Best when browned: Bread turns brown when toasted because the sugars within it caramelize with the heat. This reaction is also what gives toast its flavour.
Alternative energy: If you think that all living things need the sun to survive, think again! Tube worms and other subterranean species rely on energy that stems from gases deep beneath the earth.
Mighty mountains: The Appalachian Mountains were formed 480 million years ago in the eastern part of North America. They once reached heights close to that of the Rockies and the Alps, but today are considered a more minor mountain chain after erosion.
Timed task: While recipes vary, some types of alcoholic beverages take years to finish. For example, scotch whisky must mature in a cask for a minimum of three years, but some makers let it sit for over a decade to develop its unique flavour.
Puppet debut: The famous television variety program, “The Ed Sullivan Show,” which ran from 1948 until 1971, featured Topo Gigio, the well-known puppet. Topo Gigio debuted on the show in 1963.
