If you're like most of us, you love fried food. Or at least french fries. But there's no getting around the fact that traditional, deep-fried foods are unhealthy, and also extremely hard, messy and sometimes even dangerous to make at home. Enter the Philips Advance Air Fryer.
When Blade Runner was first released in 1982, it showed us a glimpse of what whiskey might look in the future: Johnnie Walker in a specially shaped bottle. And while their bottles won't look exactly like that in 2019, Johnnie Walker has gone ahead and given us an idea for future whiskies, teaming master blender Jim Beveridge filmmaker Denis Villeneuve to bring us Black Label: The Director's Cut.

We're not always fans of fruit-flavored beers; sure, there are some good ones, but a lot of the time they come across a lot funkier than a refreshing beer should be. A bit of lemon or orange? Sure. Cherry? Not so much. Still, you gotta 21st Amendment, and their many unique, patriotically-themed, liberty-lovin' flavors and brews. And this summer, they've put out a very unique, bold wheat brew, cleverly entitled "Hell or High Watermelon."
