Best Foods (the folks behind Hellmann’s mayo) is running a summer campaign asking America to name its ultimate sandwich — and the regional opinions are flying. Is it a BLT? A turkey club? Grilled cheese? Bologna and cheese on Wonder Bread? Classic PB&J? Or the legendary leftover Thanksgiving sandwich? Bonus debate: If the turkey had been the national bird instead of the bald eagle, would we still be eating it so enthusiastically?  

In happier news, Minnesota seniors scored a big win. 82-year-old Anita LeBrun successfully fought for the “Grandparents Happy Hour” bill, so residents in assisted living can now legally enjoy a pinot grigio (or whatever they prefer) with friends. Cheers, Anita!  

MTV just marked its 45th anniversary, the network that turned the music video into an art form. And Carly Simon, 83, has shared a health update: she’s been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. One lingering question remains — did she really write “You’re So Vain” about Warren Beatty?
