• Vegan Eats: The Roman Bar's Chocolate-Dipped Honey-Peach Apricot Fruit Bar

  San Rafael's Roman Bar (so named for its owner, Roman Starno) has a sweet, vegan treat with its chocolate-dipped fruit bars that were originally inspired by an experiment with chocolate and Fig Newtons in Starno's kitchen almost 20 years ago. A whole wheat pastry/cookie concoction liberally enrobed in dark chocolate and filled with blueberry or, in this case, honey-peach apricot, it does a good job with its flavors and, more importantly with vegan products, moist texture. It can be had for $1.

  Daniel C. BrittDrool Brittania: British cougars Rita Sangha (left), 39, and Bea Cameron, 45, make nice to the camera during August's "National Cougar Convention" ​Do people complain to Rich Gosse about the use of the term "cougar" -- previously applied to a 1970s-era muscle car and, of course, a beast -- for older women with a yen for younger men?

• Fiorello's Caramel Balsamic Ice Cream Inspires A Certain Frantic Obsessiveness

  It's like that.​Maybe the rambling, effusive message we left on the San Rafael-based company's answering machine at 11 p.m. had a different effect than the one we intended. What else were we to do? We had questions to ask. A friend had brought over a stunningly good pint of caramel balsamic ice cream ($8 at Whole Foods), and our brains were caked in a sweet, slightly sour, and perfectly creamy Fiorello's film. We found a half-constructed Web site with a Sistine Chapel motif and no helpful
