  • Amy's Lentil Soup Recall Excludes Michigan | Lansing News

    Amy’s Kitchen is recalling over 180,000 cans of their Organic Lentil Soup – Light in Sodium due to a potential defect in the can’s easy-open tab, which could lead to spoilage. The recall, officially posted July 14, affects cans with best-by date April 27, 2024, and lot number 60D0924. Thankfully, Michigan residents are safe — the product wasn’t distributed there. The recall covers 20+ U.S. states and parts of Canada, but Michigan is off the list. Check your pantry if you’re elsewhere — and rest easy if you’re a Michigan fan of Amy’s.

  • Michigan Court Limits Police Car Searches | Lansing News

    Michigan’s top court just handed cops a major setback: they can’t search your car just because they smell weed or know you’re under 21—no matter how small the amount. In the case of People v. Wilkins, a trooper pulled over a teen for speeding, detected marijuana, and found a gun during a warrantless search. The Supreme Court ruled that mere suspicion of a civil infraction (like underage possession) doesn’t justify violating your Fourth Amendment rights. The court emphasized that officers need probable cause of a criminal offense, not just hints of minor violations. This decision reinforces a 2025 precedent and sends a clear message: your privacy isn’t optional when it comes to police searches.

  • Four Rescued Amid Lake Huron Storm | Lansing News

    Lake Huron turned rough Wednesday, with high winds and five-foot waves forcing a small craft advisory—and four people ended up needing rescue. Conservation officers first righted a sailboat and brought its crew to shore, but the drama wasn’t over. Later, they spotted a Missouri man in a kayak who’d tried to assist the sailboat crew but got stuck—and then flipped when a wave hit. Luckily, despite not wearing a life jacket, he was pulled safely aboard. By 1 p.m., all four people, plus their kayak and paddleboard, were back at Harrisville Harbor, none injured. The DNR’s message? Always wear a life jacket, check your gear, and have a way to call for help—safety on the water isn’t optional.

  • Cyclosporiasis Surge in Michigan | Lansing News

    Michigan’s grappling with a major cyclosporiasis outbreak—over 7,600 confirmed cases, with numbers surging this past week. Health officials are sounding the alarm, linking the spike to lettuce and salad greens, though no specific brand or supplier has been identified. To stay safe, experts urge buying whole heads of lettuce, tossing outer leaves, washing inner leaves thoroughly, or cooking greens altogether. Also avoid risky foods like cilantro, basil, raspberries, and snow peas—always wash, peel, or cook produce. If you get watery diarrhea, get tested for cyclosporiasis ASAP—it’s treatable with antibiotics, but early action is crucial to avoid dehydration and complications.

  • Autism Is Complex, Not Simple | Lansing News

    Autism isn’t one-size-fits-all—and that’s the big takeaway from Michigan State’s autism conference. With diagnoses rising as more underrepresented communities gain access to care, experts and families alike stress the need for reliable info over viral myths. Personalized support, driven by lived experience like Iesha Brassell’s journey with her daughter Jade, is just as vital as science. Collaboration between researchers, clinicians, and families remains the cornerstone of progress—because real solutions come from listening to those who live it every day.
