What Does Your Alarm Clock Sound Like In The Morning

For those that get up bright and early each morning waking up to an alarm is nothing new. So, what does your alarm clock sound like? That's what The Mike & Carla Morning Show wanted to know this morning.

Of course everyone on the show has their own sound. Call him old fashion, but Mike O'Brian wakes up to the sound of KKLZ each and every morning. Carla Rea uses her phone and a various amount of sounds. Morty is the same, but mostly relies on his dog Squish!

This all started because Nintendo is coming out with an alarm clock that has the sounds of their games. According to The Verge, it actually offers you like 35 game sounds to choose from. Costs about $99 and just in time for Christmas.

As we talked more and more about this, Morty brought it to our attention that "gamers" normally don't sleep much. And there might be a chance they would sleep right through the sound that they're so used to. All good points!

But as we talked more and more about it, we wanted to know what your personal alarm sounded like. Boy did we get a variety of sounds and songs. That's right...a lot of people have specific songs they wake up to.

The best one we got was the intro to "Time" from Pink Floyd. One of the more obnoxious ones was a song from Systems Of A Down song called "Chop Suey". If you don't know the song, take our word for it, it'll wake you up!

Hey, whatever it takes right. We did notice that each alarm reflected the personality of that person who called in or texted in. On the other hand, a couple of people still have that internal alarm clock. They just get up on their own at the same time each morning.

Take a couple of minutes, listen to the segment and see where you fit it...and enjoy!

From fluffy pancakes and crispy bacon to fruits and omelets, the breakfast buffet offers an abundance of choices. As tempting as it may be, there are times when it's probably best to avoid certain food items to ensure a healthy and enjoyable dining experience.

Overall, breakfast buffets make a great choice if you're on the hunt for an economical meal or have specific dietary restrictions or preferences, as they allow you to handpick the items that perfectly match your requirements.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that foodborne illnesses were responsible for sickness in approximately 48 million Americans. Within this number, it is estimated that around 128,000 cases required hospitalization, and tragically, 3,000 cases resulted in fatalities.

Breakfast buffets that lack proper maintenance and supervision may fall prey to stale and unappetizing food items. Dishes sitting out for too long lose their freshness and flavor, posing a risk to your taste buds and stomach. It’s best to opt for recently prepared items to savor the true essence of a breakfast buffet.

In breakfast buffet setups, hygiene can sometimes take a backseat. With numerous diners handling the serving utensils, there is a potential for the spread of germs and contaminants. Items like communal bread baskets and self-service stations may be susceptible to bacterial growth.

According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), buffets should prioritize swapping food trays rather than refilling them with new food to prevent the spread of foodborne illnesses and ensure food safety. The duration for which an old batch of food has been sitting on the buffet is often uncertain. After two hours at room temperature, the risk of harmful microorganisms thriving on the food increases significantly. Refilling food trays creates a potential risk of cross-contamination between the fresh food and any remaining food on the tray.

When encountering a breakfast buffet, knowing which foods to skip is wise. Here's a rundown of foods to avoid at breakfast buffets.

Many establishments opt for powdered eggs instead of fresh ones, as it's a cost-effective way to prepare large quantities of scrambled eggs to cater to numerous guests at once. However, powdered eggs cannot compare to the taste, texture, and color of their fresh counterparts. Another concern lies in the fact that these eggs are pre-cooked, which means they might sit at unsafe temperatures for extended periods.

According to the FDA, serving eggs immediately after cooking is crucial to prevent foodborne illnesses. Unfortunately, in a buffet setting, it's challenging to determine how long the eggs have been sitting out.

Unless you witnessed the fruit being freshly prepared in the kitchen, it's nearly impossible to gauge how long that eye-catching fruit display has been sitting there. According to the FDA, when fruits are cut, their protective skins are breached, leaving the flesh vulnerable to the surrounding environment and any potential bacteria. This creates two primary reasons that heighten the risk of contamination. Firstly, cutting the fruit makes its water content and nutrients readily available to microorganisms. Secondly, without any heating process, disease-causing germs aren't eliminated, further contributing to the potential hazards of consuming cut fruits from a buffet display.

There’s a joy of pouring your own batter into a Belgian waffle maker, flipping it eagerly, and waiting for that gratifying green light before embellishing it with toppings. However, it's best to exercise caution and avoid the waffle station. As per TikToker Brandi Augustus, a former hotel employee, the waffle batter served there is often old and sour. Instead of disposing of the old batter, new batter is mixed with it. It's worth noting that not all places offering breakfast buffets adhere to this practice, but it's wise to stay informed and make a decision based on the circumstances.
