�Minecraft Dungeons� Is A Diablo-Like RPG That Makes The Genre Even More Interesting Than Before
The story is quite simple and grounded where a villager has turned evil and it is your job to stop him from achieving his goal. You will have to go through nine different missions to achieve that goal by hacking and slashing your way. For a dungeon crawler, the combat system feels quite addictive and intuitive even though we expected quite the opposite of the game. While the game will not appease classic Minecraft fans where you get to build stuff, the game is directed more towards fans who want something different. © Mojang While the story is quite simple, in typical Minecraft fashion, there isnât much to talk about here as the game doesnât really get you invested enough. Donât expect it to match up to Diablo because the source material is quite ambiguous when compared to Diabloâs lore. Due to this very reason, we struggled to care about any NPCs or did not have story-impacting decisions like the Telltale Minecraft games.
The story can be completed in six hours which is not really long for a dungeon crawler but the replayability factor is high as you can make different builds with each play-through. Even in the general market hub, we could not buy additional gear like arrows which made it quite annoying to progress further. We could, however, buy armour with different skins and gamble using our looted emeralds. We would have loved to see some more flexibility and options in the market hub but sadly there isnât enough here. © Mojang If youâve played Minecraft in recent years, you will be happy to know that you can enchant your items and armour for additional buffs that will help you in combat. These enchantments help you in making a different kind of build, especially when playing with others. Different players can have different enchantments or builds to tackle foe which makes combinations an exciting feature to use when playing with friends. However, as you upgrade your gear, the monsterâs toughness also levels up so that the game doesnât become too easy and poses a challenge for the player. © Mojang Coming to the bosses, these are pinnacle moments in the game that you really need to be prepared for. The bosses can be found in the middle of the map and you will need all of your resources to battle them. For example, you will end up using a lot of health potions to keep the fight going and want conserve arrows so that you donât have to them head-on. If you run out of arrows, you will have to kill them with melee attacks but that is not advisable since bosses can kill you in mere seconds. This is where character builds come in handy as you need someone who can basically heal other players.
The âElectrified Warhammerâ is the most important item one can use during these boss battles. âFlaming arrowsâ also deliver additional damage which should be paired with the Fox armour so that you can get away in tight situations. This is where the game shines, it gives players the flexibility to create important builds without being limited to a certain class. The Final Say © Mojang When taking everything into a consideration, Minecraft Dungeons is an excellent hack and slash game with very little RPG mechanics. It doesnât have skill trees or complicated loot customisations. It really is meant for a casual player who wants to dip their toes into the genre and thatâs why we adore this game. Sure, we would love to see more lore and a story that we actually care about but the gameplay makes up for it.
The game is also quite polished for a genre that is known to have issues at launch. However, we do recommend checking out some Minecraft lore before getting started. If you are looking for a co-op multiplayer game that needs some co-ordination and also appeals to a franchise youâre familiar with; Minecraft Dungeons is a great game to spend some hours during this lockdown season.

Forget Work From Home, Mark Zuckerberg Wants People To Jack Into VR For Work & It's Pretty Sick
Since nobody knows when it'll be completely safe to get back to work, we wonder what the next frontier of remote working will be? Well, Facebook thinks the answer lies in VR.
Facebook has outlined its vision for remote working with the help of some of its products. This vision for the "future of work and the next computing platform," details how the company is going to leverage its Workplace, Portal, and Oculus to support remote work.
The most eye-catching development, however, has got to be the "mixed reality workspace concept." There's an 8-second video showing what working in the mixed reality world would look like. You can see a user working through an AR/VR headset while they drag a virtual window from off the side and move it between two virtual windows. © Unsplash You can also see the person typing something on the keyword and the words appear on the web app in AR/VR. The video then ends with the user exiting the mixed reality world revealing nothing but a single monitor deskspace. That's just fascinating.
According to a Facebook spokesperson who spoke to the folks over at Input , it's indeed real footage. "This is real footage running on a prototype. We're always experimenting with future concepts using different hardware configurations as part of our proof-of-experience process," the spokesperson said. That being said, we still don't see ourselves working in an AR/VR workspace, at least in the near future. But given the current conditions, we won't be surprised to see more development in this space. Source: Facebook

5 Seduction Songs In Bollywood Films That Are Too Cringey & Should Have Never Existed
"Ye maal gaadi tu dhakka kaga Dhakka kaga re dhakka kaga"
A song from Andaz, this song came out back in 1994 with the film. The film starred Karishma Kapoor, Anil Kapoor, Juhi Chawla, Raj Babbar, Shakti Kapoor. The music is produced by Bappi Lahiri. Maal Gaadi was used as sexual innuendo in the song. There is so much cringe in this song that only 90s kids will recognise instantly. We wonder why the censor board let this film be.
2. 'Tu Mere Agal Bagal Hai' From Phata Poster Nikhla Hero
âHai tujhpe right mera, tu hai delight mera
Tera rasta jo roku, chaukne ka nahinâ
The lyrics of this song suggest that the person singing the song has a sense of entitlement considering he's willing to go to any length to get this girl, and this, he feels is a true marker of being a lover or being in love. Clearly, songwriters didn't think about how concepts like consent could be important to this dynamic. In response, the girl reciprocates, this is definitely is a cause for concern considering the problematic message the song is sending out to the audience. Unfortunately, this song is not the only one with problematic lyrics like these.
3. 'Jaaneman Aah' From Dishoom
"Jaaneman aah, jaaneman aah
Gale lag ja, jaaneman aah"
On a lighter note, any song with an intro like that is too cringe worthy to be considered a seductive song, we believe. But then again, this song is just representative of countless Bollywood seductive songs that honestly make no sense, lyrically. More often than not, they're just random words put together, sometimes even made-up words to that effect.
4. 'Tinku Jiya' From Yamla Pagla Deewana
"Pal Pal Na Mane Tinku Jiya, Haan Tinku Jiya
Isak Ka Manjan Ghisey Hai Piya"
With 96M views on Youtube and counting, we don't understand how a song with actor Dharmendra flirting with a much younger woman along with his sons who are too eager to join him while he's at it became so likable. Not just the lyrics, this is a song with a video you definitely want to unsee right after watching it.
5. 'Chu Chu Chu - Kyun Sharmaye Kyu Ghabraye' From Cheetah
"lekin ye manva dole jab man ki chidya bole chu chu chun, chu chu chun, chu chu chun"
You probably can't listen to this song with your parents. This song is filled with sexual innuendos. If you haven't seen this song yet, we recommend you watch the video, stat!

Ajinkya Rahane Opens Up On Overcoming The Fear Of Speaking In English When Touring Abroad
However, the 31-year-old wasnât always this self-assured and there were two major reasons behind it. One was the fact that he was very shy since his childhood and two, he hesitated in conversing in English during his early years with the squad.
We got in touch with the cricketer to speak about his fear with the language, how he overcame it eventually and how he wants to help millions of Indians who are struggling in their daily lives due to the fact that they arenât comfortable speaking in English. View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@ajinkyarahane)
âWhen I was a student at SV Joshi High School in Dombivli near Mumbai, I only used to play cricket and attending all the classes wasnât possible. Back then I was there, it was a Marathi-medium school and speaking in English wasnât a priority.â
âI remember my first tour to Dubai when I was 14-years-old for the U15 Asia Cup, and it was then that I realised that I had to learn the language if I wanted to be confident in front of international athletes.â View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@ajinkyarahane) âMy first U19 tour in New Zealand was also a big wake-up call for me. In India, with your teammates, you can talk to them in Hindi and you are fine but when you are travelling, Hindi wonât take you that far. From small things like ordering food and asking for directions to more important things like adding to your confidence and self-belief, learning the language played a big role in all of that,â Rahane said.
âDuring the first few years of my international cricketing career, I used to get a little shy and nervous when I wanted to ask a question to any foreign player or when I needed to know something about the pitch by the groundsman," he added. View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@ajinkyarahane)
âWhenever I used to play a good match and it was my time to get interviewed, I always kept my answers short and tried to be done with the questions as quickly as possible because I didnât want to make a mistake,â Rahane opened up.
It is because of this reason that Rahane partnered with ELSA Corp which acts as a personal virtual pronunciation coach to help others get over the same problem more efficiently and quickly than the cricketer did himself. View this post on InstagramA post shared by (@ajinkyarahane)
âI used to keep thinking about things like what if I made a mistake, what if I mispronounce a word, what will people think of me. ELSA can help you look after all that. It is just an app which looks after the way you speak, nobody is watching you or judging you. So even if you screw up, you wonât feel shy and will be able to work on your errors better,â he said.

Oscar Worthy Indian Short Films Which Are Better Than Mainstream Bollywood Films
1. Adheen Directed by Yash Verma, and produced by Large Short Films, Adheen is a beautifully conceptualised film. Spoiler alert, there is a surprise twist towards the end. However, it has been eased in so seamlessly, that it does not feel jarring at all. The beauty of the film lies in the issues it focuses on - fracturing familial relationships, exactly how much can a person handle or rather bear with their loved ones. If not for all these things, then watch it for Sanjay Mishraâs performance. 2. Hickey Directed by Divyansh Pandit, Hickey does not have any notable names associated with itself, and neither does it tackle some deeply rooted social angst. Rather it is a pretty well made feel-good kind of short film, that one will find very relatable. And yes, it revolves around exactly what youâre thinking - the connotations of a hickey, and what it entails. 3. Bebaak Okay, this is a really powerful short film. There are amazing performances, the plot of the film is very nuanced and tightly constructed, and it deals with some of the most pertinent questions that we as individuals have from our society - mainly about our position in it, and our aspirations, and how do we strike a balance between the two. There are some really powerful performances from Nawazzuddin Siddiqui and Vipin Sharma. BTW, it won a Filmfare for the best short film(Fiction). 4. Devi There simply are no words to describe just how powerful and how well throughout Priyanka Banerjeeâs Devi is. We wonât get into the details of the plot; we suggest you watch the film for that, but let us remind you, you simply cannot afford to miss this one. What we can tell you, is that the performances that we get from Kajol, Shruti Hassan, and Neha Dhupia, for that matter, is absolutely stunning. 5. Budh (Awakening) Budh may come across as very esoteric, and a film that is very societal in its approach. While that interpretation definitely holds true, it also works wonderfully when you focus on an individual. Just like Bebaak, Budh also asks some uneasy, but equally important questions about oneâs standing in the society, and what affect your gender has on your standing. Do give it a watch. After watching these, wouldnât you agree that some of our feature filmmakers need to go back to filmmaking school?

6 Movies That Were Actually Shot Inside The Real Homes Of Celebrities
2. Sanju At Sanjay Dutt's House © YouTube Not the entire movie, but definitely a few shots from the film Sanju, played by Ranbir Kapoor had several scenes that were shot at Sanjay Dutt's actual home which is at Imperial Heights in Mumbai.

5. Bombay Talkies At Karan Johar's And Big B's House © Dharma Productions © Dharma Productons Bombay Talkies had a lot of short stories in it. Rani Mukherji's and Randeep Hooda's story in it which was about a distressed couple was actually a house and not a set. The shooting location was Karan Johar's real home and while he was also the director of this film, it was more than a relaxed job for everyone. Not just that, another scene from this film which starred Amitabh Bachchan was also shot in Big B's real house, Pratiksha, situated in Mumbai.
6. Fan At SRK's Mannat © YouTube SRK who played a double role in psychological thriller movie Fan, also gave us a peek of his house, Mannat, situated in Bandra, Mumbai.

5 Facts About Sundarbans Which Show What A Majestic Bio-Diversity Marvel Cyclone Amphan Has Ravaged
2. UNESCO World Heritage Site © NASA The forestâs 10,000 sq. km were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987, joining the ranks of Indiaâs 38 listed areas, such as the city of Jaipur, the Taj Mahal and colonial art-deco buildings of South Mumbai.
3. The Local Population © Reuters Fertile and home to millions of agriculturists, the Sundarbans happen to be one of the most populated forested regions in the world, with 4.5 million inhabitants. This is true especially on the Bangladeshi side, where their activities contribute the lionâs share of forest produce for the whole country. Some of these villagers also have unique and interesting ways of making a living in such tough conditions - such as using otters to help them guide fish into nets, and harvesting honey from the hives of giant Asian honey bees.
4. The Mangroves © Wikimedia The characteristic tree of the forest is the sundari, after which the forest is named - also known as the looking-glass mangrove in English. These trees are a landmark feature of the entire region, and aside from giving the forest its own unique beauty, also help protect the quality of soil in the region, while providing the forest a defence against seasonal floods that strike every monsoon.
5. An Incredible Display of Wildlife © Reuters The Sundarbans provides a unique ecosystem and a rich wildlife habitat. According to 2015 estimates, the forests were home to around 150 royal bengal tigers, which are infamous for their attacks on local villages, resulting in around 50 human deaths each year. It isnât just all tigers though - the forests are also home to their prey the chital deer and wild pigs, as well as their distant cousin, the fishing cat.
All of these stunning examples of natural beauty and culture have been hit hard by the Amphan cyclone - you can look towards a comprehensive list of donations here.

Looks Like The MCU Is The New 'Sooryavansham' Because Marvel Movies Are On TV All The Damn Time
© Marvel Remember Sooryavansham? It's a movie none of us ever actually went out of our way to watch, but we've all seen it multiple times. Why? Because it was always playing on TV, it aired so often that it became a meme, and people would joke every year about how after IPL is over, Set Max can continue with Sooryavansham again.
© RVCJ
Now, Marvel has become the new Sooryavansham, tbh. There have been so many days where you start off with maybe an Iron Man in the morning, then there's the OG Avengers for an afternoon screening, Endgame in Hindi takes on the evening show, and to finish it all off, a good old Endgame (again) for a late-night show. (It looks like I made this up, but this has legit happened on multiple occasions in just this week)
© Marvel I'm one of the biggest Marvel fans out there, but even I'm saying that there are other movies as well. Please just once in a while air those, people will love it. Yes, we love seeing Avengers Assemble, but limits are being tested now.

But, still that happens, I'm pretty sure no one minds the Marvel reruns that much, even if it has become the new Sooryavansham.

'Betaal' Cast Gives 5 Reasons To Watch The Zombie Series & Now It's On Top Of Our Binge-Watch List
Viineet, who helms the show as troubled counter-insurgency officer Vikram ans is caught battling his own dark past as the supernatural threat comes to surface. He describes the cast as âfreshâ, highlighting how itâs the first time theyâve come together to work on a project. âThe training we received before the shoot was very intense. We had to learn how to move in a formation just as an army squad does, handle weapons and act in full army gear throughout the show to maintain realism. Eventually, we began to feel like a squad ourselves!â 2. Zombies! © Netflix While zombies did make an appearance in 2013âs Go Goa Gone, they provided more comic relief than actual thrills - and when it comes to bringing the undead to life onscreen, Betaal sure didnât pull any punches.
âThis was one of the things that got me really excited for this film,â admits Viineet. âThe premise of a two-century-old redcoat army from the British returning to attack modern CIPD soldiers - something that they have never been trained for. This taps into a fear of the unknown - the same kind of fear that we all have when it comes to, for example, the COVID-19 menace we all face today - an invisible threat we canât yet understand.â 3. Grey Lines In The Armed Forces © Netflix With great power comes great responsibility - and when it comes to quashing out common people in the name of development, armed forces around the world havenât had the best record - a moral dilemma that the show boldly reflects in both its overarching story and its characters.
âPatrick [Graham] really likes to paint his world with this disillusion that we live in, that everything is alright,â points out Aahana. âHe wanted to introduce a comment on the state of the world we live in, and itâs right to not shy away from it, like when the CIPD officers evacuate villagers from their homes. I come from a family of officers myself - and thereâs a lot of times when my mother, who was in the police - she may not agree with what the government is saying or what she has to do, but when youâre on the ground on duty, in your uniform - you have to follow orders, or youâll be court-marshalled. This can be a dilemma for any soldier as well, and in this film when they face a supernatural threat, the stakes are even higher.â 4. Terrifyingly Real Special Effects © Netflix Gruesome, gory and downright visceral - Betaal doesnât shy away from getting down and dirty when it comes to a horror flick, and part of this reflects in the incredible prosthetics and special effects work. âI had prosthetics in the shoot,â recalls Aahana - whose character wears a mean scar, telling a story all of its own. âI remember sitting in makeup for two hours every day, along with the performers who are masked and playing the zombies all through the shoot - thereâs a lot that goes into making the show as believable as possible.â
âI really think that this is Indiaâs fitting answer,â adds Viineet, âto a global arena that has not seen something of this calibre come out of India - having Red Chillies VFX on board as well brings out something that the world just hasnât seen yet in the horror-thriller space. 5. An Atmosphere To Die For © Netflix Grahamâs Ghoul, in its attempt to capture the essence of desolate interrogation camps, was shot in a âleaky, damp, and horrible smelling place with no sunlightâ, in the words of its lead, Radhika Apte. This time around, things werenât quite so physically uncomfortable for the cast - though the locations were little short of terrifying.
âIt used to be so scary to shoot in that place!â exclaimed Aahana, reminiscing about one of the locations in nearby Khandala, which she calls âthe haunted houseâ. âPatrickâs team along with the production designers have made the sets so incredibly believable that humko sacchi phat gayi after arriving!â âThe Betaal mountain thatâs showcased in this series,â adds Viineet, âwas shot deep in the interiors of Maharashtra. The production designers found a very unique location to capture this remote, isolated effect - where the crew prepared a small village dwelling where the story begins to unfold. From there, to the jungles, you see our characters explore the massive, imposing tunnels we found in Igatpuri - yeh sab kaafi mazedaar tha when it came to picturising the shoots themselves.â Catch Viineet and Aahana as Commander Sirohi and Deputy Commander Ahluwalia in Betaal, releasing on Netflix this Sunday, 24th May.

Aged 74, Vince McMahon's 'Beast' Workout & Jaw-Dropping Physique Is Putting Young Guns To Shame
Which Irish club did Roy Keane make his debut with? How many Eurovision titles have Ireland won?
We gave @WWESheamus the ultimate Irish general knowledge quiz. pic.twitter.com/oLkpeiR3in â JOE (@JOE_co_uk) April 27, 2020 While Triple H feels it's impossible to hang out with his father-in-law, Seamus called his WWE boss "a machine". "The guyâs a machine, mate. Iâve heard stories of him squatting nearly 700 pounds, which I canât do. I donât think Iâve ever been able to squat 700 pounds! Heâs insane in the gym, heâll train sometimes at two oâclock in the morning. Heâs someone I think I would love to have as my 100th episode of Celtic Warrior Workouts," Seamus told Joe last month. © Twitter/@WWE But, the most famous story about McMahon's passion for fitness is penned by Chris Jericho in his book No Is a Four-Letter Word: How I Failed Spelling but Succeeded in Life. âThereâs nothing that he would ask you to do that he wouldnât do himself. A great example is we were in Orlando doing a show, I had to do press in New York early in the morning. He had me come on his private jet, we flew back from Orlando to New York, had some drinks, listened to some tunes, had a great time, landed at 4:30, both drunk.
"He goes, âWhat are you doing?â [I say] Iâm going home to pass out because I had to get up at 6:30 for press. He goes, âIâm going to the gym, come with me.â Iâm like, âIâm not going to the gym at 4:30, whatâs wrong with you?â Heâs like, âI have to go to work.â (I say) âSo do I.â I get a text when I wake up the next morning at 6:30, super-hungover (and) feeling like crap, from my 72-year-old boss whoâs like bench-pressing 275 pounds giving me the finger and this is 6 in the morning or whatever. Thatâs him, he just works, and it rubs off on you.â Well, many would say that, given the fact that McMahon is their boss, the WWE stars ought to shower plaudits on the old man. But, are the statements really true? If so, then what does a 74-year-old man like McMahon, father of two and grandfather of five children, really do in the gym? Here's the answer. The WWE CEO, depending on his busy schedule, trains four days a week, focusing on each body part once a week. He alternates between 'Heavy' and 'Not-So-Heavy' days for each body part. He trains calves every third day and abs twice a week. According to Rippeder, here's what McMahon's daily workout routine looks like: McMahon begins the week with a focus on his chest and triceps. On his heavy day, his exercises include barbell bench press (5 sets), hammer-strength incline press (3 sets), pec-deck flye machine (3 sets), bench press (3 sets), dip machine (3) and cable pressdown (3 sets). On a not-so-heavy day, he does incline dumbbell press (5 sets), incline smith-machine press (4 sets), barbell bench press (4 sets), overhead extension (3 sets), cable pressdown (3 sets) and dumbbell kickback (3 sets). © Twitter/@WWE On the second day, he prioritises back and biceps. His heavy day would include exercises like lat pulldown (4 sets), bent-over row (4 sets), seated cable row (3 sets), barbell curl (3 sets), EZ-bar preacher curl (3 sets) and standing dumbbell curl (3 sets). A not-so-heavy day reads: pull-up (4 sets), lat pulldown (4 sets), one-arm dumbbell row (3 sets), one-arm lat pulldown (3 sets), hammer-strength shrug (3 sets), standing dumbbell curl (3 sets), machine preacher curl (3 sets) and standing cable curl (3 sets).
The third day is all about delts (deltoid muscles) for McMahon. For his heavy day, McMahon does dumbbell lateral raise (3 sets), barbell overhead press (3 sets) and rear-delt flye machine (3 sets). A not-so-heavy day includes cable lateral raise (3 sets), overhead press (3 sets) and wide-grip upright row (3 sets). © Twitter/@WWE The WWE boss saves the fourth and last day of the workout for his legs. On a heavy day, he does leg extension (3 sets), safety-bar squat (4 sets), leg press (5 sets), lying leg curl (4 sets) and Romanian deadlift (4 sets). A not-so-heavy day includes seated leg curl (6 sets), leg press (5 sets), stationary lunge (3 sets) and leg extension (3 sets).
For someone who got featured on the cover of Muscle & Fitness (M&F) magazine in 2015 when he was 69, McMahon had revealed that he's 240 pounds with five per cent body fat and capable of chest pressing over 200 kg. "Iâm still making gains. Age really doesnât have anything to do with it," he told M&F. Five years later, given his workout, it seems McMahon is still making gains and putting young guns to shame at the age of 74.

10 Important Steps To Avoid Binge Eating & Stay Away From Weight Gain During Lockdown
1. Stick To A 4-Meal Plan © iStock People often mistake restlessness with being hungry and start eating whatever they lay their eyes on. Stick to the meals pattern of four major meals- breakfast, lunch, evening snack, and dinner and decide a specific time for each meal.
2. Decide A Weekly MenuThe idea is simple, if you know what you will be eating for the next seven days given the resources you already have, you wonât go out of your way to binge on anything else. Deciding a menu is a great way to do so. 3. Drink Liquids Between Meals © iStock Liquids such as buttermilk, lemon juice, milk, soup, fruit infused water, ginger and lemon decoction, sabja in lemon juice, etc. can be great fillers which prevent you from feeling hungry after one of the four meals They are also low in calories so you wouldnât have to worry about that.
4. Say No To Sugary DrinksAvoid sugary beverages like syrups, fruit juice, carbonated beverages, etc. 5. Snack On Low-Calorie Foods © iStock Cucumber with yogurt dip, apple with peanut Butter, carrot with dip, dark chocolate 1-2pcs, fruit yogurt and sukha bhel are also some very good alternatives to some of the rather unhealthy snacking decisions such as a bowl of instant noodles or sweets and can prevent, if not reverse, you gaining weight.
6. Exercise Once A DayNo matter how many times youâd have heard this, one canât stress this point enough. Move, jump, walk a few kilometers during the day. Make sure to stay active by incorporating a workout as a part of your daily routine to maintain energy expenditure. 7. Include Fiber In Your Meals © iStock If you want to feel full for longer, fibrous foods are your best friends. Incorporating fiber in your meals in the form of vegetables and salads will also help you look after other health issues such as your cholesterol level, maintaining blood glucose levels, and increase in satiety. It also helps tackle constipation.
8. Say No To Processed Foods © iStock Who doesnât like to munch on a bag of masala chips while working on a project or watching your favourite TV show? But if you are in the middle of a struggle to lose weight, you donât have a bigger enemy than processed food. Biscuits, chips, chiwda, cup noodles -- try to resist them. Instead stock up on foods like ready to make idli and dosa batter, or opt for quick snacks like omelets, seviya upma, oats, moong dal dosa, etc. that have nutritional value.
9. Self-Prep Your SnacksMaking your own snack can have a lot of positive impact on you and your diet. Since you will be cooking them all by yourself, you will learn to appreciate the food better, take your time eating it and try to stay away from cooking it more often (the last part is a personal opinion because I am a horrible cook). 10. Have Healthy Backup Snacks © iStock Keep some backup snack options like sprouts, nuts, peanuts, dried fruits, roasted Chana etc. to snack, as a healthy alternative to deep fried or sugary food items like Wafers, Biscuits, etc.
