How the annual Great Chefs Event in Philadelphia aims to "really change the world"
Dozens of renowned chefs from across the country will gather this weekend at the Navy Yard in Philadelphia for the Great Chefs Event, a culinary celebration benefiting the Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation, which funds cutting-edge research and supports families affected by childhood cancer. Among the star-studded lineup is Chef Nok Suntaranon of Kalaya, whose soulful Southern Thai dishes add both flavor and feeling to the cause. "We can really change the world by doing good," Suntaranon said. "We just focus on one thing — to honor Alex and her dream." The Great Chefs Event has become a signature moment on Philadelphia's culinary calendar, blending gourmet plates with a powerful purpose. More than 40 chefs donate their time, ingredients and talent to raise funds that directly support pediatric cancer research and support programs for families in treatment. Alexandra "Alex" Scott started Alex's Lemonade Stand after she was diagnosed with neuroblastoma at just 4 years old. Her goal: Raise money to find cures for children with cancer. By the time Alex died at the age of 8, she had raised more than $1 million. Her legacy lives on through Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation, and the Great Chefs Event that's now in its 18th year. Now, her legacy lives on through events like these, where every bite tells a story and every donation brings researchers one step closer to a cure. In the past, Great Chefs has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to support pediatric cancer research and families in need. The event is sold out, but you can still make a donation to Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation.

I Tried the New Limited-Edition Utz Flavor, and They're The Best Potato Chips I've Ever Had
This article may contain affiliate links that Yahoo and/or the publisher may receive a commission from if you buy a product or service through those links. As soon as summer comes around, a tall glass of ice-cold lemonade goes straight back into my drinking routine (truly nothing better than it on a hot day!). While chips are an evergreen snack on my roster — and usually eaten alongside that glass of lemonade — I've never thought to literally put them together. But that's exactly what Utz did with its latest Lemonade Potato Chips (yes, you read that right). Just when I thought there couldn't possibly be any more chip ideas. Utz didn't just launch this chip for fun. The brand has partnered with Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation to donate a portion of each bag sold to its efforts in funding critical research and support for children battling cancer. I can't think of a better reason to break open a bag. This limited-edition flavor is available through August, while supplies last, online at Amazon and Instacart, as well as in stores at retailers nationwide like Walmart. Utz will donate 9 cents from every bag sold up to a maximum of $25,000 to Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation for Childhood Cancer, according to the brand's website. Walmart $3 (was $3) Buy Now The chips feature Utz classic wafer-thin, crispy potatoes that are dusted with a lemonade seasoning. They are sold in 7.75- ounce bags and, to my mind, are the first lemonade-flavored chips on shelves. I was thrilled to try them. Going into this chip, I thought that it would be a dessert chip (kind of like a cinnamon-sugar snack?) because of the sweetness I usually associate with lemonade. After one bite, I was surprised — in the best way possible. I've never tasted anything like it. There is absolutely a sweetness to these chips, but they aren't nearly as sweet as I had expected and still very much a classic salty chip. The best way that I could describe it is if you had a salt and vinegar chip with a touch of lemon sugar? Wonderful! These chips are also incredibly thin and crunchy — I could easily see my friends and I go through a bag quickly (if I decide to share them, that is). It's tangy, sweet, salty, and I will be stocking up on several bags before they're gone for Utz Lemonade Potato Chips, $2.50 for 7.75 ounces at WalmartWould you try this chip combination?
