restaurant felt like a raisin mafia.

There are over 60 recognized clubs on campus, all of which are student run. Because they’re student run, and by undergrads no less, they must balance all the demands of school alongside their board member duties.
While running a club might be fulfilling, especially if the space it provides is crucial to you and others, it can certainly be stressful.

I never thought I’d hear those words come from her mouth—a young woman I’ve admired for four years – but they did. As I sat with Kiara Jacoby in a very crowded storage room of Arcadia University’s Civic and Community Engagement Center (CCEC), I realized how taxing humanitarian work is. Boxes filled with miscellaneous cleaning products, shoes, books, and everything in between were strewn about, and they were a good indication of just how many different compartments this woman’s brain held.

Nick Bilton wrote this piece for Vanity Fair in 2016, two years prior to the publication of John Carreyrou’s Bad Blood: Secrets and Lies of a Silicon Valley Startup (which I must confess that I have yet to finish, but I am getting there.) It’s a piece which clearly profiles a now-famously delusional person, whose story rose to prominence again in the last year or two as the stories of other delusional scammers became the subjects of different stories much like this one. Bilton here profiles the things which are now widely known about Holmes: her jarringly deep voice, her obsession with Steve Jobs and subsequent affinity for black turtlenecks, undisclosed and professionally inappropriate relationship with an important employee.
He also does well to shed light on many other things which have become well known details surrounding the massive and criminal decline of Theranos.

They’ve been accused of and defamed for horrendous crimes like rape and assault, but their works remain important to their successes.
