This Brewery Offers Paid ‘Pawternity’ Leave to New Dog Owners

Brew Dog, a Scottish brewery and chain of bars, has a “pawternity leave” policy for new dog owners, which allows all 1,000 employees who adopt or buy a pup to take a week off to bond with their new furry friend. It’s the first brewery in the UK to offer such a policy. Brew Dog will soon be opening a new location in Columbus, Ohio — their first US location — and the pet-friendly policy will be hopping the pond with them. Brew Dog also offers “an enhanced maternity and paternity leave and pay policy,” but unfortunately the same policy does not apply to cats, hamsters, goldfish, etc. Sorry, Fluffy.

These Sriracha Seasoning Sticks Will Change the Way You Cook

Sriracha flavoring is everywhere from vodka to McDonald’s burgers, but now the Thai-style hot sauce is available in a new form. Southern California-based Huy Fong Foods, whose version of the sauce ignited the sriracha craze, has released a line of sriracha seasoning sticks, designed to add heat to your meat dishes. The new product, marketed as Sriracha Seasoning Stix, comes in solid form, but transforms into a powder that can be used as a dry rub or to form a crust on meat. The Stix come in a tube and resemble red Pocky sticks, and are available in regular, butter garlic, and teriyaki flavors, as well as a mysterious flavor called "Blend X." The Stix will be available online only starting at the end of February.
