Barbecue is a much-loved part of American food culture, with different areas having their own special flavors and cooking styles. From the Carolinas to Texas, there's a lot to learn about how barbecue styles are different across the country — and what better place to learn than at a museum!

Planned to open next spring in Kansas City, Missouri, the Museum of BBQ says it will be the world's first museum dedicated to teaching visitors about the history and culture of the cooking style.

"Barbecue is a feast for your senses," says food writer Jonathan Bender, who is opening the museum with chef Alex Pope. "Here in one of the BBQ capitals of the world, we're creating a place where you can immerse yourself in the stories of barbecue."

The museum will have rooms based on different barbecue styles, and what it calls "the main American regions of barbecue" — the Carolinas; Memphis, Tennessee; Texas; and Kansas City.



There will also be an oversized pot of "barbecue beans" for kids to play in, and a gift shop where visitors can buy things like barbecue spices, sauces and aprons.

Bender says the museum will be a place "where barbecue comes alive."

Kansas City is one of the barbecue capitals of the world, home to more than 100 local barbecue restaurants and many barbecue competitions. The city's barbecue style is famous for its "burnt ends" — charred pieces of slow-cooked beef brisket — often served with a thick, sweet, tomato-based sauce.

But the best styles and flavors are often debated among lovers of the cooking style — which is something the museum may help to encourage among its visitors!

"Barbecue isn't just food. It's culture," Bender told CNN Travel. And the founders hope visitors will come away from the museum with a new appreciation for barbecue and the community it creates.

Each fast food meal we eat in a week could increase our risk of developing depression by as much as 4%, according to a new study.

Researchers from Iran also found that eating more than two fast food meals per week could increase the risk by almost a quarter.

They wanted to look at the effect of eating fast food on both obesity and depression.

Previous studies have found that eating a lot of heavily processed foods could lead to depression.

The research team thought that eating a lot of fast food was likely to cause obesity and that this could lead to depression.

However, they found obesity was not as much of an important factor as they thought it would be, and perhaps it was fast food consumption — and not obesity — that increased the risk of depression.

The researchers looked at data from more than 31,000 people in the US, taken between 2008 and 2018.

The participants were asked how many fast food meals they ate in a typical week, and they answered a survey that asked them about symptoms of depression.

During the study period, 11% of women and 7% of men showed signs of depression, although those with higher levels of education were less likely to be depressed.

Those who ate more than two fast food meals a week had a 24% higher risk of depression compared to those who ate fewer than two fast food meals per week.

However, the researchers say they can't prove that the cause of the participants' depression was eating fast food.

Each Fast Food Meal Could Increase Depression Risk

A lo largo de la historia siempre hay personajes que, aunque vivan fuera de la ley, se vuelven "entrañables" cuando su lucha es a favor de los "oprimidos". El Tigre de Santa Julia fue conocido por ser una especie de Robin Hood mexicano que ayudaba a los pobres.

Su nombre de pila fue José de Jesús Negrete Medina, sin embrago, nadie conoce el día de su nacimiento. Se sabe que fue en agosto de 1873, en el municipio de Cuerámaro, Guanajuato. Fue Hijo de José Guadalupe Negrete y Luisa Medina, quien murió en el parto. De niño, Jesús Negrete trabajaba en el campo.
Antes de entregarse a la vida de bandolero fue soldado. Ingresó al ejército en 1895 y llegó a ser sargento segundo del Tercer Batallón de Artillería. No obstante, no comulgó con la vida de la milicia y desertó de su puesto para irse a vivir a la capital del país.
Luego de abandonar el ejército, José de Jesús Negrete llegó a vivir a la Ciudad de México, al antiguo Barrio de Santa Julia, que hoy en día abarca la colonia Tlaxpana y parte de la colonia Anáhuac, en la alcaldía Miguel Hidalgo. Desde ese entonces, y hasta la fecha, es considerada una zona con altos índices de violencia.
En este barrio conoció a Tomás Peña, Fortín Mora, Gregorio Mariscal y Pedro Mora, quienes fueron sus "compinches" en el asalto a la Hacienda de Aragón. Sin embrago, no lograron su cometido, pues fueron capturados y encerrados después del robo. Pero Jesús Negrete logró escapar de la penitenciaría, asesinando a dos guardias. Fue este crimen lo que le valió el sobrenombre de "El Tigre de Santa Julia".
Pronto se hizo famoso, pues el atentado fue publicado en el periódico El Imparcial. Contrario a lo que podría esperarse, sus actos fueron vitoreados por algunos, pues se dice que de su "botín" siempre compartía una parte con los que menos tenían.

Celebre bandolero para unos, despiadado "salteador" para otros. El Tigre alcanzó tanta popularidad que incluso le compusieron un corrido. Y años más tarde su historia fue llevada al cine...
