Getting a head start for National Chicken Wings Day happening this Friday...so here's a run down of our favorites! So of course there was a poll done of what's your favorite flavor of wings? The Mike & Carla Morning Show rundown the Top 3 favorites here in the U.S. BBQ flavor being #1, followed by Ranch flavored at #2 and then at #3 is Hot Buffalo! Carla Rea even mentioned that her favorite tends to be "Spicy" wings...and that's the only thing she loves spicy!

We also found out that 73% of people will NOT judge you for lickin' the fingers after eating your chicken wings and most people say that they will only dip their wings once, however, those that dip multiple times are considered a little crazy! The average dip per wing...5 times!!!!!

Of course its "Shark Week" and a poll found out how many of us are really afraid of sharks...and The M&C Morning Show also talked about traveling throughout the summer and how much luggage is being lost!

All that and much more in this edition of a "Few Things We Think You Should Know"!

When you travel to a different country, are there some foods that you get hooked on and when you come back home, you just have a craving for it? And of course the worst part is since you're back home, you can't get it! Well, a list of American foods foreigners miss after leaving the U.S. came out and you might be a bit surprised.

There's actually a thread online where tourists are talking about American foods, desserts and drinks they REALLY crave when they're back home. Now keep in mind that these are people from different countries...and some countries may have things that other countries don't have, but apparently, these are some of the things they miss the most:

#5 Mozzarella Sticks

...but here's the catch, you have to have the marinara sauce to dip the sticks in or it doesn't finish in the Top 5!

#4 Chick-fil-A

We are surprised that you can't get Chik-fil-A everywhere in the world, but clearly you can't. Keep in mind that Wendy's was also mentioned as well as In-n-Out Burger, Taco Bell and Cracker Barrel!

#3 Maple Syrup

Probably the easiest to send anywhere is a nice fresh bottle of maple syrup...and clearly this person is NOT from Canada!

#2 Great Mexican Food
