This Is Why Churros Can Sometimes Explode
This week in food news, a teen is making churros for Spanish class. I know what you're thinking: must be a slow news week. I thought so too. Until I watched the video about the classic Mexican crunchy pastry with a "surprise" center — and over 73 million TikTok views (and counting). Meet TikTok user Morgan — the high schooler who just wanted to ace her school project by making homemade churros. As the video's caption stated, it was her first time making the fried dough treat. She sat her father down to try her chocolate-dipped project, stating in American-accented Spanish: "a tiempo probar los churros." Everything was going great… until her dad took the first bite on camera. Cue: the explosion. Morgan let out a startled laugh after her dad's first bite made a sound like a gunshot and bits of churro flew out of his mouth. People's hilarious reactions to the video were probably a small consolation as Morgan and her dad cleaned up the dough shrapnel. One TikTok user commented: "girl, they said assignment, not assassinate." Another commented: "Spanish project or science project?" The comments were FLOODED with more than just reactions — people were trying to figure out what happened: And a few food science-savvy chimed in with their opinions. One user argued: "The churro exploded because steam got trapped inside the dough, and the pressure blew it up when it couldn't escape. Basically, [she] made a mini pastry bomb." And yep — they're right! Churro dough contains egg, which produces steam when fried. Another comment furthered the point: "That's why churros are a star shape with lines on them and not round." If you looked closely, you can see this Spanish project is missing a key feature of most churros: the ridged edges: Turns out those little ridges on the fritters aren't just for show. They increase the dough's surface area, allowing steam to escape, which is critical to preventing what happened to Morgan's dad. Trapped hot steam doesn't just ruin the churro, it can also be dangerous. People in the comments were seriously worried about her dad — if the steam had actually burned him — so they made sure to give us an update video. In an update video, the dad said, "I took a bite and thought my head was going to blow off.... I won't be able to taste anything for at least a year... my lips are burned, but I'm not dead." Morgan laughed in reaction to the exploding churro, which could make you think it was some sort of prank. One commenter suggested foul play, saying, "I'm convinced there's a reason you didn't go first lmao." But the father was just an unfortunate snafu. In the follow-up video, the dad said, "It was a total accident. 100%. We were both in shock... She's a good daughter." People were both wildly entertained by the update on the whole debacle and incredibly relieved. No word yet on whether Morgan's exploding churros earned her a passing grade — but if viral views count, she's got an A+ in the bag! If you're suddenly craving the cinnamon-sugary street food, but don't want to suffer the same fate as Morgan, check out our churro recipes by downloading the free Tasty app and searching "churro." Our "How To Make Perfect Churros Every Time" recipe tutorial is foolproof! Ironically, we even have a "molten churro bomb recipe" — But, if it's Morgan reading this, mayyyybe wait a few weeks before trying out this recipe with your dad.

ServiceNow, Inc. (NOW): Strong Beat, Raised Targets — Why Analysts Are Doubling Down on AI Workflow Powerhouse
We recently published a list of . In this article, we are going to take a look at where ServiceNow, Inc. (NYSE:NOW) stands against other AI stocks making waves today. China's foreign ministry recently released a video on its social media feeds, complete with a voice-over in American-accented English, comparing the acceptance of U.S. President Donald Trump's 145% tariffs to 'drinking poison'. 'China won't kneel down, because we know standing up for ourselves keeps the possibility of cooperation alive, while compromise snuffs it out… Imperialists are always arrogant. If they show a bit of reason it's only because they are forced to do so' A Chinese official revealed that Beijing believes yielding or compromising now would only weaken China in the future and that it would authorize Trump to change the terms later. These ongoing tariff riots aren't superficial, rather, they are a reflection of deeper tensions in the ongoing US-China rivalry, particularly over dominance in emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence. READ ALSO: and . In the initial days of the tariff frenzy, former Canadian Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland had called on President Donald Trump to take the threat of tariffs off the table. She argued that the U.S. will need Canadian energy in the race to achieve dominance in artificial intelligence. Freeland has deemed the tariffs as 'the dumbest trade war in history,' stating how the U.S.-Canada trade relationship is largely balanced when oil, gas, and electricity are excluded. She said that the tariff threat needs to be taken 'definitively off the table.' 'You are really lucky that Canada is the country that sells you oil and gas and electricity. We are a much more reliable supplier than, say, Venezuela. And the fact is, particularly with AI, America's needs for energy are only going to increase.' Canada aside, the artificial intelligence boom is being slowed due to the overall global trade war triggered by the Trump administration. Upcoming earnings reports from tech giants and utilities powering the massive data centers will reveal whether tit-for-tat tariffs, particularly between the U.S. and China, are making businesses change their plans for building data centers and other infrastructure. China plays an important role in the production of AI hardware. It was excluded from a 90-day tariff reprieve earlier. According to analysts, the 145% U.S. tariffs on Chinese goods will sharply increase data center costs if an exemption on electronics is rolled back. 'Much of the electrical infrastructure and data center equipment is manufactured outside of the U.S. In many cases this equipment is in short supply and demand is high globally. Tariffs will likely make this more challenging, especially if foreign suppliers divert this equipment to other markets.' For this article, we selected AI stocks by going through news articles, stock analysis, and press releases. These stocks are also popular among hedge funds. The hedge fund data is as of Q4 2024. Why are we interested in the stocks that hedge funds pile into?
