Google is cool. When I want to translate something, I can just paste it in a search box. Math? Who even needs a calculator when you have Chrome. And now, I'm super excited to let you guys know about another new search box feature.
Type in a basic food item like celery or shallots followed by “vs” and another food item. Google'll give you a comparison.Test it out. Go ahead, I'll wait.

Anyways, happy Googling.
