Saturday afternoon I was sitting in a McDonald’s chomping away on one of their Southwestern salads when I looked up at the TV that was soundlessly playing to see the breaking news that Paul Newman had passed away.

I put my fork down, looked down at my salad and realized the dressing on it was Newman’s own Southwestern salad dressing.  Freaky.

Paul made some great films–as well as great popcorn, salad dressing, pasta sauce and any other foods I’m missing at this moment.  He will be greatly missed not only as an actor or food entrepreneur, but also as someone who did some good in the world with his charity work.  Rest in peace, Mr. Newman.
