Spoiler alert! Do not read this story unless you’ve seen Wednesday’s season one finale of Gordon Ramsay’s Food Stars on Fox.
Chef and restaurateur Gordon Ramsay had a tough decision to make during Wednesday’s finale of Food Stars: should he give his $250,000 angel investment to Malibu’s Pizza Girl? Was the creator of Fat Milk more deserving? Or should he reward the guy who wants to hydrate folks and save the environment at the same time?
In the end, Ramsay placed his bet on chemist Chris Kanik, who created the world’s first printed beverage. Kanik’s Smart Cups eliminate the need to bottle and ship liquids. The flavored part is actually imprinted in powder form at the bottom of the plant-based cup; all consumers have to do is add water.

Amber Ruffin, who currently hosts The Amber Ruffin Show on Peacock, is expanding her relationship with NBC, as her comedy pilot, Non-Evil Twin, has been picked up by the network. According to Variety, the late-night host will write and star in the show, which is described as a multi-cam sitcom.

The Walt Disney Company responded to Nelson Peltz’s latest demands Thursday with a resounding “No.” The company released a letter in response to materials released by the Trian Group.
Peltz is now requesting that he, or his son if need be, serve on the Walt Disney board of directors instead of Mastercard executive Michael Froman. Froman has served on the board since 2018. In his statement, Peltz argued “the current board has failed to instill a “culture of accountability,” by overpaying executives even as the business has performed poorly; failing to align incentives with shareholders by personally owning stock and failing to heed “constructive shareholder input.”
“The Disney Board of Directors does not endorse Nelson Peltz as a nominee,” stated the official company response. “[Disney] believes the election of either Mr. Peltz or his son would threaten the strategic management of Disney during a period of important change in the media landscape.
