Soul Food from Nike for Your Soles

Nike launches a sneaker inspired by waffles and chicken.

The inspiration for the first sneakers ever designed by Nike? The waffle iron. That’s why the shoe, which came onto the market in 1974, was called ‘the Waffle Trainer’. Now Nike has once again drawn inspiration from waffles, but this time from the American dish ‘chicken and waffles’. The new sneaker looks remarkably like this dish. According to the sports brand, it is the favorite meal of a group of skateboarders under contract with Nike SkateBoard. They cost 110 dollars and you can order them on this site.

Google Food Program

As part of the Food Program, Google is launching the Google Food Academy. This academy is intended to teach global vendor partners how Google likes to serve food to its employees. The food Google serves its employees worldwide has by now become a phenomenon. There are cafeterias where you can order food from all over the world, and there is literally something for everyone. From Pakistani to Japanese and Spanish cuisine, it’s all there. The company wants to contribute to employees’ productivity and performance by serving good food, and thus retain talent. The Food Program should contribute to this.
