Ocean explorers found a real-life SpongeBob SquarePants off the New England coastline. They spotted a sea sponge in the Atlantic next to a pink starfish that looks like his friend Patrick. While the pair were inseparable companions in the show, the real relationship between these organisms is rather more like that of a lion and a wildebeest. Starfish are predators, and eat sponges if they can find them.

Tomorrow is National Mustard Day. So the makers of French’s Mustard just unveiled mustard-flavored hot dog buns. They actually baked real mustard into the bread.

Unfortunately, it’ll be hard to get your hands on them, and they won’t be in grocery stores. At least not unless they’re a huge hit. But they posted a recipe online if you want to try making them yourself.
