In 1896, New York passed a law that alcohol could only be served on Sunday if it was with a meal. New York taverns then started “selling” inedible sandwiches (served with a drink). The waiter would collect the sandwich at the end of the meal, and serve it the next customer.

Allow Me to Introduce You to the ‘Taste of Streep’ Instagram Account That Pairs Meryl Streep with Food
There’s an Instagram page out there for everything these days, and this is one of the weirder ones that I’ve come across.
The folks behind this page Photoshop the one and only Meryl Streep into various food photos, and it is truly odd.
Take a look for yourself…
1. Totally tubular.
link in bio !2. The pot pie queen.
3. It just feels right.
4. An interesting choice.
shrimp keychains back in stock! 5. It looks like she’s having a good time.
6. Care for some pumpkin pie?
7. Time to cool off.
8. Not good for you, but go ahead and dive in.
9. Now I’m getting hungry.
10. This might be my favorite.
Okay, those images sure are odd…but also strangely compelling.
Have you seen any really bizarre Instagram pages lately?

Before and After Photos of Dogs Who Got Adopted
It’s wonderful to see the transformation that animals go through after they are adopted and given unconditional love.
In the before photos, you can see how dejected, sad, and depressed these dogs were. But the after pics? A completely different story. A 100% turnaround!
You might want to get a box of tissues because these photos are very sweet.
Here are 16 moving before and after pics of some lucky pooches.
1. Look at her now.
My gorgeous pupper with her puppies before I adopted her and now 3.5 years later from BeforeNAfterAdoption
2. From the streets.
Reddit, meet Anna! She was living on the streets of Italy before my mom brought her to Germany. Now she’s happy and loves her buddy Iluq. from BeforeNAfterAdoption
3. An amazing transformation.
The shelter I volunteer for has incredible before and after’s from BeforeNAfterAdoption
4. Awful “before” photo.
A Korean family rescued this golden from a breeding facility. Went from 15 lbs to a healthy 60 lbs. from BeforeNAfterAdoption
5. Living her best life!
From a severe case of mange and dumpster diving in the streets of San Antonio to 3 months later loving life, growing, and learning sign language! Meet our deaf dog, Rue! from BeforeNAfterAdoption
6. Not scary at all.
No one wanted to adopt him because of his cropped ears and "scary" looking face. He had stopped eating at the pound and was severely underweight. Now Bronco is healthy, always smiling, and loved by everyone he meets. from BeforeNAfterAdoption
7. Spoiled rotten!
Adoption Day vs Today. She has come a long way and is spoiled rotten. from BeforeNAfterAdoption

9. You’ve come a long way.
New foster pup Nic, she’s come so far already! (Donation page in comments) from BeforeNAfterAdoption
10. A new lease on life.
Timmy was hit over the head with a blunt object by his racing trainer. After surgery to repair his broken skull, therapy to help him regain proper use of his legs and plenty of TLC he was rehomed and lived everyday to the fullest! from BeforeNAfterAdoption
11. “The love of my life.”
I found her 4years ago, covered in blisters, no hair and starved…who knew she’d be the love of my life. She’s the greatest from BeforeNAfterAdoption
12. Happy as a clam.
Rescued a skeleton and ended up with this sweet girl who is always smiling. from BeforeNAfterAdoption
13. Fluffy, fat, and happy.
Lucia, right after she was rescued from a hoarder. You couldn’t touch her. Curious but terrified. Fast forward 2 years she’s fluffy and fat and happy.
from BeforeNAfterAdoption
14. All settled in.
Rescued Last Night, Settled In 2 Hours Later and Slept With Me All Night from BeforeNAfterAdoption
15. Look at this guy!
Our pug had a hard start to life. Raised by a trucker who couldn’t take care of him and get him the treatment he needed. Then a vet who didn’t diagnose him correctly. Now he’s a healthy stud-muffin! from BeforeNAfterAdoption
16. Dex is a survivor.
This is Dex. He fought for his life after having been left for dead on the streets of Austin. After 10 weeks of being nursed back to health by Pug Rescue Austin, we were lucky enough to adopt him in our loving home. from BeforeNAfterAdoption
That just warms the heart, doesn’t it?
