Over the years, the term "butterscotch" has been used to designate a range of different culinary products, although it most commonly refers to a sort of confectionery or dessert. The name itself is considered to be a mix of the words butter and burn, and it most likely relates to the candy-making process.

"I ended up opening one of his closets where he kept all of his suits, and I simply shoved the suits out of the way and said, 'put your head in here,'" Wood explained on The Week's SoundWorks Collection podcast.

Although rattlesnakes lack limbs, they are nevertheless effective predators. This is partially because rattlesnakes can see smaller animals even in total darkness because to heat-sensitive pits on each side of their heads.
