Tootsie Rolls in war? Yep, it’s a real—and wildly unexpected—part of military history. During the Korean War, U.S. Marines requested mortar rounds, but due to a misunderstood radio message, they received boxes of Tootsie Rolls instead. What seemed like a mistake turned into a lifesaver: the chewy candies were used to plug bullet holes in fuel lines, repair gear, and provide emergency energy in freezing conditions.

This surprising story of how a sweet treat became a battlefield tool shows the bizarre and brilliant ways soldiers adapted under pressure. It’s a tale of resilience, innovation, and… chocolate?

If you're into crazy history facts, military hacks, or unexpected war stories, this one's a must-watch.

Chinese Tradition

Chinese traditional chopsticks (传统筷) are far more than just eating utensils — they’re a living symbol of cultural grace, craftsmanship, and culinary ritual. In New Zealand, as Asian cuisine continues to soar in popularity, more Kiwis are reaching for authentic, artisan-made chopsticks as part of a broader appreciation for East Asian culture and mindful dining.

These handcrafted chopsticks — often made of bamboo, rosewood, boxwood, or lacquered hardwood — tell stories of dynasty-era etiquette, family customs, and sustainable material use. With Aotearoa’s growing Asian diaspora and interest in slow food, traditional chopsticks are now being embraced in homes, restaurants, and design spaces across the country.

From Wellington’s night markets to Auckland’s boutique kitchenware stores, traditional Chinese chopsticks are being sold not only as practical tools but as art objects and cultural gifts. They’re also becoming part of fusion dining experiences, Asian cooking classes, and even ceremonial practices like weddings or Lunar New Year celebrations.

This cultural crossover is helping New Zealanders reconnect with the values of intention, elegance, and heritage at the dinner table. Whether it’s using chopsticks to elevate a homemade dumpling feast or gifting them as a sign of respect, these humble tools are quietly reshaping how we eat — and how we connect across cultures.
